General Maintenance

This instrument performs an internal check of the unit just before the unit indicates that it is ready to measure. If the unit displays that it is ready to measure, then the system check was successfully completed and the unit is ready for use.

Battery

Replace the iPac Battery when it stops holding a charge.

Battery Replacement:

1. On the back of the iPac is the battery door. Open it by pushing the latch towards the door and lifting the door.

2. Disconnect the battery harness from the iPac.

3. Replace the battery and connect the battery harness to the iPac.

Note: Be sure that the battery is oriented correctly so that the door can close properly. If the battery is oriented incorrectly, the harness may become damaged and the door may not close.

If the battery harness becomes damaged, the battery will need to be replaced. The battery should connect at the harness, the wires should lay flat along the side of the battery compartment, and then attach to the battery at the bottom. If the wires are bunched up at the top, near the point of connection to the iPac, then the battery is oriented incorrectly.

4. Attach the door and ensure that it latches closed.

5. Charge the battery for approximately 10 hours before using.

Note: Refer to Disposal section of this manual for your local laws and ordinances regarding the proper disposal of the battery.
