Warning
To avoid possible electric shock or
personal injury:
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage.
See specifications for supported ranges.
• Follow all equipment safety procedures.
• Do not use the calibrator if it is damaged.
Before you use the calibrator, inspect the
case. Look for cracks or missing plastic. Pay
particular attention to the insulation surround-
ing the connectors.
• Select the proper function and range for your
measurement.
• Make sure the battery cover is closed and
latched before you operate the calibrator.
• Remove test leads from the calibrator before
you open the battery door.
• Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation
or exposed metal.
• When using the probes, keep your fingers
away from the probe contacts. Keep your
fingers behind the finger guards on the test
leads.
• Do not use the calibrator if it operates abnor-
mally. Protection may be impaired. When in
doubt, have the calibrator serviced.
• Do not operate the calibrator around explo-
sive gas, vapor, or dust.
• Disconnect test leads before changing to
another measure or source function.
• When servicing the calibrator, use only speci-
fied replacement parts.
• To avoid false readings, which could lead to
possible electric shock or personal injury,
replace the battery as soon as the battery
indicator appears.
