Safety Warnings
• Power Consumers with High Inrush Current (> 16 A) – Function Test
(e.g. fluorescent tubes, halogen lamps, headlights etc.):
Observe the following instructions in order to prevent
excessive contact loads.
Attention!
!
Starting the Function Test
For reasons of safety, the device under test must be
switched off before the function test is started. This
precaution prevents inadvertent start-up of a device under
test which may represent a hazard during operation, e.g. a
circular saw or a disc grinder.
Ending the Function Test
After completion of the function test, devices under test
must be turned off with their own switch – especially
devices with relatively high inductivity.
The measuring instrument may not be used:
• If it demonstrates visible damage
• With damaged connector cables, measuring cables or
patient ports
• If it no longer functions properly
In such cases, the instrument must be removed from operation
and secured against unintentional use.
