General Maintenance
This section provides basic information on maintaining
the meter, such as replacing fuses and the battery. Only
experienced and authorized personnel should make
repairs to the meter.
Warning
To avoid injury or damage to the meter,do not allow
moisture inside the case and remove test leads
before opening battery cover.
• Use a damp cloth to regularly clean the outside of the
meter. Do not use abrasives or chemical solvents.Dirty
or damp input jack can adversely affect readings.
• To clean input jacks, follow the following steps:
1.Turn off the instrument and remove the test leads.
2.Clear any dirt or other particles on the input jacks.
3.Use a cotton ball/swab with a lubricant (i.e. WD-40) to
clean off the contacts of the input jacks.
4.Use a separate cotton ball/swab for each jack to
prevent cross-contamination.
Note:
• Even if the indicator doesn’t go off, voltage may still
exist.Do not use NCV detection as the sole
determination of a lack of voltage present in a
conductor.Detection could be impaired by socket
design, insulation, etc.
• When measuring voltage through input jacks, NCV
indicator may light up due to induced voltage.
• External environmental interference could cause false
NCV indications.

Replacing the Probe
1. Under normal conditions, it is unnecessary to replace the fuse.
Don't replace it until the probes are unplugged and the power is
shut down. Take out the two screws of the rear cover to remove
the housing.
2. The specification of the fuse is:
F1 F 10A H 600V, F2 F 400mA H 600V
The replacement should be of the same specification.
3. The battery for this multimeter is 9V NEDA 1604 or 6F22.
The replacement should be of the same specification.
4. Don't put the instrument into use until the rear cover is screwed
after replacing battery or fuse.
To avoid electric shock, make sure the probes are disconnected
from the measured circuit before removing the rear cover.
Make sure the rear cover is tightly screwed before using the
instrument.
Warning
If insulation on probe is damaged, replace it.
Use meet EN 61010-031 standard, rated CAT III 600V, 10A or better probe.
