3 MAINTENANCE
3.1 Maintenance involves preventive services, battery replacement and regular
performance check (according to 2.4.3 - 2.4.5).
3.2 Preventive services include external examination, dusting and decontamination in
the event of radioactive contamination.
For decontamination wipe the case of the instrument using a cloth wetted with ethanol.
3.3 Battery replacement:
- unscrew and remove the cover of the battery compartment;
- remove the old battery;
- insert the battery into the compartment making sure that the positive (“+”) end of the
battery is inserted first;
- replace the battery compartment cover.
After the battery is replaced, the LCD will display all segments, and then the
