SAFETY INFORMATION
• Reference. Please use utmost attention.
• Do not exceed the maximum allowable input range of any function
• Insulated personnel body protective equipment up to 1000V.
• Unauthorised persons are not to be allowed to disassemble the Voltage Tester.
In order to avoid electrical shock, the valid safety and VDE regulations regarding excessive
contact voltages must receive utmost attention, when working with voltages exceeding
120V (60V) DC or 50V (25V) rms AC. The values in brackets are valid for limited ranges (as
for example medicine and agriculture).
Prior to measurement ensure that the test leads and the Voltage Tester are in perfect condition.
When using this instrument keep fingers behind the finger guards on the probes
and do not touch the probe tips.
This instrument may only be used within the ranges specified and within low voltage
systems up to 1000V.
Prior to usage, ensure that the Voltage Tester is fully working (e.g. on known voltage source).
The Voltage Tester is not to be used, if the battery compartment is open.
The Voltage Tester must be kept dry and clean.
The Voltage Tester may no longer be used if one or several functions fail or if no
functionality is indicated.
Do not use in damp conditions.
A Perfect display is only guaranteed within a temperature range of -10°C up to +55°C,
at relative humidity of <85%.
If the operator’s safety cannot be guaranteed, the instrument must be removed from service
and protected against use.
