manual before starting using the instrument.

Save and keep the manual handy to enable quick reference 

whenever necessary.

The instrument is to be used only in its intended applications.

  Understand and follow all the safety instructions contained in 

the manual.

 

Failure to follow the instructions may cause injury, instrument 

damage and/or damage to equipment under test. Kyoritsu 

is by no means liable for any damage resulting from the 

instrument in contradiction to this cautionary note.

The symbol

 

#

 

Indicated on the instrument means that the user 

must refer to related parts in the manual for safe operation of the 

instrument. Be sure to carefully read instructions following each

 

#

 

Symbol in this manual.

#

DANGER  

   is reserved for conditions and actions that are 

likely to cause serious or fatal injury.

#

WARNING

   is reserved for conditions and actions that can 

cause serious or fatal injury.

#

CAUTION

    is reserved for conditions and actions that can 

cause injury or property damage.

Following symbols are used on the instrument and in the 

instruction manual. Attention should be paid to each symbol to 

ensure your safety.

    Refer to this instructions in the manual.

 

#

    

This symbol is marked where the user must refer to the instruction 

manual so as not to cause personal injury or instrument 

damage.

 

 

Indicates an instrument with double or reinforced insulation.

     This instrument satisfies the marking requirement defined in the 

WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC). This symbol indicates separate 

collection for electrical and electronic equipment.

DANGER

Never make measurement on a circuit in which earth 

potential of 600V or higher exist.

Do not attempt to make measurement in the presence of 

flammable gasses, fumes, vapor or dust. Otherwise, the use 

of the instrument may cause sparking, which can lead to an 

explosion.

Never attempt to use the instrument if its surface or your 

hand is wet.

The instrument should be used only in its intended 

applications or conditions. Otherwise, safety functions 

equipped with the instrument do not work, and instrument 

damage or serious personal injury may be caused.

Verify proper operation on a known source before use or 

taking action as a result indication of the instrument.

Keep your fingers and hands behind the protective 

fingerguard during measurement.

WARNINGS

 

Never attempt to make any measurement, if the instrument 

has any structural abnormality such as cracked case and 

exposed metal part.

Stop using the test lead if the outer jacket is damaged and 

the inner metal or color jacket is exposed.

Do not install substitute parts or make any modification to 

the instrument. Return the instrument to Kyoritsu or your 

distributor for repair or re-calibration.

Do not measure for more than five minutes when measuring 

on 500V AC or more, although the instrument is designed for 

the use 110V through 600V AC.The maximum time indicated 

above is measured from the time when more than 2 test 

leads of the unit are connected to the power supply cords.

Exceeding the limited continuous testing duration or leaving 

the instrument connected to the circuit under test may heat 

the internal circuit and cause burn injuries or fire..

 If the all open phase lamps are not lit on, any phase may still 

be live-be carefull.

CAUTIONS

Do not expose the instrument to the direct sun, extreme 

temperatures or dew fall.

Use a damp cloth and detergent for cleaning the instrument. 

Do not use abrasives or solvents.

This instrument isn't dust & water proofed. Keep away from 

dust and water.

Measurement categories (Over-voltage categories)

To ensure safe operation of measuring instruments, IEC61010 

establishes safety standards for various electrical environments, 

categorized as 0 to CAT

 

, and called measurement 

categories. Higher-numbered categories correspond to electrical 

environments with greater energy, So a measuring instrument 

designed for CAT

 

 environments gives greater protection than 

one designed for CAT

 

.

   

O(None, Other)

:   Circuits which are not directly connected to 

the mains power supply.

   

CAT 

: Fault category level at a mains socket

   

CAT 

: Fault category at distribution board level

   

CAT 

:    The circuit from the service drop to the power meter and 

primary over-current protection device (distribution panel).
