INTERNATIONAL ELECTRICAL SYMBOLS :
Caution ! Refer to the explanation in this Manual.
Caution ! Risk of electric shock.
Earth (Ground)
Double Insulation or Reinforced insulation
Fuse
AC--Alternating Current
DC--Direct Current
2) CENELEC DIRECTIVES
The instruments conform to CENELEC Low-voltage directive
2006/95/EC and Electromagnetic compatibility directive 2004/
108/EC
Measurement Category II (CAT II) is for measurements performed
on circuits directly connected to the low voltage installation.
Examples are measurements on household appliances, portable
tools and similar equipment.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this
product to rain or moisture. To avoid electrical shock hazard,
observe the proper safety precautions when working with
voltages above 60 VDC or 30 VAC rms. These voltage levels
pose a potential shock hazard to the user. Do not touch test lead
tips or the circuit being tested while power is applied to the circuit
being measured. Keep your fingers behind the finger guards of the
test leads during measurement. Inspect test leads, connectors, &
probes for damaged insulation or exposed metal before using the
instrument. If any defects are found, replace them immediately. Do
not measure any current that exceeds the current rating of the
protection fuse. Do not attempt a current measurement to any
circuit where the open circuit voltage is above the protection fuse
voltage rating. Suspected open circuit voltage should be checked
with voltage functions.
WARNING
Never attempt a voltage measurement with the test lead inserted
into the A/mA or A input jack. Only replace the blown fuse with the
m
proper rating as specified in this manual. Only use the test lead
provided with the equipment or UL Listed Probe Assembly rated
CAT III 1000V or better.
CAUTION
Disconnect the test leads from the test points before changing
functions. Always set the instrument to the highest range and work
downward for an unknown value when using manual ranging mode.
