2. Safety Measures
The testers have been constructed and tested in
accordance with the safety regulations for voltage
testers and have left the factory in a safe and perfect
condition.
The operating instructions contain information and
References required for safe operation and use of
the tester. Before using the tester, read the operating instructions carefully and follow them in all respects.
3. Danger of electric shock and other
dangers
Only to be used by a competent person.
Prove on a known live before and after testing.
To avoid an electric shock, observe the precautions
when working with voltages exceeding 120 V (60 V)
DC or 50 V (25 V) eff AC. In accordance with DIN
VDE these values represent the threshold contact
voltages (values in brackets refer to limited ranges,
e.g. in agricultural areas).
The tester must not be used with the battery
compartment open
Before using the tester, ensure that the test lead and
device are in perfect working order. Look out e.g. for
broken cables or leaking batteries.
Hold the tester and accessories by the designated grip
areas only, the display elements must not be covered.
Never touch the test probes.
The tester may be used only within the specied
measurement ranges and in low-voltage installations
up to 690 V.
The tester may be used only in the measuring circuit
category it has been designed for.
Before and after use, always check that the tester is in
perfect working order (e.g. on a known voltage source).
The tester must no longer be used if one or more
functions fail or if no functionality is indicated.
It is not permitted to use the tester during rain or
precipitation.

Danger of electric shock & other dangers
A perfect display is guaranteed only within a tem-
perature range of -15°C to +55°C at an relative air
humidity less than 85%.
If the safety of the user cannot be guaranteed, the
tester must be switched off and secured against
unintentional use.
Safety is no longer guaranteed e.g. in the following
cases:
• obvious damage
• broken housing, cracks in housing
• if the tester can no longer perform the required
measurements/tests
• stored for too long in unfavorable conditions
• damaged during transport
• leaking batteries
The tester complies with all EMC regulations. Ne-
vertheless it can happen in rare cases that electric
devices are disturbed by the electrical eld of the
tester or the tester is disturbed by electrical devices.
Never use the tester in explosive environment
Tester must be operated by trained users only
Operational safety is no longer guaranteed if the tester
is modied or altered.
The tester may be opened by an authorized service
technician only.
4. Intended Use
The tester may be used only under the conditions and for the
purposes for which it was designed. Therefore, observe in
particular the safety instructions, the technical data including
environmental conditions.

Preparation for tests
6. Preparation for tests
6.1 Auto-power-on/ switching on
• The tester switches on when it detects continuity, an AC
or DC voltage above apporx. 10V a live phase on L2
(single pole test).
• It can be switched on with the torch light button.
6.2 Auto-power off
• Tester is automatically powered off after 5 sec when
there is no signal contacted to the probes.
• The torch light switches off after approx. 10 sec.
7. Conducting Tests
7.1 Voltage test
• Connect both probes to the object under test.
• The voltage is indicated by LEDs and LCD (3031 only)
• Buzzer sounds when a threshold voltage of approx.
38VAC or approx. 100 VDC is exceeded.
• Voltage polarity is indicated in following manner.
→ AC: + and – 12V LED are on
→ +DC: +12V LED is on
→ -DC: -12V LED is on
When the L2 probe + is the positive (negative) po-
tential, the Polarity indication LED indicates “+DC”
(“-DC”).
During voltage test, L or R LED may light up.
In case of empty batteries, the ELV LED lights up
>50VAC, >120VDC
7.2 Single-pole phase test
Function of this test may not be fully achieved if the
insulation condition/ grounding conditions of user
or of the equipment under test aren’t good enough.
Verication of live-circuit shouldn’t be dependent on
this Single-pole phase test only, but on the voltage
test.
• Hold the tester good in your hand. Connect the “L2+”
probe to the object under test. Live circuit LED lights up
and buzzer sounds when a voltage of approx. 100V AC
or more exists in the object under test. (Pol≥100VAC).
7.3 Phase rotation test
• L LED and R LED for Phase rotation test may operate on
various wiring systems, but effective testing result can be
obtained only on three-phase 4-wire system.
• Hold the tester good in your hand and connect both pro-
bes to the object under test.
• Phase-to-phase voltage is indicated by Voltage LEDs.
• R LED lights up for Right rotary eld.

Battery Replacement
• L LED lights up for Left rotary eld.
• Measurement principle: The instrument detects the phase rising order regarding the user as earth.
Function of this test may not be fully achieved if the
insulation condition/ grounding conditions of user or of
the equipment under test is not good enough.
7.4 Continuity test
Make sure the object under test isn’t live.
• Connect both test probes to the object under test. Con-
tinuity LED lights up and buzzer sounds continuously to
indicate continuity
7.5 Torch light
• Pressing the torch light button to turn on the light and
after approx. 10s it will turn itself off
8. Battery Replacement
Remove the probes from any testing point, when
opening the Battery case. Batteries are dead when
the continuity test with both test probes connected
cannot be done anymore. A battery symbol in the
LCD indicates low battery.
Follow the procedure below and replace batteries with
new ones (type IEC LR03 1.5V).
• Unscrew the battery door, e.g. with a coin.
• Pull out the Battery door and replace the batteries. Insert
new batteries according to the engraving on the Battery
door.
• Re-assemble battery door.
• Conrm that the Battery door case is properly locked
prior to measurements.
