To ensure the safe use of the device, please follow all the safety and operating
instructions given in this manual.
-
Before using the device, make sure that test leads and the device are in good
condition and the device is working properly (e.g. by connecting to known
voltage sources).
-
The device may not be used if the housing or the test leads are damaged, if
one or more functions are not working, if functions are not displayed, or if
you suspect that something is wrong.
-
If the safety of the user cannot be guaranteed, the device may not be
operated and secured against use.
-
While using this device, hold the test leads only behind the finger guards - do
not touch the probes.
-
Never ground yourself while making electrical measurements. Do not touch
any exposed metal pipes, fittings etc., which could have a ground potential.
Ensure that your body is isolated by using dry clothes, rubber shoes, rubber
mats or other approved insulation materials.
-
Operate the device in a way that it is not difficult to operate the network
separators.
-
Always adjust the rotary switch to the desired measuring range before
starting the measurement and engage the switch in the proper measuring
range.
-
If the magnitude of the signal to be measured is not known, always start with
the highest measuring range on the rotary switch and then reduce
step-by-step.
-
If the measuring range needs to be changed during the measurement,
remove the probes from the circuit first.
