Safety Information; Symbols Used In This Manual - Amprobe 37XR-A Mode D'emploi

The 37XR-A Digital Multimeter is UL, CSA, and EN61010-1 certified for
Installation Category III – 600V and Category II – 1000V. It is recommended for
use with local level power distribution, appliances, portable equipment, etc,
where only smaller transient overvoltages may occur, and not for primary
supply lines, overhead lines and cable systems.
Do not exceed the maximum overload limits per function (see specifications)
nor the limits marked on the instrument itself. Never apply more than 1000V
dc/750 V ac rms between the test lead and earth ground.
Inspect the DMM, test leads and accessories before every use. Do not use any
damaged part.
Never ground yourself when taking measurements. Do not touch exposed
circuit elements or test probe tips.
Do not operate the instrument in an explosive atmosphere.
Exercise extreme caution when: measuring voltage >20V // current >10mA // AC
power line with inductive loads // AC power line during electrical storms //
current, when the fuse blows in a circuit with open circuit voltage >1000 V //
servicing CRT equipment.
Always measure current in series with the load – NEVER ACROSS a voltage
source. Check fuse first. Never replace a fuse with one of a different rating.
Do not change the position of the Function/Range Switch while the MIN MAX,
feature is enabled. Erroneous readings will result.
Remove test leads before opening the Battery Cover or case.
