General Instructions<br />
Introduction<br />
You have just purchased a 20,000-count 4½-digit benchtop<br />
multimeter. Thank you for your confi<strong>de</strong>nce in the quality of our<br />
products.<br />
This instrument conforms to safety standard NF EN 61010-1 (2001),<br />
relating to electronic measuring instruments. For best quality<br />
service, please read these instructions carefully and respect<br />
operating precautions.<br />
Safety<br />
This instrument, single insulation, was <strong>de</strong>signed for indoor use, in a<br />
level 2 pollution environment, at an altitu<strong>de</strong> below 2,000 m, It can be<br />
used for CAT II installation circuit measurements, for voltage never<br />
exceeding 600 V (AC or DC) in relation to earth.<br />

Before use<br />
During use<br />
CAT I: CAT I circuits are protected by <strong>de</strong>vices limiting transient<br />
overvoltage to a low level.<br />
Example: protected electronic circuits<br />
CAT II: CAT II circuits are power supply circuits for household or<br />
analog units that can support medium-level transient<br />
overvoltage.<br />
Example: household appliance and portable tool power<br />
supply<br />
CAT III: CAT III circuits are power supply circuits that can support<br />
major transient overvoltage.<br />
Example: industrial unit or machine power supply<br />
CAT IV: CAT IV circuits can support very high transient overvoltage.<br />
Example: power input<br />
• Respect environment and storage requirements.<br />
• Make sure that power cable supplied with the unit is in good<br />
operating condition (three-wire network: phase, neutral and<br />
earth), conforms to safety standard NF EN 61010-1 (2001) and is<br />
connected to instrument as well as network.<br />
• Never exceed the protection limit values indicated in the<br />
specifications for each type of measurement.<br />
• When the multimeter is linked to measurement circuits, do not<br />
touch unused terminals.<br />
• When the scale of the value to be measured is unknown, check<br />
that the scale initially set on the multimeter is the highest possible<br />
or, wherever possible, choose the autoranging mo<strong>de</strong>.<br />
• Before changing functions, disconnect the test leads from the<br />
circuit un<strong>de</strong>r test.<br />
