SAFETY WARNINGS
The circuit under test must be switched off, de-energised and isolated before insulation test connections
are made.
Circuit connections must not be touched during an insulation test.
After insulation tests, capacitive circuits must be discharged before disconnecting the test leads.
Turning the instrument off, and manually discharging of circuits on completion of tests is recommended as
standard procedure, before touching any connections.
In certain circumstances, break-down of the circuit under test may cause the instrument to terminate the
test in an uncontrolled manner, possibly causing a loss of display while the circuit remains energised. In this
event, it is even more important that the 'ON/OFF' key is pressed, and the circuit manually discharged
before touching any connections.
Test leads including crocodile clips must be in good order, clean and with no broken or cracked insulation.
Replacement fuses must be of the correct type and rating.
The instrument should not be used if any part of it is damaged.
If water is present in the charger recess, the instrument must not be used. It is recommended that the
instrument is not used in wet weather conditions.
