instructions they contain. This document must be kept in
a safe place and passed on together with the device.
Function/Application
Contactless test device for localising electrical voltage (230 V AC)
in cables, sockets, lampholders and fuses. Visual and acoustic signals
indicate whether a voltage is present.

Safety instructions

• The device must only be used in accordance with its intended
purpose and within the scope of the specifications.
• The measuring tools and accessories are not toys.
Keep out of reach of children.
• Modifications or changes to the device are not permitted, this will
otherwise invalidate the approval and safety specifications.
• Do not expose the device to mechanical stress, extreme temperatures
or significant vibration.
• If you are working with voltages higher than 24 V/AC / 60 V/DC,
exercise extreme caution. Touching the electrical conductors at such
voltages poses a risk of life-threatening electric shocks.
• If the device comes into contact with moisture or other conductive-
residue, work must not be carried out under voltage. At and above
voltages of 24 V/AC / 60 V/DC, the presence of moisture creates the
risk of life-threatening electric shocks.
• Clean and dry the device before use.
• When using the device outdoors, make sure that the weather conditions
are appropriate and/or that suitable protection measures are taken.
• In overvoltage category III (CAT III - 1000 V), the voltage between the
test device and earth must not exceed 1000 V.
• Before taking any measurements, make sure that both the area to
be tested (e.g. a line), the test device and the accessories used
(e.g. connection cable) are in proper working order. Test the device
by connecting it to known voltage sources (e.g. a 230 V socket in
the case of AC testing).
• The device must no longer be used if one or more of its functions
fail or the battery charge is weak.
• Observe the safety precautions of local and national authorities
relating to the correct use of the device and any prescribed safety
equipment (e.g. electrician's safety gloves).
• Do not work alone in the vicinity of hazardous electrical installations
and only under the guidance of a qualified electrician.
• The measuring device must not be used as a substitute for a two-
pole zero potential test.
Additional information on use
Observe the technical safety regulations for working on electrical systems,
especially: 1. Safely isolating from power supply, 2. Securing to prevent
system being switched on again, 3. Checking zero potential, two-pole,
4. Earthing and short-circuiting, 5. Securing and covering adjacent live
components.
