Actions that must be performed
Symbols afxed to the device
Precaution or hazard (See corresponding
topic.)
Risk of electric shock
Protected throughout by double insulation
or reinforced insulation
Device may be connected to or
disconnected from a live conductor
Flexible sensors can be connected to or
disconnected from live conductors when
using appropriate protective insulation.
Other sensors can only be connected to
or disconnected from insulated conductors
suited to the voltage of the conductor under
measurement.

DANGER
Measuring a location with a higher
category number than the measurement
category indicated on this device may
result in a serious accident such as
electric shock.
To avoid electric shock, do not touch
the portion beyond the protective
barrier during use.
Never apply voltage to the test leads
when the resistance and continuity
functions are selected. Doing so may
damage the instrument and result
in bodily injury. To avoid electrical
accidents, remove power from the
circuit before measuring.

EN-4
Safety Notes
WARNING
•To avoid electric shock, short circuits
and damage to the instrument,
disconnect the test leads from the
measurement object before switching
the rotary switch.
•To prevent electric shock, when
measuring the voltage of a power
line use a test lead that satises the
following criteria:
•Conforms to safety standards
IEC61010 or EN61010
•Of measurement category III or IV
•Its rated voltage is higher than the
voltage to be measured
•The optional test leads for this
instrument conform to the safety
standard EN61010. Use a test lead
in accordance with its dened
measurement category and rated
voltage.

EN-5
Safety Notes
WARNING
•Installing the instrument in
inappropriate locations may cause
a malfunction of instrument or may
give rise to an accident. Avoid the
following locations:
•Exposed to direct sunlight or high
temperature
•Exposed to corrosive or combustible
gases
•Exposed to a strong electromagnetic
eld or electrostatic charge
•Near induction heating systems
(such as high-frequency induction
heating systems and IH cooking
equipment)
•Susceptible to vibration
•Exposed to water, oil, chemicals, or
solvents
•Exposed to high humidity or
condensation
•Exposed to high quantities of dust
particles

EN-6
Safety Notes
WARNING
•Since there is a risk of electric shock,
check that the insulation on the test
lead and exible sensor (optional)
are neither ripped nor torn, and no
metal conductor inside the wire are
exposed before using the instrument.
If damaged, replace them with those
specied by our company.
•To prevent a short circuit accident,
be sure to use the test leads with the
sleeves attached when performing
measurements in the CAT III
measurement category.
•If the sleeves are inadvertently
removed during measurement, stop
the measurement.
•With regard to the electricity supply,
there are risks of electric shock, heat
generation, re, and arc ash due to
short circuits. If persons unfamiliar
with electricity measuring instrument
are to use the instrument, another
person familiar with such instruments
must supervise operations.
•This instrument is measured on a
live line. To prevent electric shock,
use appropriate protective insulation
and adhere to applicable laws and
regulations.
•Handle and dispose of batteries in
accordance with local regulations.

EN-7
Safety Notes
CAUTION
Do not place foreign objects between the
jaw tips (or exible loop couplings) or insert
foreign objects into the gaps of the jaws
(or exible loop couplings). Doing so may
worsen the performances of the sensor or
interfere with clamping action.
Poor performance or damage from battery
leakage could result. Observe the cautions
listed below:
•Do not use batteries after their
recommended expiry date.
•Do not leave a depleted battery inside the
instrument.
• Replace battery only with the specied
type.
•Remove the battery from the instrument if
it is to be stored for a long time.
•The indicator lights up when the
remaining battery capacity is low. In this case,
the instrument's reliability is not guaranteed.
Replace the battery immediately.
•To avoid battery depletion, turn the rotary switch
OFF after use (the auto power save feature
consumes a small amount of current).

EN-8
Inspection Before Measurement
Inspection Before Measurement
•Verify that the instrument operates normally to
ensure that no damage occurred during storage
or shipping. If you nd any damage, contact your
authorized Hioki distributor or reseller.
•If damage is suspected, check the section below
before contacting your authorized Hioki distributor
or reseller.
1
Check that the test lead is not broken.
Replace with the specied L9208 Test Lead.
2
Check that the resistance measurement and
continuity test operates normally.
Have the instrument repaired by the your
authorized Hioki distributor or reseller. The
instrument may have been subject to a voltage
of greater than 600 V during resistance
measurement or continuity testing.
3
Check that the battery voltage is not low.
Replace the battery.

Maintenance/Inspection
Maintenance/Inspection
Cleaning
•Measurements are degraded by dirt on the mating
surfaces of the jaw (or exible loop coupling), so
keep the surfaces clean by gently wiping with a
soft, dry cloth.
•To clean the device, wipe it gently with a soft cloth
moistened with water or mild detergent.
• Wipe the LCD display gently with a soft, dry cloth.
