Do not attempt to repair or service your Meter unless you are 
qualified to do so and have the relevant calibration, 
performance test, and service information. 

 

5.1 General Maintenance   

To avoid electrical shock or damage to the meter, 
do not get water inside the case. Remove the test 
leads and any input signals before opening the 
case 

 

Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild 
detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents. 
Dirt or moisture in the terminals can affect readings. 
To clean the terminals: 

¥

 Turn the meter off and remove all test leads. 

¥

 Shake out any dirt that may be in the terminals.

 

¥

 Soak a new swab with a cleaning and oiling agent (such as 

WD-40). 

¥

 Work the swab around in each terminal. The oiling agent 

insulates the terminals from moisture-related contamination.   

 
5.2 Battery replacement 

To avoid false readings, which could lead to 

possible electric shock or personal injury, replace 

the battery as soon as the battery indicator (

 

appears.  
Before replacing the battery, disconnect test leads 
and/or any connectors from any circuit under test, 
turn the meter off and remove test leads from the 
input terminals. 

 
To replace the battery (see Figure 2.): 

¥

 Turn the meter off. 

¥

 Disconnect test leads and/or any connectors from the 

terminals. 

22 

¥

 

Use a screwdriver to unscrew the two screws secured on 

the battery cover.

   

¥

 Take out the battery cover from the meter. 

¥

 Remove the used batteries. 

¥

 Replace with the new 9V batteries (6F22). 

¥

 Rejoin the battery cover 

and secure by the two screws

CAUTION 

Using this appliance in an environment with a strong 
radiated radio-frequency electromagnetic field (approx. 
3V/m), may influence its measuring accuracy. The 
measuring result can be strongly deviating from the 
actual value.
