SAFETY INFORMATION
The digital clamp meter has been designed according to IEC1010 1 and IEC1010 2 032 concerning safety requirements for electrical measuring instruments and hand-held current clamps with double insulation overvoltage category 1000V CAT II 600V CAT III and pollution 2.
This meter complies with the requirements of the following European Community Directives:
89 / 336 / EEC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) and 73 / 23 / EEC (Low Voltage) as amended by 93 / 68 / EEC (CE Marking).
However, electrical noise or intense electromag­netic fields in the vicinity of the equipment may
disturb the measurement circuit. Measuring instruments will also respond to
unwanted signals that may be present within the measurement circuit.
Users should exercise care and take appropriate precautions to avoid misleading.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Follow all safety and operating instructions to ensure maximum personal safety during the operation and to ensure the meter is used safely and is kept in good operating condition.
Read the operating instructions thoroughly and completely before operating your meter. Pay attention to WARNINGS, which will inform you of potentially dangerous proce­dures. The instructions in these warnings
must be followed. Always inspect your meter and test leads for
2
any sign of damage or abnormality before every use. If any abnormal conditions exist (i.e. broken test leads, cracked cases, display not reading, etc.), do not attempt to take any measurements.
Do not expose the instrument to direct sunlight, extreme temperature or moisture. Never ground yourself when taking electrical
measurements. Keep your body isolated from ground by using dry clothing, rubber shoes, rubber mat or any approved insulating material.
You always are careful when working with voltages above 60V dc or 30V ac rms. Keep fingers behind the probe barriers while measuring.
To avoid damages to the instrument, do not exceed the maximum limits of the input values shown in the technical specification tables.
Never use the meter to measure voltages that might exceed the maximum allowable input value of any function.

MAINTENANCE
Never touch exposed wiring, connections or any live circuit when attempting to take measurements. Before opening the case, always disconnect test leads from all energized circuits. Never use the meter unless the back cover is in place and fastened completely. Do not use abrasives or solvents on the meter. To clean it using a damp cloth and mild detergent only. Qualified and trained service technicians should only perform calibration and repair of the meter.

REPLACING THE BATTERY
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock or personal injury, remove the test leads and any input signals before replacing the battery. Replace only with same type of battery.
When the electrical tester displays the “ ” mark
or the backlight be not very lit, the battery must be replaced to maintain proper operation. Use the following procedure to replacing the battery:
1.
2.
The Rotary Switch is used to select OFF. Disconnect test leads from any live source and remove the test leads from the input terminals.

3.
4.
5.
Remove screws on the battery cover and open the cover. Remove the exhausted battery and replace with three new 1.5V size AAA batteries. Place battery cover and secure by a screw.
CAUTION
