1. Safety Precautions
This product complies with the requirements of the following European Community Directives:
2004/108/EC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) and 2006/95/EC (Low Voltage) as amended by
2004/22/EC (CE-Marking).
To ensure safe operation of the equipment and eliminate the danger of serious injury due to short-
circuits (arcing), the following safety precautions must be observed.
Damages resulting from failure to observe these safety precautions are exempt from any legal
claims whatever.
* Do not use this instrument for high-energy industrial installation measurement.
* Prior to connection of the equipment to the mains, check that the available mains voltage
corresponds to the voltage setting of the equipment.
* Connect the mains plug of the equipment only to a mains outlet with earth connection.
* Do not place the equipment on damp or wet surfaces.
* 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 modes or functions.
* Do not cover the ventilation slots of the cabinet to ensure that 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
knockover of the container)
* Check test leads and probes for faulty insulation or bare wires before connection to the
equipment.
* Please use only 4mm-safety test leads to ensure immaculate function.
* To avoid electric 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 the warning labels and other info on the equipment.
* The measurement instrument is not to be to operated unattended.
* Always start with the highest measuring range when measuring unknown values.
* 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 stabilize at room temperature before taking up measurement (important
for exact measurements).
* Do not input values over the maximum range of each measurement to avoid damages of the
meter.
* Periodically wipe the cabinet with a damp cloth and mid detergent. Do not use abrasives or
solvents.
* The meter is suitable 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
* Do not place the equipment face-down on any table or work bench to prevent damaging the
controls at the front.
* Opening the equipment and service – and repair work must only be performed by qualified
service personnel
* -Measuring instruments don’t belong to children hands.-
