CAUTION
If any protective function of the instrument is damaged, immediately request
repair or dispose of the instrument.
If you must store the instrument, label it as damaged.

for example under conditions of high temperature and humidity
• If the instrument has been subjected to stress due to shipment under harsh conditions
• If the instrument is wet or soiled with a large amount of oil or dust (If the instrument gets wet or
oil and dust get inside it, internal insulation may deteriorate, posing a signicant risk of electric
shock or re.)

Calibration
The calibration interval depends on factors such as the operating conditions and environment.
Please determine the appropriate calibration interval based on your operating conditions and
environment and have Hioki calibrate the instrument accordingly on a regular basis.
Backing up data
When repairing or calibrating the instrument, we may initialize it. It is recommended to back up (save/
write) data such as the settings and measured data before requesting service.
