3.2 Rules for use
• COMPANO 100 is exclusively intended for the application area specified in this manual. The
manufacturer/distributors are not liable for damage resulting from a use other than the specified
operation. The user alone assumes all responsibility and risk.
• Use both the COMPANO 100 test set and its accessories only when they are in a technically
sound condition.
• The COMPANO 100 test set does not contain any serviceable parts. Do not open the test set, or
remove any of its housing components. The test set's lid with the attached QR code sticker is
removable, though.
• Do not carry out any modifications, extensions or adaptations at the COMPANO 100.
• Use COMPANO 100 in observance of all existing safety requirements from national and
international standards for accident prevention and environmental protection.

The manual must be read by all people working with COMPANO 100.
In addition to the manual and the applicable regulations for accident prevention in the country and

in the documentation.
• The mains cable (cable to the OMICRON-supplied battery charger) must be rated for the nominal

recommend to only use COMPANO 100 in combination with the original cable supplied by
OMICRON accessories together with the test set.
• Test leads wired to tall test objects must be sufficiently mechanically secured. Be aware of the
hazard of falling adapters or cables.
• Do not block access to safety-relevant test set components, such as the emergency stop button. In
