Measuring; Switching On The Multimeter - VOLTCRAFT VC-519 Mode D'emploi

9. MEASURING

Do not exceed the maximum permitted input values. Do not touch any circuits
or parts of circuits if they may be subject to voltages higher than 33 V/ACrms
or 70 V/DC! Danger to life!
Before measuring, check the connected measuring lines for damage such as,
for example, cuts, cracks or squeezing. Defective measuring lines must no
longer be used! Danger to life!
During measuring, do not grip beyond the tangible grip area markings on the
test prods and the meter.
Only the two measuring lines that are required for measuring operation
must be connected to the meter at any time. Remove all measuring lines
not required from the meter for safety reasons when performing the current
measurement.
Measurements in electrical circuits >33 V/AC and >70 V/DC must only be car-
ried out by specialists and technically instructed personnel who are familiar
with the relevant regulations and the ensuing risks.
If "OL" (overload) appears on the display, you have exceeded the measuring range.
a) Switching on the Multimeter
The multimeter can be turned on and off using the rotary control. Turn the dial switch (13) to
the corresponding measurement function. To switch off, turn the dial switch to "OFF". Always
turn the meter off when it is not in use.
Before working with the meter, you have to insert the enclosed batteries.
Insertion and changing of the batteries is described in the chapter "Cleaning
and maintenance".
