3. Setup and Battery Installation

The Kalttoy Voltage Tester requires three LR41 button batteries for operation. Follow these steps to install or replace the batteries:

1. Rotate and Open: Rotate and open the top metal cap of the tester.
2. Remove Old Batteries: Carefully take out any existing batteries and the spring in sequence.
3. Insert New Batteries: Load three new LR41 button batteries, ensuring correct polarity.
4. Replace Spring and Cap: Place the spring back into position and then tighten the top metal cap securely.
5. Self-Test: Contact the pen tip and cap to conduct a self-test. A green light indicates normal operation.

4. Operation

This device offers non-contact voltage detection and can also be used as a screwdriver.

Non-Contact Voltage Detection:

1. Hold Correctly: When using the voltage detection function, ensure your hand is in contact with the top metal cap of the tester. This completes the circuit for detection.
2. Approach Conductor: Bring the tip of the tester close to the wire or outlet you wish to test.
3. Observe Indicator:
   • If the light is green, it indicates a zero line (neutral).
   • If the light is red and green, it indicates a firewire (live).
