1.Safety Information
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, product
damage or personal injury, please follow the
safety instructions described in the user manual.
read the user’s manual before using the meter. If
the equipment is used in a manner not specified
by the manufacturer, the protection provided by
the equipment may be impaired.
WARNING
This meter is designed and manufactured according to safety
requirements of EN61010-1, EN61010-2-030, EN61010-2-033,
EN61010-031 concerning electronic measuring instruments
with a measurement CAT III 600V and pollution degree 2 and
safety requirements for electrical measurement and test.
Follow all safety instructions to ensure safe use of the
instrument.
Following these guidelines will yield many years of satisfactory
service.
1.1 Preparing for use
1.1.1During use, observe all standard safety rules:
-Use protection to prevent electric shock.
-Do not misuse the instrument.
1.1.2 Check the meter to see if there was any damage
during transit.
1.1.3 Check test leads for cracks or breaks in the
insulation on the wires.
1.1.4 If the test leads need to be replaced, meter’s safety
can only be guaranteed with similar spec leads.
1.2 During Use
1.2.1 Always make sure the rotary switch is at the
correct function and range.
1.2.2 Do not exceed the protection limit values indicated
for each function
1.2.3 Do not touch test lead tips while connected to a
measurement circuit
1.2.4 In manual range if the value to be measured is
unknown, select the highest range first and lower
as needed.
1.2.5 Do not measure voltages that may exceed 600V
between the terminals and ground.
1.2.6 Always be careful when working with voltages
above 60V DC or 30V AC RMS. Keep fingers
behind the probe barriers while measuring.
1.2.7 Never connect the meter leads across a voltage
source while the rotary switch is in the resistance,
diode or continuity mode. Doing so can damage
the meter.
1.2.8 Do not perform resistance, diode and continuity
measurements on powered circuits.
1.2.9 Disconnect the test leads from the circuit before
changing functions on the rotary switch.
1.2.10 Do not place the meter in an environment with
high pressure/temperature, dust, explosive gas
or vapor.
1.2.11 Stop using the meter if any abnormalities or
failures occur.
1.2.12 Do not connect the test leads to a circuit without
the battery securely fastened.
1.2.13 Do not store the meter in an area of direct sunlight,
high temperature or high humidity.
