MAINTENANCE
1. Battery Replacement: The 265 will display a battery
symbol when the internal 9 Volt battery needs
replacement. The battery is replaced as follows:
a. Disconnect and remove all test leads
from live circuits and from the 265.
b. Loosen the screw from the back of the 265 bat-
tery cover.
c. Remove the battery compartment cover.
d. Remove old battery and replace with new bat-
tery. Observe the correct polarity on the battery.
e. Reassemble the instrument in reverse
order from above.
2. Cleaning your 265:
Use a mild detergent and slightly damp cloth to clean
the surfaces of the 265.

MEASURING RESISTANCE
Do not attempt to make
resistance measurements
with circuit energized. For
best results, remove the
resistor completely from
the circuit before mea-
suring.
NOTE: To make accurate low ohm mea-
surements, short the test leads together
and record the resistance reading. Deduct
this value from actual readings.
Measurement Procedure:
1. Disconnect power to circuit to be
measured.
2. Plug black test lead into the COM input
jack.
3. Plug the red test lead into the V/ W input
jack.
4. Set the rotary switch to the “ON” position.
5. Connect test leads to circuit to be
measured.
7. Read the resistance on the TPI 100.
