NOTE:
• If the green indicator turns on while checking the cable using the checker to indicate
that the cable is normal, you should still shake and twist the cable while the indicator
is still turned on to check that there are no open circuits. If even a momentary
indication of a problem appears, replace the cable.
• The power will turn off automatically after 10 seconds. If you press the ENTER switch,
the operation will be repeated for another 10 seconds.
• If two batteries (main checker unit and battery bracket) are fitted while checking is
in progress, the orange and red indicators on the main checker unit will flash
simultaneously, so if this happens, remove the battery from the battery bracket.
