Batteries / Rechargeable Batteries - VOLTCRAFT VC650BT Bedienungsanleitung

• Never carry out any measurements if the protecting insulation is defective (torn, ripped
off etc.).
• To avoid electric shock, make sure not to touch the connections/measuring points to be
measured directly or indirectly during measurement.
• During measuring, do not grip beyond the grip range markings (which you can feel)
present on the test prods.
• Do not use the multimeter just before, during or just after a thunderstorm (lightning!
/ high-energy overvoltage!). Make sure that your hands, shoes, clothing, the fl oor,
circuits and circuit components are dry.
• Avoid operating the product near:
- strong magnetic or electromagnetic fi elds
- transmitter aerials or HF generators.
This could affect the measurement.
• Do not switch the meter on immediately after it was taken from a cold to a warm
environment. The condensation that forms might destroy your device.
• Allow the device to reach room temperature before switching it on.
