A battery power indicator is located in the upper left corner of the display screen. When the battery power indicator flashes, change the battery as soon as possible. 6. Battery Installing and connecting the battery: 1 - Remove the battery cover from the back of the rapid oil test gauge. 2 - Take the battery out. 3 - Line up the positive and negative terminals on the new battery with the corresponding connectors of the connecting cap and snap the cap on the battery terminals. 4 - Insert the battery with connected cap into the battery compartment of the instrument and replace the cover. Note: When first powered on after the battery has been replaced, the instrument clock must be adjusted

7 Rapid Oil Gauge Operating the Rapid Oil Gauge 7. Preserving the Rapid Oil Gauge Rapid Oil Gauge Operating the Rapid Oil Gauge 1 Power on / Main run screen / Power off In order to ensure the accuracy of subsequent tests and to preserve the instrument over time, the Rapid Oil Gauge shall always be kept clean and dry : Any trace of oil, solutions or reagents shall be removed from the gauge and reaction flask after each use. Special attention shall be paid to the measuring port which must be kept perfectly free, and to the internal O ring. Use dedicated cleaning fabric or absorbing paper for cleaning purpose. Proper cleaning solvents include White Spirit or Petroleum Distillates p/n DP9206. Never use toluene or other benzene derivatives. It is recommended to grease from time to time the internal O ring using silicon free grease p/n DP6108. The battery compartment cap and USB port cap shall be kept in place at all times in order to protect the internal electronics of the instrument. Press any of the 3 front panel keys to turn the Rapid Oil Gauge on. The instrument initializes and displays its serial number and embedded software version for a few seconds. The instrument then displays the Main Run Screen which offers three functions: [], [] and [] Press the key corresponding to the function you want to run: Select [] to adjust the internal clock and the oil monitoring function of your instrument Select [] to run a water test or a BN test (optional) Select [] to view the test history Refer to the appropriate section of this manual for details on each function. The instrument turns off automatically if not used for 60 seconds in order to preserve battery life. Note: When first powered on after the battery has been replaced, the instrument accesses automatically the clock adjustment function. The Rapid Oil Gauge has an internal clock which is used to time stamp test results when they are stored in the instrument memory.
