    ❉ Full compliance with safety standards can be guaranteed only if used with the test leads supplied. If necessary, they must be replaced with the same model or same electronic ratings. Measuring leads must be in good condition. Replacements are available from CLARKE International - see back page. CDM-20 Page-5...
  • Page 7: During Use

    1.2 DURING USE ❉ Never exceed the protection limit values indicated in specifications for each range of measurement. ❉ When the meter is linked to measurement circuit, do not touch unused terminals. ❉ When the value scale to be measured is unknown before hand, set the range selector at the highest position.
  • Page 8: Safety Information

    If any faults or abnormalities are observed, the meter cannot be used. It must be inspected and ❉ repaired by a qualified technician, or returned to CLARKE International for repair. ❉ Never use the meter unless the back cover is in place and fastened fully.
