Before opening the instrument, you must disconnect it from line power and

personnel who are qualified and have familiarized themselves with the
directions in this manual.
This instrument should be checked at least once a year. For checking and
calibration, contact one of our accredited metrology laboratories (information
and contact details available on request), at our Chauvin Arnoux subsidiary or
the branch in your country.
