Safety Instructions:
It is important to read carefully the instruction manual prior to using the field meter. Important infor-
mation regarding safety, use and maintenance is provided herein.
The adapter is only to be used with the specified, rechargeable battery. Never try to recharge non-
chargeable primary batteries (e.g. zinc-coal or alkaline batteries) with it: Explosion Hazard!
The grounding of the field meter required for the electric field measurements should be performed
with the supplied grounding lead, which can be connected to bare water, gas or heating pipes. If
there is none of the above-mentioned grounding options available, a licensed electrician could
temporarily also make use of the grounding conductor in a grounded outlet. In this case, howe-
ver, an electric shock hazard may occur when the grounding clip touches the current-carrying
phase conductor.
To prevent shock hazards or the destruction of the field meter, neither the instrument itself nor the
adapter should ever come into contact with water. The penetration of water into the case may lead
to the destruction of the electronics inside. Field meters are not to be stored outdoors or used
during rain. Clean the case only from the outside, using a slightly moist cloth. Do not use cleaners
or sprays.
Prior to cleaning the field meter or opening the case, shut it off and unplug all extension cords.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the instrument.
Due to the high sensitivity level, the electronics of the field meter are very sensitive to heat, impact
as well as touch. Therefore do not leave the instrument in the hot sun, on a heating element or the
like. Do not let it drop nor try to manipulate its electronics inside when the case is open.
This field meter should only be used for the purposes described herein and only in combination
with supplied or recommended accessories.
