Trouble Shooting
If the instrument fails to operate, check batteries
and test leads etc., and replace as necessary.
Double check operating procedure as described
in this user's manual.
If the instrument voltage- resistance input terminal
has subjected to high voltage transient (caused
by lightning or switching surge to the system
under test) by accident or abnormal conditions of
operation, the protective impedance components
in series might be blown off (become high
impedance) like fuses to protect the user and the
instrument. Most measuring functions through
this terminal will then be open circuit. Refer to the
WARRANTY selection for obtaining warranty or
repairing service.
Cleaning and Storage
Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and
mild detergent; do not use abrasive or solvents.
If the meter is not to be used for periods of longer
than 60 days, remove the batteries and store them
separately.
Accuracy and calibration
Accuracy is specified for a period of one year after
calibration. Periodic calibration at interval of one
year is recommended to maintain meter accuracy.
If self diagnostic massage “C_Er” is being
displayed while powering on, some meter ranges
might be largely out of specifications.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the meter
from any circuit, remove the test leads from the
input jacks and turn OFF the meter before opening
the case. Do not operate with open case.
