1. Safety Information
The Auto Range Digital Multimeter (hereinafter referred
to as“ the meter ”) complies with the safety requirements
for electronic measuring instruments in IEC-61010-1,
falls into pollution degree 2 and meets the over-voltage
standard of CAT
ΙΙΙ
600V.
Follow all safety and operation instructions to ensure safe
use of the meter.
With proper use and care, the meter will give you years of
satisfactory service.
1.1 Preliminary
1.1.1 To operate the meter, the user must observe the
following normal safety rules:
1) General protection against electric shock; and
2) Protection of the meter against misuse
1.1.2 When the meter is received, please check whether
it has been damaged during transport.
1.1.3 After being stored and delivered under harsh
conditions, the meter should be checked and
confirmed for damage.
1.2 Dos And Don’ts
1.2.1 Use the right input jack, function and range.
1.2.2 Do not take measurements beyond the protection
limits indicated in the specifications.
1.2.3 Do not touch the metal tips of the test probes when
connecting the meter to the circuit to be measured.
1.2.4 Keep your fingers behind the probe barriers when
taking a measurement with an effective voltage of
above 60V DC or 30V AC.
1.2.5 Do not take any voltage measurement if the value
between the measuring terminal and the ground
exceeds 1000V.
1.2.6 Select the highest range if the value to be
measured in the manual range is unknown.
1.2.7 Do not connect the meter to any voltage source
while the meter is in the current, resistance, diode
or continuity test range.
1.2.8 Disconnect the test probes from the circuit under
test before turning the range selector to change
functions.
1.2.9 Be careful that high voltage pulses at the test point
may damage the meter when measurements are
being taken on the switching power circuit of a
TV set.
1.2.10 Do not measure the resistance, diode or
continuity of live circuits.
BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN USING THE METER.
Improper use of this device can result in electric
shock or destruction of the meter. Take all normal
safety precautions and follow the safeguards
suggested in this manual.
To exploit full functionality of the meter and ensure
safe operation, Protection provided by the instrument
will be impaired if used in a manner not specified by
the manufacturer.
WARNING
1.1.4 The test probes must be kept in good condition.
Check whether the insulation of the test probes
has been damaged and whether any wire has
been exposed.
1.1.5 Using the test probes supplied can ensure safety.
If required, they must be replaced with those of
the same model or class
