LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Each Fluke product is warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service. The warranty period is two years and begins on the date of shipment. Parts, product repairs, and services are warranted for 90 days. This warranty extends only to the original buyer or end-user customer of a Fluke authorized reseller, and does not apply to fuses, disposable batteries, or to any product which, in Fluke's opinion, has been misused, altered, neglected, contaminated, or damaged by accident or abnormal conditions of operation or handling. Fluke warrants that software will operate substantially in accordance with its functional specifications for 90 days and that it has been properly recorded on non-defective media. Fluke does not warrant that software will be error free or operate without interruption.
Fluke authorized resellers shall extend this warranty on new and unused products to end-user customers only but have no authority to extend a greater or different warranty on behalf of Fluke. Warranty support is available only if product is purchased through a Fluke authorized sales outlet or Buyer has paid the applicable international price. Fluke reserves the right to invoice Buyer for importation costs of repair/replacement parts when product purchased in one country is submitted for repair in another country.
Fluke's warranty obligation is limited, at Fluke's option, to refund of the purchase price, free of charge repair, or replacement of a defective product which is returned to a Fluke authorized service center within the warranty period.
To obtain warranty service, contact your nearest Fluke authorized service center to obtain return authorization information, then send the product to that service center, with a description of the difficulty, postage and insurance prepaid (FOB Destination). Fluke assumes no risk for damage in transit. Following warranty repair, the product will be returned to Buyer, transportation prepaid (FOB Destination). If Fluke determines that failure was caused by neglect, misuse, contamination, alteration, accident, or abnormal condition of operation or handling, including overvoltage failures caused by use outside the product’s specified rating, or normal wear and tear of mechanical components, Fluke will provide an estimate of repair costs and obtain authorization before commencing the work. Following repair, the product will be returned to the Buyer transportation prepaid and the Buyer will be billed for the repair and return transportation charges (FOB Shipping Point).
THIS WARRANTY IS BUYER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. FLUKE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, ARISING FROM ANY CAUSE OR THEORY.
Since some countries or states do not allow limitation of the term of an implied warranty, or exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, the limitations and exclusions of this warranty may not apply to every buyer. If any provision of this Warranty is held invalid or unenforceable by a court or other decision-maker of competent jurisdiction, such holding will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision..

Safety Information

A Warning identifies hazardous conditions and procedures that are dangerous to the user. A Caution identifies conditions and procedures that can cause damage to the Product or the equipment under test.
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury:
WX Warning
Read all safety information before you use the Product.
Use the Product only as specified, or the protection supplied by the Product can
be compromised.
Comply with local and national safety codes. Use personal protective
equipment (approved rubber gloves, face protection, and flame-resistant clothes) to prevent shock and arc blast injury where hazardous live conductors are exposed.
Examine the case before you use the Product. Look for cracks or missing
plastic. Carefully look at the insulation around the terminals.
Replace the mains power cord if the insulation is damaged or if the insulation
shows signs of wear.
Use Product-approved measurement category (CAT), voltage, and amperage
rated accessories (probes, test leads, and adapters) for all measurements.
Do not use test leads if they are damaged. Examine the test leads for damaged
insulation and measure a known voltage.
Do not use the Product if it is damaged.
The battery door must be closed and locked before you operate the Product.
Do not work alone.
2
Use this Product indoors only.
Do not use the Product around explosive gas, vapor, or in damp or wet
environments.
Use only the external mains power supply included with the Product.
Do not exceed the Measurement Category (CAT) rating of the lowest rated
individual component of a Product, probe, or accessory.
Keep fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.
Do not use a current measurement as an indication that a circuit is safe to
touch. A voltage measurement is necessary to know if a circuit is hazardous.
Do not touch voltages >30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc.
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, between the terminals or between
each terminal and earth ground.
Measure a known voltage first to make sure that the Product operates correctly.
De-energize the circuit or wear personal protective equipment in compliance
with local requirements before you apply or remove the flexible current probe.
Remove all probes, test leads, and accessories before the battery door is
opened.
Do not use USB accessories when the Product is installed in environment with
wires or exposed metal parts with hazardous live voltage such as in cabinets.
Do not operate the touch screen with sharp objects
Power Logger
Safety Information
Do not use the Product if the protection film on the touch panel is damaged.
Do not touch the metal parts of one test lead when the other is still connected to
hazardous voltage.
