VOLTCRAFT GT-6000 Notice D'emploi page 43

• Check the measurement device and test leads for signs of damage before each measurement. Never
take measurements if the protective insulation is damaged (torn, missing, etc.). The test leads come with
a wear indicator. The second layer of insulation will become visible if the lead is damaged (the second
layer of insulation is a different colour). If this occurs, discontinue use and replace the measurement
accessory.
• Do not use the measurement device just before, during or just after an electrical storm (electric shock /
high-power surges!). Ensure that your hands, shoes, clothes, the floor, circuit and circuit components
are dry.
• Do not use the product in the immediate vicinity of strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields, transmitter
aerials or HF generators. These may distort the measurements.
• If you suspect that safe operation is no longer possible, stop using the device immediately and prevent
unauthorised use. Safe operation can no longer be assumed if:
- There are signs of damage
- The device does not function properly
- The device was stored under unfavourable conditions for a long period of time
- The device was subjected to rough handling during transport.
• Do not switch the measurement device on immediately after it has been brought from a cold room into
a warm one. The condensation generated may destroy the product. Leave the device switched off and
allow it to reach room temperature.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly, as it may become a dangerous toy for children.
• Observe the safety information in each section.
