1. Safety Precautions
This product complies with the requirements of the following European Community Directives:
2014/30/EU (Electromagnetic Compatibility) and 2014/35/EU (Low Voltage) as amended by
2014/32/EU (CE-Marking).
Overvoltage category III 1000V; pollution degree 2.
CAT I: For signal level, telecommunication, electronic with small transient over voltage
CAT II: For local level, appliances, main wall outlets, portable equipment
CAT III: Supplied from a cable under earth; fixed installed switches, automatic cut-off or main plugs
CAT IV: Units and installations, which are supplied overhead lines, which are stand in a risk of
persuade of a lightning, i.e. main-switches on current input, overvoltage-diverter, current
use counter.
To ensure safe operation of the equipment and eliminate the danger of serious injury due to short-
circuits (arcing), the following safety precautions must be observed.
Damages resulting from failure to observe these safety precautions are exempt from any legal claims
whatever.
* Never touch the probe tip while operating insulation test
Do not use this instrument for high-energy industrial installation measurement. This instrument is
intended for use in installation over voltage category III.
* Do not place the equipment on damp or wet surfaces.
* Do not exceed the maximum permissible input ratings (danger of serious injury and/or destruction
of the equipment).
* The meter is designed to withstand the stated max voltages. If it is not possible to exclude without
that impulses, transients, disturbance or for other reasons, these voltages are exceeded a suitable
presale (10:1) must be used.
* Disconnect test leads or probe from the measuring circuit before switching modes or functions.
* To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test and discharge all capacitors before
taking any resistance measurements.
* Check test leads and probes for faulty insulation or bare wires before connection to the equipment.
* Please use only 4mm-safety test leads to ensure immaculate function.
* To avoid electric shock, do not operate this product in wet or damp conditions. Conduct measuring
works only in dry clothing and rubber shoes, i. e. on isolating mats.
* Never touch the tips of the test leads or probe.
* Comply with the warning labels and other info on the equipment.
* The measurement instrument is not to be to operated unattended.
* Always start with the highest measuring range when measuring unknown values.
* Do not subject the equipment to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, humidity or dampness.
* Do not subject the equipment to shocks or strong vibrations.
* 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 or current measurement, otherwise the meter
could be damaged.
* Use caution when working with voltages above 35V DC or 25V AC. These Voltages pose shock
hazard.
