PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
This instrument is compliant with safety standard IEC 61010-2-030 and the leads are compliant with IEC 61010-031, for voltages
up to 600 V in category IV or 1,000 V in category III.
Failure to observe the safety instructions may result in electric shock, fire, explosion, and destruction of the instrument and of
the installations.
„
The operator and/or the responsible authority must carefully read and clearly understand the various precautions to be taken in
use. Sound knowledge and a keen awareness of electrical hazards are essential when using this instrument.

„
The safety of any system in which this instrument might be incorporated is the responsibility of the integrator of the system.
„
This instrument can be used on category IV installations, for voltages not exceeding 600 V
rms
with respect to earth or 700 V
rms
max between terminals.
„ Do not use the instrument on networks of which the voltage or category exceeds those mentioned.
„
Observe the environmental conditions of use.
„
Except for voltage measurements, make no measurements on live devices.
„
Do not use the instrument if it seems to be damaged, incomplete, or poorly closed.
„
Before each use, check the condition of the insulation on the leads, housing, and accessories. Any item of which the insulation

Use only the leads and accessories supplied. The use of leads (or accessories) of a lower voltage rating or category limits the
use of the combined inst leads (or accessories) to the lowest category and service voltage.
„
When handling the leads, test probes, and crocodile clips, keep your fingers behind the physical guard.
„
Before removing of the battery compartment cover, make sure that the measurement leads (and accessories) are disconnected.
