2.2.9 Low Battery Indication and LCD Backlight
In any operating mode dosimeter continuously monitors battery voltage. The battery symbol
is displayed on the left upper side of the screen. Completely filled symbol indicates nominal battery
voltage. The filled portion of the battery symbol decreases as the battery voltage drops. When the
battery voltage drops to its minimum, the battery symbol is empty. In case of critical battery
discharge, dosimeter produces sound and light warning signals and indicates "REPLACE THE
BATTERY" message and then switches the LCD indication off. In this case battery must be
replaced (2.1.3.3).
To activate indication on the LCD press any button.
After battery replacement it is necessary to set the internal clock of the dosimeter.
