5) MAINTENANCE
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the meter from any circuit, remove the test leads from the
input jacks and turn OFF the meter before opening the case. Do not operate with open case. Install
only the same type of fuse or equivalent
Cleaning and Storage
Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent; do not use abrasives or solvents.
If the meter is not to be used for periods of longer than 60 days, remove the battery and store it
separately
Trouble Shooting
If the instrument fails to operate, check battery, fuses, leads, etc., and replace as necessary.
Double check operating procedure as described in this user’s manual
If the instrument voltage-resistance input terminal has subjected to high voltage transient (caused
by lightning or switching surge to the system) by accident or abnormal conditions of operation, the
series fusible resistors will be blown off (become high impedance) like fuses to protect the user and
the instrument. Most measuring functions through this terminal will then be open circuit. The series
fusible resistors and the spark gaps should then be replaced by qualified technician.
