If you have reason to believe that the device can no longer be operated safely, disconnect it immediate-
ly and make sure it is not unintentionally operated. It can be assumed that safe operation is no longer
possible if:
- the device shows visible damage,
- the device does not function any longer or
- after it has been stored under unfavourable conditions over a period of time or
- after it has been exposed to heavy stress during transport.
Do not switch on the measuring instrument immediately after it has been taken from a cold to a warm
environment. The condensation generated could cause serious damage to the device. Allow the device
to reach room temperature before switching it on.
Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. It may become a dangerous toy for children.
You should also observe the safety instructions in the individual chapters.
Product description
The analogue multimeter (referred to as "multimeter" hereafter) is equipped with a shock-absorbing
pointer instrument. The scale is equipped with a mirror which allows accurate readings. The meter move-
ment is supported by taut bands to ensure lossless measuring.
The multimeter can be used in any operating position. The back support bracket causes a slightly slant-
ed position, which makes it easier to read the display when measuring. The removable rubber holster
protects the measuring device from blows.
The mA current range is protected against overload with a ceramic quick-break fuse. The 10 A range is
unprotected and must not be exceeded.
The individual measuring functions and ranges are selected via a rotary switch.
The multimeter can be used for hobby or professional applications.
The following batteries are used as voltage supply:
1 x 9V block + 2 x mignon (type AA)
On delivery, the measuring lines might be covered with protective sleeves. Prior to use, pull the sleeves
off the safety plugs and the test prods.
After use, put them back on for transport protection.
The scale display can be calibrated via the calibration screw. Perform this prior to each measuring oper-
ation to prevent faulty measurements.
