General Safety Summary Carefully read the following safety precautions to avoid personal injury and prevent damage to the instrument and any products connected to it.
  • Page 6 When the equipment fails, please do not dismantle the machine for maintenance. The equipment contains capacitors, power supply, transformers, and other energy storage devices, which may cause high voltage damage. The internal devices of the equipment are sensitive to static electricity, and direct contact is easy to cause irreparable damage to the equipment.
  • Page 7 Only a lithium battery with the same specifications as the original battery should be used to replace the battery on board. Not to use the equipment for measurements on mains circuits, not to use the equipment for measurements on voltage exceed the voltage range describe in the manual.
