Maintenance

Basic maintenance for the Tester includes cleaning, checking the battery charge, and replacing
depleted batteries.
Cleaning the Tester
To avoid electrical shock or damage to the Tester, never allow
water inside the case. To avoid damaging the Tester case,
never use solvents on the Tester.
If the Tester requires cleaning, wipe it down with a cloth that is lightly dampened with water or a
mild detergent. Do not use aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents, or methanol-based fluids
when wiping down the tester. These cleaning agents will damage the Tester case.

Testing the Batteries

Perform a self test, described later in this document, to determine the charge state of the batteries
on the Tester. The self test will not work with depleted batteries. On T+ PRO Testers, the low
battery icon ( B ) on the LCD indicates that the batteries need to be replaced.
Replacing the Batteries
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury:
•
Disconnect test leads from any electrical source before opening
the battery compartment.
•
Do not operate the Tester with the battery door or portions of the
cover removed or loosened.
To replace the batteries, do the following:
1. Remove the battery door by using a flat blade screwdriver to turn the battery door
fastener one-quarter turn counterclockwise.
2. Observing proper polarity, replace the batteries with two new AAA alkaline batteries.
3. Replace the battery door and secure it by turning the battery door fastener one-
quarter turn clockwise.

Calibration Adjustment

The T+ and T+ Pro have no field calibration. If the UUT fails any performance test, contact Fluke
Service for repair. See "Contacting Fluke."

Performance Tests

To avoid possible electric shock, do not perform the
performance test procedures unless the Tester is fully
assembled and you are qualified to do so.
The following performance tests verify the complete operation of the Tester and check the
accuracy of each Tester function against its specifications. The recommended calibration interval
is 12 months. In the performance tests, the Tester is referred to as the unit under test (UUT). If the
UUT fails any performance test, contact Fluke Service for repair. See "Contacting Fluke."
