 WARNING
Before attempting to open the case, be sure that test leads
have been disconnected from measurement circuits to avoid
electric shock hazard.
For protection against fire, replace fuse only with specified

6. HOW TO USE THE HOLSTER

The holster is used to protect the meter and to make the
measurement more comfortable. it comes with two stands
installed together. The following figure shows how to use the
holster to:
a. Support the meter with a standard angle.
b. Support the meter with a small angle using the little
stand
c. Hang the meter on the wall using the little stand. Take
the little stand off from the backside of the large stand
and insert it into holes located upper on the holster.
d. Hold test leads.

CAUTION:
“Using this appliance in an environment with a strong radiated
radio-frequency electromagnetic field9approximately 3V/m),
may influence its measuring accuracy. The measuring result
can be strongly deviating from the actual value”
