4.1 Preparation and safety measures

Fitting the battery
Before using the instrument, the battery must be fitted. This is
carried out as follows:
4Separate the instrument from any circuit, and remove the test
leads.
4Open the housing by removing the 3 screws on the rear face.
4Fit a battery (type 9 V IEC 6LR61), taking care that the polarity
is correct. Make sure that no wires are trapped between the 2
halves of the housing, and close it again.
4The instrument is now ready for use.
• The selector switch must be turned to the desired type of
measurement before the probes are connected to the unit under
test (UUT).
• Before switching to a new function, the probes must always be
removed from the UUT.
• Use the instrument only in clean and dry surroundings. Dirt and
moisture reduce the effectiveness of the insulation, with
consequent danger of electric shock, especially when dealing
with high voltages.
• Use the instrument only in the specified ranges.
