d) Replacing the 10 A input fuse
The 10 A current measuring input is equipped with a ceramic high-performance fuse. If you cannot take measure-
ments in this range, you will need to replace the fuse.
Follow the steps below to replace the fuse:
- Disconnect the measuring leads from the circuit and the multimeter, and then switch off the multimeter.
- Remove the battery/fuse compartment cover (see "Opening the battery/fuse compartment").
- Replace the defective fuse with a new fuse of the same type and nominal voltage. The F1 has the following speci-
fications:
Ceramic Superflink 6FF 12 A/1000 V
Dimensions: 32 mm x 6.4 mm
- Carefully replace the battery/fuse compartment cover.
Using patched fuses or bridging the fuse holder is not permitted for safety reasons. This may
cause a fire or explosion. Never use the multimeter when the battery/fuse compartment is open.
The mA/µA input is equipped with a maintenance-free resettable PTC fuse. You do not need to
replace the fuse in this input.
