General Handling Precautions
Take care not to damage the instrument by dropping it.
Unplug During Periods of Extended Non-Use
Unplug the power cord from the outlet. Remove the dry cells. Failure to
remove the battery pack during long periods of non-use can cause the
battery fluid to leak into the instrument, causing damage.
Do not place any other instrument or anything containing liquid on top of the
instrument. Doing so can lead to malfunction.
Since the LCD screen is very vulnerable and can be easily scratched, do not
allow any sharp objects near it. Also never expose it to vibrations and shocks.
Do Not Install the Instrument in Any of the Following Places
・
Humid or dusty areas
・
On an unstable surface
・
In direct sunlight or in locations such as automobiles where the
temperature can become high
・
In a location where it may become vibrated or shocked
・
Near sources of heat such as heating appliances
The IEC61010-1 pollution degree and overvoltage category of the instrument are
as follows.
・
Pollution degree 2
Pollution degree
refers to the degree of adherence by a solid, liquid, or
vapor that reduces the withstand voltage or surface resistance factor. It
is a number that expresses the degree to which an instrument or one
of its components may become poluted while being used.
Pollution degree 2 applies to normal indoor atmospheres. It
applies only to normal or non-conductive pollution, but
conductivity may occur temporarily depending on
concentrations.
・
Overvoltage category II
Overvoltage category (installation category) is a number that defines
excessive voltage, and includes regulations for impulse withstand
voltage.
Overvoltage category II applies to electrical equipment that is powered
by a fixed installation such as a distribution board.
