General Safety Information

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of

operation, service and repair of this instrument. Failure to comply with these

precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety

standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the instrument. Agilent

Technologies assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to comply with these

requirements.

WARNING

• Read this operation manual completely before using this device and

follow all safety instructions.

• This device is for indoor use at an altitude of up to 2000 m.

• Avoid working alone.

• Use the device only as specified in this manual; otherwise, the

protection provided by the meter may be impaired.

• Never measure voltage with this meter.

• Do not use this device if it looks damaged.

• Inspect the leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Replace

damaged leads.

• Disconnect the power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors

before testing.

• Be cautious when working with voltages above 60 VDC or 30 VRMS

and 42.4 Vpeak, as it may cause a shock hazard.

• Always use specified battery.

• The meter is designed in compliance with IEC 61010-1.

• CE requirement: Under the influence of RF field according to

standard, the supplied test leads will pick up induced noise. To have

better shielding effect, a short-twisted lead should be used.

CAUTION

• Ensure proper insertion of battery in the meter, and follow the correct

polarity.
