INITIAL
CHECK-OUT
PROCEDURE
2-48.
Now
that
you
have
installed
the
battery,
and
know
where
everything
is
and
how
it
works,
let’s
make
sure
that
the
unit
is
working
properly.
We'll
run
through
a
simple
check-
out
procedure
starting
with
turn-on.
No
equipment
other
than
test
leads
will
be
required.
If
a
problem
is
encountered,
please
check
battery,
fuse,
switch
setting,
and
test
lead
connection
before
contacting
your
nearest
John
Fluke
Service
Center.
NOTE
This
procedure
is
intended
to
verify
overall
instrument
operation,
and
is
not
meant
as
a
substitute
for
the
formal
Performance

given
in
Section
4.
Limits
shown
exceed
the
