2. Safety Precautions

To ensure safe operation of the equipment and eliminate the danger of serious injury
due to short-circuits (arcing), the following safety precautions must be observed.
Damages resulting from failure to observe these safety precautions are exempt from
any legal claims whatever.
* Do not exceed the maximum permissible input ratings (danger of serious injury
and/or of the equipment).
* Check test leads and probes for faulty insulations or bare wires before
connection to the equipment.
* Replace a defective fuse only with a fuse of the original rating. Never short-circuit
fuse or fuse housing.
* Never touch the tips of test leads or probes.
* Comply with the warning labels and other info on the equipment.
* Conduct measuring works only in dry clothing and in rubber shoes, i. e. on
isolating mats.
* Do not connect voltage sources across the OHM/COM terminals of the
equipment.
* Always start with the highest measuring range when measuring unknown values.
* Disconnect test leads or probe from the measuring circuit before
switching modes or functions.
* Do not subject the equipment to direct sunlight or extreme tem-
peratures.
* Do not subject the equipment to extreme humidity or dampness.
* Do not subject the equipment to shocks or strong vibrations.
* Do not operate the equipment near strong magnetic fields (motors, transformers,
etc.).
* Keep hot soldering irons or guns away from the equipment.
* Allow the equipment to stabilize at room temperature before taking up
measurement (import for exact measurements).
* Do not make current measurements at the Volt/Ohm-Input with connected test-
leads
* Only for indoor-use.
* Measuring instruments don´t belong to children hands
