15. Corrective Measures in Case of Failure
If the instrument does not operate properly after taking the corrective measures shown
below or any other failure that is not covered here occurs, contact the vendor from which
you purchased the instrument.
Failures
•Thetesterdisplaysnothingafterturningthefunctionswitchtotheonposition.
•Thedisplayislightincolor.
•Themeasuredvaluesareerroneous.
Items to Check
•Thebatteriesareinstalledproperlyandtheirpowerlevelsarenotlow.
•Themeasuringprobesareconnectedcorrectlyandarenotdamaged.
•Whetherthefailurereoccursafterturningoffthepowerandretryingtheoperation.
Error Messages
Err.0 An internal operation failure.
Turn off the power and retry the operation.
* If the failure reoccurs, the tester needs repairing.
Err.1 Cannot save the comparator or memory settings.
Measurement functions other than the comparator and
memory functions operate normally.
Settingsanddatasavedwithouttheerrorindication(Err.1)canbeused.
* If the failure reoccurs, the tester needs repairing.
Err.2 An internal operation failure.
Turn off the power and retry the operation.
* If the failure reoccurs, the tester needs repairing.

14.1 Double-action 1000-V Function
ThetesterisequippedwiththeRELEASEbuttontoprotectthemeasuredcircuitfrom
damage due to inadvertent measurement at 1000 V.
To select the 1000 V rating, turn the function switch to the position
while pressing this button.
To cancel the 1000 V rating, turn the function switch to the off position or
another rating position.

In this case, stop the measurement immediately and check the power supply voltage.
14.3 Locking the MEAS Key (for Continuous Measurement)
TheMEASkey,whenpulleduptotheright,canbelockedtoensurethekeyremains
turned on. Use this mechanism when making continuous measurement over
a prolonged period.
Note, however, that leaving the key turned on for an unreasonably long time will
accelerate the discharge of the batteries.
14.4 HOLD Feature
Measured insulation resistances are automatically held for approximately
veseconds.TurningofftheMEASkeyinitiatesholding.
14.5 Auto Power-off
The tester is automatically turned off when no key operations are performed
for 10 minutes.
Thebuzzersounds9andahalfminutesafterthelastkeyoperation(at1-secintervals).
Ifanymeasurementorkeyoperationisnotmadewhilethebuzzersounds,
the tester is turned off. However, it is not turned off when measurement is in
progress or an alarm occurs.
To use the tester after the auto power-off is triggered,
press the
key or the key, or turn the function switch to the off
position once before proceeding with the desired operation.
