=

Use just one 6F22 battery, proprerly installed in the Meter's battery case

,   to the Meter

=

Replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator (     ) appears. With

   a low battery, the Meter might produce false. 

   readings that can lead to electric shock and personal injury.

=

Do not measure voltages above 1000V in category III, or 600V in category

    IV installations.

=

Do not operate the Meter with the case (or part of the case) removed.

1.3) Instructions :-

=

 Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the Meter case or

     battery cover

=

 When servicing the Meter, use only specified replacement parts.

=

 Before opening up the instrument, always disconnect from all sources

     of electric current and make sure you are not charged with static

     electricity, which may destroy internal components.

=

 Any adjustment, maintenance or repair work carried out on the meter

    while it is live should be carried out only by appropriately qualified 

- 05 -

=

 personnel, after having taken into account the instructions in this 

     present manual.

=

 A "qualified person" is someone who is familiar with the installation,

    construction and operation of the equipment and the hazards involved.

    He is trained and authorized to energize and de-energize circuits and

    equipment in accordance with established practices.

=

 When the instrument is opened up, remember that some internal

     capacitors can retain a dangerous potential even after the instrument

     is switched off.

=

 If any faults or abnormalities are observed, take the instrument out of 

    service and ensure that it cannot be used until it has been checked

    out.

=

 If the meter is not going to be used for a long time, take out the battery

    and do not store the meter in high temperature or high humidity

    environment.
