Plug in the high voltage test cable to high voltage output terminal.
Page 23
Precaution before Use follow the instruction described above for actions. Do not touch any area that may cause electric shock especially when the power is just turned off. 10. Ensure the charged voltage is fully discharged The time required for fully discharging the voltage depends on the test voltage applied and the features of UUT.
Page 24
When pressing the START key the voltage meter has readings but the DANGER LED indicator is still off, it means the indicator may be broken. Please power off the hardware and replace it with another device, then send the broken one back to Chroma or its distributor for repair service.
Page 25
Precaution before Use package for storage. For proper test and safety measures, do not place the Tester under direct sunlight, high temperature, trembling, humid or dusty area. 21. Warming up The tester is activated when power is on; however, in order to meet the specifications for accuracy please warm it up for 15 minutes or above.
