occuring following a repair done other than by its After
Sales Service or approved repairers.
7.1 Changing the battery
The clamp must be disconnected from any external electrical
source and must not be in contact with the cable.
I Set the switch to OFF
I Slide a screwdriver into the slot at the top of the battery
cover (rear of the clamp) and push the battery cover
upwards.
I Replace the used battery by a 9 V battery, type LF22;
observe the polarities.
I Install the battery in its housing, then install the battery
cover.
7.2 Storage
If the clamp is not used for a period of more than 60 days,
remove the battery and store it separately.

The clamp must be disconnected from any external
electrical source and must not be holding the cable.
I Clean the unit and jaws with a cloth slightly moistened with
soapy water. Clean off with a damp cloth. Then dry quickly
with a cloth or pulsed air.
I Do not splash water onto the clamp.
I Keep the gap between the jaws in a state of perfect
cleanliness.
