User Notes

These operating instructions are intended for the use of adequately trained
personnel.

The PrimeTest 200 has been designed to make measurements in a dry
environment. It must not be used for making measurements in electric
circuits with nominal voltage greater than 300 V AC/DC.

The following symbols are used in these operating instructions and on the
PrimeTest 200.

Warning of electrical danger!
Indicates instructions must be followed to avoid danger to persons.

Important, follow the documentation! This symbol indicates that the
operating instructions must be adhered to in order to avoid danger. 

This symbol on the PrimeTest 200 indicates that the unit can safety test
Class II equipment. The PrimeTest 200 is not double insulated.

(DC) direct current or (AC) alternating current.

This symbol on the PrimeTest 200 indicates that the unit can safety test
Class I equipment.

This symbol on the PrimeTest 200 indicates the built in fuses.
