IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
•
When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should always be
followed.
•
The voltage detectors are designed to be used by skilled persons in accordance
with safe methods of work.
•
The voltages marked on the voltage detector are nominal voltages and the voltage
detector is only to be used on installations with the specified nominal voltages.
•
The different indicating signals of the voltage detector are not to be used for
measuring purposes.
•
Before using a voltage detector at locations with a high background noise level, it
has to be determined whether the audible signal is perceptible.
•
It is important to check the state of the batteries (not included) before use and
replace if necessary.
•
Voltages above 75V DC or 50V AC may pose a serious shock hazard.
•
Before using the meter check for physical damage to the casing, in particular
around the connectors. If the case is damaged do not use the meter.
•
Check the test probes for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check the leads
for continuity.
•
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the meter, between the
terminals or between any terminal and ground.
•
Do not use or store the meter in an environment of high temperature, high
humidity, an inflammable nature, or where a strong magnetic field exists.
•
Disconnect the circuit power and discharge all high voltage capacitors before
testing resistance, continuity and diodes.
•
The meter may only be opened by a qualified service technician for calibration and
repair.
•
Remove the batteries if the meter is not in use for a long period of time.
•
Ensure the batteries are inserted correctly, observing the plus and minus marks on
both the batteries and the compartment.
•
Fit a full set of batteries at one time.
•
Remove dead batteries from the meter, or if it is not going to be used for a long
time.
•
Never mix old and new batteries together, or different types of batteries.
•
Never dispose of batteries in a fire, or attempt to recharge ordinary batteries.
•
Clean the instrument using a soft, dry cloth.
•
Do not use any chemicals, abrasives or solvents that may damage the instrument.
