Completely read through the operating instructions, the
„Warranty and Additional Information" booklet as well as
!
the latest information under the internet link at the end
of these instructions. Follow the instructions they contain.
This document must be kept in a safe place and passed on
together with the device.
Function / Application
Non-contact tester for locating electrical voltage (230 VAC) in
cables, sockets, bulb sockets, fuses, control cabinet and system
components. Visual and acoustic signals as well as vibration
indicate whether a voltage is present.

General 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, moisture or significant vibration.
– If you are working with voltages higher than 24 V/AC rms / 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 rms / 60 V/DC, the presence of
moisture creates the risk of life-threatening electric shocks.
– Use this device only within closed rooms, do not expose it to moisture
or to rain, since there is otherwise the risk of an electric shock.
– In overvoltage category IV (CAT IV - 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).
– Clean and dry the device before use.
– The device must be disconnected from all power sources and
measuring circuits before opening the cover to change the
battery(ies) or fuse(s).
– 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).
