2.1 General rules
In order to provide conditions for correct operation and the cor-
rectness of the obtained results, the following recommendations
must be observed:
before using the meter read carefully this manual,
the meter should be operated only by qualified persons that have
passed health and safety training,
be very careful when measuring voltages exceeding (as per IEC
61010-1:2010/AMD1:2016):
Normal locations
60 V DC
30 V AC RMS
42.4 V AC of peak value
as they generate a potential risk of electric shock,
do not exceed the maximum limits of the input signal,
during the voltage measurements do not switch the device in the
current or resistance measuring mode and vice versa,
when changing ranges, always disconnect the test leads from the
tested circuit,
hold the measuring probes by the spot provided, restricted by a spe-
cial barrier to avoid accidental contact with exposed metal parts,
If during the measurement symbol OL appears on the screen, it indi-
cates that the measured value exceeds the measurement range,
It is unacceptable to operate:
a damaged meter which is completely or partially out of order,
a device with damaged insulation of test leads,
a meter stored for an excessive period of time in disadvan-
tageous conditions (e.g. excessive humidity).
repairs may be carried out only by an authorised service point.
