The accuracy information applies in an adjusted, stable temperature state.
Plugging in the mains unit, charging the battery or adding digital probes can
distort this temporarily, and additional errors may occur.
2
The accuracy specification applies immediately after zeroing of the sensor. For
long-term measurements, mains operation with fully-charged battery is
recommended.
