Service

WARNING!

Repair and service of this instrument is to be performed by qualified
personnel only. Improper repair or service could result in physical
degradation of the meter. This could alter the protection from electrical
shock and personal injury this meter provides to the operator. Perform
only those maintenance tasks that you are qualified to do.

These guidelines will help you attain long and reliable service from 
your instrument:

1. Keep your meter dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.

2.  Whenever pra c t i cal, keep the instrument away from dust and   

dirt, which can cause premature wear and collect on 
internal components.

3.  Although your instrument is built to withstand the rigors of daily use,  

it can be damaged by severe impacts. Use reasonable caution when
using and storing the instrument.

Cleaning and Decontamination

Periodically clean your meter’s case using a damp cloth. 

DO NOT

use

abrasives, cleaning solvents or strong detergents, as they may damage
the finish or affect the reliability of the structural components.

Probe tips can be cleaned with an abrasive, adequate to remove 
build-up, to ensure good electrical contact.

DANGER!

DO NOT

submerge this instrument in liquid! Liquids may enter this

instrument during cleaning and leak out in subsequent use, exposing
the user to dangerous voltage during measurement.

Repair

This unit contains no user serviceable parts. In the event your 
instrument is physically damaged or does not function properly, 
please return the instrument to UEi following the warranty and 
service instructions.
