- Protect the appliance from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high humidity, moisture, flammable gases, steam and solvents.
- Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
-
If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
-
is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
- Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height can damage the product.
- Consult an expert when in doubt about the operation, safety or connection of the appliance.
- Maintenance, modifications and repairs must only be completed by a technician or an authorised repair centre.
- If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating instructions, contact our technical support service or other technical personnel.
- In commercial institutions, the accident prevention regulations of the Employer's Liability Insurance Association for Electrical Systems and Operating Materials are to be observed.
- In schools, training centres, computer and self-help workshops, handling of meters must be supervised by trained personnel in a responsible manner.
- Before each use verify tester operation by measuring a known voltage.
b) Connected devices
- Observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices which are connected to the product.
c) Fuse
- A defective fuse must be replaced with a new fuse with the same specifications. Do not repair or bridge a defective fuse, as this may cause a fire or result in fatal electric shock!
d) (Rechargeable) batteries
- Correct polarity must be observed while inserting the (rechargeable) battery.
- The (rechargeable) batteries should be removed from the device if it is not used for a long period of time to avoid damage through leaking. Leaking or damaged (rechargeable) batteries might cause acid burns when in contact with skin, therefore use suitable protective gloves to handle corrupted (rechargeable) batteries.
- (Rechargeable) batteries must be kept out of reach of children. Do not leave (rechargeable) batteries lying around, as there is risk, that children or pets swallow them.
- All (rechargeable) batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing old and new (rechargeable) batteries in the device can lead to (rechargeable) battery leakage and device damage.
- (Rechargeable) batteries must not be dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into fire. Never recharge non-rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of explosion!
e) Multimeter
- Do not switch the meter on after it has been taken from a cold to a warm environment. The condensation that forms might destroy the device. Allow the device to reach room temperature before switching it on.
- Check that the multimeter is set to the correct function before each measurement.
- To avoid electric shock, do not touch the connections/measuring points directly or indirectly during measurement. Check the meter for damage before each measurement. Never carry out any measurements if the protecting insulation is defective (torn, ripped off etc.)
-
Do not use the during thunderstorms.
-
Never operate the product in direct proximity of strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields or transmitter aerials or HF generators. This could affect measurement.
- For accurate measurements, replace the battery when the low battery symbol appears on the display.
- Pay attention to the information besides the warning signs at the test lead terminals. The measured voltage or current must not exceed the values shown!
- Never operate the meter when the case is open. !DANGER TO LIFE!
f) Probes
- The probe cables have a wear indicator. When damaged, a second insulation layer in a different colour becomes visible. The measuring accessories must no longer be used and must be replaced.
- During measuring, do not grip beyond the grip range markings indicated on the measuring probes.
- When using the measuring probes without cover caps, measurements between the meter and the earth potential must not be performed above the measuring category CAT II.
- When measuring in the measuring category CAT III. Measuring probes with

text_image
CAT II CAT IIIcover caps (max. 4 mm free contact length) must be used to avoid accidental short circuits during measurement. They are enclosed.
- The measuring probes must be removed from the measured object each time the measuring function is changed.
- Risk of fatal electric shock! Be careful when dealing with voltages higher than AC 30 Vr.m.s, 42.4 Vpeak or DC 60 V.
- Probe assemblies to be used for MAINS measurements should meet EN 61010-031 standard, rated CAT III 600 V, 10 A or better.
