In this operating manual, keys are indicated by brackets <..> .
The key symbol (e.g. <ENTER>) generally indicates a short keystroke
(under 2 sec) in this operating manual. A long keystroke (approx.
2 sec) is indicated by the underscore behind the key symbol (e.g.
<ENTER_>).

Caution
Only connect measuring cells to the meter that cannot return any
voltages or currents that are not allowed (> SELV and > current
circuit with current limiting).
Almost all customary measuring cells fulfill these conditions.

This operating manual contains basic instructions that you must follow
during the commissioning, operation and maintenance of the meter.
Consequently, all responsible personnel must read this operating man-
ual before working with the meter.
The operating manual must always be available within the vicinity of the
meter.
Target group The meter was developed for work in the field and in the laboratory.
Thus, we assume that, as a result of their professional training and
experience, the operators will know the necessary safety precautions
to take when handling chemicals.
Safety instructions Safety instructions in this operating manual are indicated by the warn-
ing symbol (triangle) in the left column. The signal word (e.g. "Caution")
indicates the level of danger:
Warning
indicates instructions that must be followed precisely in order to
avoid possibly great dangers to personnel.
Caution
indicates instructions that must be followed precisely in order to
avoid the possibility of slight injuries or damage to the instrument
or the environment.
Further notes
Note
indicates notes that draw your attention to special features.
Note
indicates cross-references to other documents, e.g. operating manu-
als.
