HP-37A
DIGITAL MULTIMETER
OPERATOR’S MANUAL
1. Overview
The multimeter is characterized at slim size, portable, stable performance
and anti-dropping capacity. Using 3 1/2 digits LCD monitor with character
28mm high, they offer clear readings. With overall circuitry design
centering on large-scale IC
A
/D converters in conjunction and over-load
protection circuit, the meters give excellent performance and exquisite
making as a handy utility instrument.
The meters can be used to measure DC &
A
C voltage, DC current,
resistance, temperature, battery test, positive diode voltage fall and
audible continuit
y
.

3. Safety Information
3-1 The meter is designed according to IEC-1010 concerning electronic
measuring instruments with an over-voltage category 600
V
(CAT Ⅲ)and
pollution 2.
3-2 Follow all safety and operating instructions to ensure that the meter is
used safely and is kept in good operating condition.
3-3 safety symbols:
Important safety information, refer to the operating manual.
Dangerous voltage may be presence.
Double insulation (protection Class II)
4. Special Cautions fo
r
Operation
4-1 The meters can be safe only according to standard procedures when
used in conjunctions with the supplied test leads. To replace damaged test
leads with only the same model or same electric specifications.
4-2 To avid ris
k
of electric shock, do not use the meters before the cover is
in place.
4-3 The range switch should be right position for the testing.
4-4 To avoid electric shoc
k
and damaging the instruments, the input
signals are forbidden to exceed the specified limits.
4-5 When measuring TV set or switched powe r, attention should be paid to
the possible pulses that may bring destruction to the circuit.
4-6 Range switch position is forbidden to be changed at random during
measurement.
4-7 Take caution against shock in the course of measuring voltage higher
than DC 60V &
A
C30V.
4-8 Protection fuse should be replaced only with same type and same
specification.
4-9

fter operation is finished, set function switch at OFF range to save
battery power.
4-10 If the meter is without usage for long time, take out battery to avoid
damage by battery leakage.
