3.1. Precautions for use
• The operator and/or the responsible authority must
carefully read and clearly understand the various
precautions to be taken in use.
• If you use this instrument other than as specified,
the protection it provides may be compromised,
thereby endangering you.
• Do not use the instrument if it seems to be dam-
aged, incomplete, or poorly closed.
• Before each use, check the condition of the insula-
tion on the leads, housing, and accessories. Any
item of which the insulation is deteriorated (even
partially) must be set aside for repair or scrapping.
• The safety of any system in which this device is
incorporated is the responsibility of the system
integrator.
• Before using your device, check that it is perfectly
dry. If it is wet, it must be thoroughly dried before
being connected or being operated in any way.
• Use only the leads and accessories supplied. Using
leads (or accessories) of a lower voltage or cat-
egory reduces the voltage or category of the
combined inst leads (or accessories) to
that of the leads (or accessories).
• Use personal protection equipment systematically.
• When handling the leads, test probes, and croco-
dile clips, keep your fingers behind the physical
guard.
• Comply with the environmental conditions of use.
• Do not use the clamp above its rated frequency,
since this might cause it to overheat dangerously.
3.2. First use
Place the batteries in the device as follows:
1. Use a screwdriver; unscrew all the battery
cover screws on the back of the meter.
2. Place the batteries in the casing, respect
polarity.
3. Screw back battery cover screws
Before changing the batteries, set the switch to „OFF“, disconnect the measuring leads and remove the
clamp from the circuit measured.
• Start the clamp-on multimeter; make sure that all segments are displayed.
• Check that on Continuity position, and without any input the meter display OL.
• Take out both cords and short circuit, the beeper should sound.
• Turn the rotary switch on V and check a known voltage (for example a battery) and make sure voltage is
correct.
When all the steps above are correct, you can start to use the meter.
