∗ If any faults or abnormalities are observed, take the instrument out
of
service and ensure that it cannot be used until it has been
checked out.
∗ It is recommended to remove the battery from the instrument if not
used.
1.2 Protection
mechanisms
This instrument is fitted with various protection mechanisms :
∗ Varistor protection for limiting transients of over 600 V at the VΩ
terminal, particularly 6 kV pulse streams as defined by the French
standard IEEE 587.
∗ A PTC (positive temperature coefficient) resistor protects against
permanent overvoltages of up to 600
V during resistance,
continuity and diode test measurements. This protection is reset
automatically after overload.
∗ An IP protection rating of 40.
1.3 Safety
mechanisms
∗ The battery unit cannot be accessed without first disconnecting
the measuring leads.
∗ If the maximum range is repeatedly exceeded, an intermittent
audible signal w
arns the user in V
AC, VDC, mVDC, mVAC, IDC,
functions.
