SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
■ Never use on networks at a voltage above 1000 V in relation to the
earth. This multimeter of overvoltage category III, satisfies the
severe requirements of reliability and availability corresponding to
industrial and domestic permanent installations (c.f. IEC 664-1).
■ Use indoors in environments of degree of pollution at most equal
to 2 (c.f. IEC 664-1), of temperature from 0 to +55°C and of relative
humidity from 20 to 90 %.
■ Respect the value and the type of fuses or there is a risk of damage
to the instrument and cancellation of the warranty.
- Fuse 1 A HBC (6.3 x 32 mm - 500 V - 10 kA)
- Fuse 10 A HBC (6.3 x 32 mm - 500 V - 10 kA)
■ Use accessories in conformity with safety standards (NF EN 61010-
2-031) of minimum voltage 1000 V and overvoltage category III.
■ Before any measurement, check the leads and the switch are in
the correct position. When the order of magnitude of a measurement
is not known, place the selector switch on the highest range then
lower progressively, if necessary, to the appropriate range.
■ Never measure resistances on a live circuit.
■ For current measurements (without current clamp), switch off the
power supply of the circuit before connecting or disconnecting
your multimeter.
■ To open the battery compartment, the leads must be disconnected.
■ Never connect to the circuit to be measured if the battery
compartment is not correctly closed.
