  • Page 1 ARCTIC HAYES PROFESSIONAL DIGITAL MULTIMETER WITH TEMPERATURE FUNCTION User Manual AH118 Before using the instrument, please read this manual carefully, and save for future reference.
  • Page 2 Safety Instructions The instrument is designed according to the requirements of the international electrical safety standard IEC61010-1 for the safety requirements of the electronic testing instruments. The design and manufacture of instruments strictly comply with the requirements of IEC61010-1 CAT.III 600V over voltage safety standards.
  • Page 3 Safety Instructions • By measuring the known voltage to check whether the meter work is normal, if it is not normal or damaged, do not use. • Before using the instrument, please check whether there is any crack or plastic damage in the instrument case.
  • Page 4 Do not use probes with a different specification. Calibration To maintain the integrity of measurements, Arctic Hayes recommends that the multimeter is calibrated annually at an approved Calibration Laboratory. Arctic Hayes can offer this service, please contact sales@arctic-hayes.com or call +44(0)113 271 5245 to arrange.
