on page 17.

Before each measurement, measuring cables must be inspected for dam-
age and replaced if necessary. Damaged or worn components can damage
the instrument or cause injury.

The instrument may be operated only under the operating conditions and in the
positions specified by the manufacturer, without the product's ventilation being
obstructed. If the manufacturer’s specifications are not observed, this can result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury, and in some cases, death.

Applicable local or national safety regulations and rules for the prevention of acci-
dents must be observed in all work performed.

The instrument is designed for use in the following sectors: Industrial, residential,
business and commercial areas and small businesses.

The instrument is designed for indoor use only. Before each measurement, you
need to verify at a known source if the instrument functions properly.

To disconnect from the mains, unplug the IEC socket on the back panel.

See 

Table 5-1

 for the general data on the instrument specification. For more infor-

mation, see the instrument datasheet (P/N: 5216.1057.32).
