10. Cleaning
Before cleaning the device, switch it off and disconnect it from the
item being measured.
Opening any covers on the product or removing
parts – unless this is possible by hand – may expose
voltage-carrying components.
Before cleaning or repairing the device, turn it off and
disconnect all components.
• Do not use scouring, chemical or aggressive cleaning agents
such as benzene, alcohol or similar chemicals. These might at-
tack the surface of the device. In addition, the vapours emitted
by these substances are explosive and harmful to your health.
Do not use sharp-edged tools, screwdrivers or metal brushes
to clean the device.
• Use a clean, damp, lint-free and antistatic cloth to clean the
device and the test leads.
