LCD display :
Only alkaline batteries of the type 9 V IEC 6LR61 should be used to attain the maximum running time of 1 year. We recommend e.g.the manufacturers Varta and Energizer.
v To prevent data transfer errors, the battery must be replaced
in good time.
It can occur that the LCD display blanks if the outside tempera­ture is very high or very low.This has no effect whatsoever on the retention of data and the correct transmission of data. The LCD display will return when temperature range is back to normal operating range.
