* Connect the main plugs of the equipment only to a mains outlet with earth connection.
* Do not exceed the maximum permissible input rating
* Replace a defective fuse only with a fuse of the original rating. Never short-circuit fuse or fuse holding
* Disconnect test leads or probe from the measuring circuit before switching models or functions.
* Check the test leads and probes for faulty insulation or bare wires before connection to the equipment
* Do not cover the ventilation slots of the cabinet to ensure that the air is able to circulate freely inside
* Do not insert metal objects into the equipment by way of the ventilation slots
* Do not place water-filled containers on the equipment (danger of short-circuit in case of know-over the
container)
* To avoid electrical shock, do not operate this product in wet or damp conditions. Conduct measuring works
only in dry clothing and rubber shoes, i. e. on isolating mats
* Never touch the tips of the test leads or probe
* Comply with warning labels and other info on the equipment
* Do not subject the equipment to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, humidity or dampness
* Do not subject the equipment to shocks or strong vibrations
* Do not operate the equipment near strong magnetic fields (motors, transformers etc.)
* Keep hot soldering irons or guns away from the equipment
* Allow the equipment to stabilise at room temperature before taking up measurement important for exact
measurements)
* Periodically wipe the cabinet with a damp cloth and mid detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents
* The meter is for indoor use only.
* Do not operate the meter before the cabinet has been closed and screwed safely as terminal can carry
voltage.
* Do not store the meter in a place of explosive, inflammable substances
* Do not modify the equipment in any way
* Opening the equipment and service- and repair work must only be performed by qualified service
personnel
* The instrument must be set up so that the power plug can removed from the socket easily.
* -Measuring instruments don't belong to children hands-
