9.0 LITHIUM BATTERY REPLACEMENT
(CONTINUED)
Use the following procedure to replace the lithium battery cell.
The battery is not completely discharged; therefore, DO NOT short the
terminals on the battery with any conductive material.
Internal circuit card components are extremely sensitive to electrostatic
discharge. Be careful not to touch internal circuitry prior to discharging any
static buildup on your person. T o discharge yourself, touch a grounded metal
object such as conduit or a metal enclosure interior.
1. Disconnect power from the meter at the unit external circuit breaker.
2. Remove the battery from its holder and place on a non-conductive surface.
3. Install new battery into the PCB battery holder.
NOTE: Care should be taken to ensure that the replacement battery is installed with
the same polarity as the battery that was removed. No damage to the unit or
battery will occur if battery is inadvertently installed in the wrong polarity.
4. Dispose of the used battery in accordance with the manufacturer’s (Panasonic’s)
instructions.
