only those maintenance tasks that you are qualified to do.
These guidelines will help you attain long and reliable service from
your instrument:
1. Keep your meter dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
2. Whenever pra c t i cal, keep the instrument away from dust and
dirt, which can cause premature wear and collect on
internal components.
3. Although your instrument is built to withstand the rigors of daily use,
it can be damaged by severe impacts. Use reasonable caution when
using and storing the instrument.
Cleaning and Decontamination
Periodically clean your meter’s case using a damp cloth.
DO NOT
use
abrasives, cleaning solvents or strong detergents, as they may damage
the finish or affect the reliability of the structural components.
Probe tips can be cleaned with an abrasive, adequate to remove
build-up, to ensure good electrical contact.
DANGER!
DO NOT
submerge this instrument in liquid! Liquids may enter this
instrument during cleaning and leak out in subsequent use, exposing
the user to dangerous voltage during measurement.
Repair
This unit contains no user serviceable parts. In the event your
instrument is physically damaged or does not function properly,
please return the instrument to UEi following the warranty and
service instructions.

This instrument is not intended for precise measurement
L ED indicators will light when voltage approaches an

* 2 40 / 2 08 volt cross sensitivity: The 240 volt LED begins to
illuminate at about 210 volts - Although some 208 volt
s o u rces may illuminate the 240 volt LED, it typically does
not fully illuminate until it reaches approximately 215 volts.
