Your Digital insulation Tester’s battery is situated under
TM
the tester. Your ENERSAVE display will indicate you
when battery need to be replaced.
Disconnect the test leads from the instrument, remove the
battery cover and the batteries.
Replace with 8 alkaline 1.5V R6 or L6 batteries, taking

Message.
Let the instrument discharge the circuit (in the case of
capacitive system) or make sure that the circuit under test is
not live.
7.14 Auto-Discharge.
At Auto-Stop or test completion, the Instrument Automatically
discharge the system under Insulation test, so that the
dangerous high voltage is discharged. The Auto-Discharge
can be observed on the L.C.D so that the operator only
removes for the leads when the discharge is complete.
During discharge, beep occurs so that the user does wait for
the complete discharge of the system under test.
This is indicated by a one second long beep accompanied by
