This manual contains information and warnings
essential for safe operation of the product and for
maintaining it in safe operating condition. Before
using the product, be sure to carefully read the fol-
lowing safety notes.
Safety Symbols
Safety Notes
This product is designed to conform to IEC
61010 Safety Standards, and has been thor-
oughly tested for safety prior to shipment.
However, mishandling during use could
result in injury or death, as well as damage to
the product. Be certain that you understand
the instructions and precautions in the man-
ual before use. We disclaim any responsibil-
ity for accidents or injuries not resulting
directly from product defects.
In the manual, the symbol indicates particu-
larly important information that the user should
read before using the product.
The symbol printed on the product indicates
that the user should refer to a corresponding topic
inthemanual(markedwiththe symbol)before
using the relevant function.
Indicates DC (Direct Current).

The following symbols in this manual indicate the
relative importance of cautions and warnings.
Other Symbols
Accuracy We define measurement tolerances in terms of
rdg. (reading) and dgt. (digit) values, with the fol-
lowing meanings:
Indicates that incorrect operation presents an ex-
treme hazard that could result in serious injury or
death to the user.
Indicates that incorrect operation presents a sig-
nificant hazard that could result inserious injury or
death to the user.
Indicates that incorrect operation presents a pos-
sibility of injury to the user or damage to the prod-
uct.
Advisory items related to performance or correct
operation of the product.
Indicates the prohibited action
❖Indicates the reference
rdg. (reading or displayed value)
Thevaluecurrentlybeingmeasuredandindicated
on the measuring product.
dgt. (resolution)
The smallest displayable unit on a digital measur-
ing product, i.e., the input value that causes the
digital display to show a "1".

Measurement categories (Overvoltage categories)
This product conforms to the safety requirements
for CAT I measurement products.
To ensure safe operation of measurement prod-
ucts, IEC 61010 establishes safety standards for
various electrical environments, categorized as
CAT I to CAT IV, and called measurement catego-
ries. These are defined as follows.
Higher-numbered categories correspond to electri-
cal environments with greater momentary energy,
so a measurement product designed for CAT III
environments can endure greater momentary
energy than one designed for CAT II. Using a mea-
surement product in an environment designated
with a higher-numbered category than that for
which the product is rated could result in a severe
accident, and must be carefully avoided.
Never use a CAT I measuring product in CAT II, III,
or IV environments.
The measurement categories comply with the
Overvoltage Categories of the IEC60664 Stan-
dards.
CAT I Secondary electrical circuits connected to an AC electri-
cal outlet through a transformer or similar device.
CAT II Primary electrical circuits in equipment connected to an
AC electrical outlet by a power cord (portable tools,
household appliances, etc.)
CAT III Primary electrical circuits of heavy equipment (fixed in-
stallations) connected directly to the distribution panel,
and feeders from the distribution panel to outlets.
CAT IV The circuit from the service drop to the service entrance,
and to the power meter and primary overcurrent protec-
tion device (distribution panel).
