2.3 Special hazards

DANGER!
Danger of death caused by electric current
Upon contact with live parts, there is a direct danger of death.
Operation or charging using a defective power supply unit (e.g. short
■
circuit from the mains voltage to the output voltage) can result in
life-threatening voltages at the instrument!
Only use the mains connector approved by WIKA for the precision
■
hand-held thermometer.
Never use a damaged or worn-looking battery charger.
■
WARNING!
Residual media at the dismounted hand-held thermometer and/or
temperature probe can result in a risk to persons, the environment and
the equipment.
Take sufficient precautionary measures.
WARNING!
Observe the working conditions in accordance with chapter
■
3 "Specifications".
Do not apply force to plug the connector into the socket. The
■
measuring channel and interface connectors are different.
If no probe is connected to the measuring instrument during
■
switching on, "open" is indicated on the display (see chapter
9 "Faults").
Do not use the hand-held thermometer in damaged condition. Before
■
using the instrument, check that there are no cracks or missing
plastic parts on the case. Pay particular attention to the insulation of
the connectors.
Select the correct temperature probe and correct measuring range
■
for the measurement.
The battery cover must be closed and locked in place before the
■
instrument is operated.
Do not use the instrument if it is not working properly. The instrument
■
protection might be compromised. If in doubt, have the instrument
checked.
