Safety Information - PeakTech 1655 Manual De Instrucciones

* Do not operate the equipment near strong magnetic fields (motors, transformers etc.).
* Keep hot soldering irons or guns away from the equipment.
* Allow the equipment to stabilize at room temperature before taking up measurement (important
for exact measurements).
* Do not input values over the maximum range of each measurement to avoid damages of the
meter.
* Do not turn the rotary function switch during voltage measurement, otherwise the meter could
be damaged.
* Use caution when working with voltages above 35V DC or 25V AC. These Voltages pose
shock hazard.
Replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator "BAT" appears. With a low battery, the
*
meter might produce false reading that can lead to electric shock and personal injury.
* Fetch out the battery when the meter will not be used for long period.
* Periodically wipe the cabinet with a damp cloth and mid detergent. Do not use abrasives or
solvents.
* The meter is suitable for indoor use only
* Do not operate the meter before the cabinet has been closed and screwed safely as terminal
can carry voltage.
* Do not store the meter in a place of explosive, inflammable substances.
* Do not modify the equipment in any way
Opening the equipment and service – and repair work must only be performed by qualified
*
service personnel
Measuring instruments don't belong to children hands.

However, electrical noise or intense electromagnetic fields in the vicinity of the equipment, may
disturb the measurement circuit. Measuring instruments will also respond to unwanted signals that
may be present within the measurement circuit. Users should exercise care and take appropriate
precautions to avoid misleading results when making measurement in the presence of
electromagnetic interference.
