MAINTAINING THE TESTER
Calibration
To ensure the accuracy of the measurements it is recommended that the instrument is
calibrated regularly by our service. We suggest a calibration interval of one year.
Cleaning
Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives or
solvents.
Dirt or moisture in the terminals can affect readings.
To clean the terminals:
1. Turn the meter off and remove all test leads.

3. Soak a new swab with alcohol. Work the swab around each terminal.
