Fuse Replacement (VC265 only)
The current measuring ranges are protected by high-performance fuses. If measuring in this range is no
longer possible, you have to change the fuse.
Proceed as follows for fuse replacement:
-
Separate the connected measuring lines from the measuring circuit and the measuring device. Switch
the DMM off.
-
Open the housing as described in chapter “Opening the Measuring Device”.
-
Replace the defective fuse with a new fuse of the same type and nominal voltage. The fuses have the
following values:
Fuse
F1
F2
Value
FF 400 mA 600 V
F10A 600 V
Dimensions
6.35 x 31.8 mm
6.35 x 31.8 mm

Now close the housing again carefully.
Using mended fuses or bridging the fuse holder is not permitted for safety reasons.
It may cause fires or arc explosions. Never operate the meter when it is open.

Proceed as follows to insert/replace the DMM batteries:
-
Separate the connected measuring lines from the measuring circuit and the measuring device. Switch
the DMM off.
-
Open the housing as described in chapter “Opening the Measuring Device”.
-
Replace the flat batteries with new one of the same type. Place a new battery into the battery com-
partment (15), observing the correct polarity. Observe the correct polarity indicated in the battery
compartment.
-
Now close the housing carefully again.
