Replacing the fuse
Always adhere to the safety instructions when replacing fuses!
Make sure that only fuses of the type stated and of the rated current specified are
used as a replacement. Using unsuitable or repaired fuses or bypassing the fuse
holder is inadmissible and can cause fire.
The measurement input “V/mA” (7) is protected against overcharge. The measurement input “10A” is not
protected. If measurements can no longer be made via the “V/mA” socket (7), the internal fuse must be
replaced.
Proceed as follows to change the fuse:
-
Remove all measuring lines and turn off the multi-
meter.
-
Remove the rubber holster from the housing.
-
Loosen the housing screw on the back and care-
fully slide off the battery compartment lid (11).
-
Push the plastic peg between the two battery
compartments forward until the case is unlocked.
Carefully remove the case.
-
Replace the ceramic microfuse with a new fuse of the same type and amperage. F 0.5 A / 500V
quick-acting 6.3 x 32 mm
-
Close the device in reverse order and carefully screw the battery compartment lid back on.
