6600 COUNTS DIGITAL MULTIMETER   

USER'S MANUAL

 

voltage pulses at the test points can damage the multimeter. Use of a TV filter will attenuate any such pulses. 

* Use just one 6F22 battery, properly installed in the Meter's battery case, to power the Meter. 

* Replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator ( ) appears. With a low battery, the Meter might produce false 

readings that can lead to electric shock and personal injury. 

* Do not measure voltages above 1000V in Category III, or 600V in Category 

Č

 installations.   

* When in REL mode, the “

REL” 

symbol is displayed. Caution must be used because hazardous voltage may be 

present. 

* Do not operate the Meter with the case (or part of the case) removed. 

1.2 Symbols:

1.3 Instructions 

* Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the Meter case or battery cover. 
* When servicing the Meter, use only specified replacement parts. 
* Before opening up the instrument, always disconnect from all sources of electric current and make sure you are 

not charged with static electricity, which may destroy internal components. 

* Any adjustment, maintenance or repair work carried out on the meter while it is live should be carried out only by
