Should one of the following scenarios occur, the batteries must be replaced: SCENARIO 1: When powering on the tester: The “power on” LED in the tip of the tester

changes from a steady green to a blinking green and a series of beeping sounds is generated, the tester then turns off.

SCENARIO 2: When operating the tester: The LEDs dim and the tone fades. To replace the batteries:

1. Press the locking tab6 inward and remove the battery cap inward and remove the batter

2. Remove and recycle the two spent AAA batteries.

3. Install two new AAA batteries, with the positive (+) side facing into the tester as shown7.

4. Slide the battery cap onto the tester until it snaps back into place.

Remove the batteries when not in use for a prolonged period of time. Do not expose to high temperatures or humidity. After a period of storage in extreme conditions exceeding the limits mentioned in the General Specifications section, allow the tester to return to normal operating conditions before using.

STANDARD RECEPTACLES

1. Verify tester operation by testing on a known live and correctly wired receptacle.

2. Plug tester into receptacle.

3. Compare the illuminated lights on the tester to the key code printed on the tester.

4. If the tester indicates that the receptacle is not wired correctly, consult a qualified electrician.
