Using the included resistance check loop to
inspect the instrument
Before turning on the instrument, be sure to read Operating Pre-
cautions (p.8).
Inspecting the instrument with the resistance check loop
Verify that there is no foreign matter lodged between the tips of
the clamp sensor and that the sensor can be closed and opened
smoothly. If so, clamp the included resistance check loop and
verify that the instrument is operating properly. Verify that a
value within the allowable range is displayed for each loop.
