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

•Observe all markings on the instrument before connecting any

wiring to the instrument.

• When working above 60 VDC, 30 VAC RMS or 42 V peak, exercise

caution – such range pose a shock hazard.

• Do not measure more than the rated voltage (as marked on the

meter) between terminals, or between terminal and earth ground.

• Double-check the meter’s operation by measuring a known voltage.

• For current measurement, turn off circuit power before connecting

the meter to the circuit. Always place the meter in series with the

circuit.

• When connecting probes, always connect the common test probe

first. When disconnecting probes, always disconnect the live test

probe first.

• Detach test probes from the meter before you open the battery cover.

• Do not use the meter with the battery cover or part of the cover

removed or loose.

• Replace the battery as soon as the low battery indicator flashes

on screen. This is to avoid false readings, which may lead to possible

electric shock or personal injury.

• Do not operate the product in an explosive atmosphere or in the

presence of flammable gases or fumes.

• Inspect the case for cracks or missing plastic. Pay extra attention to

the insulation surrounding the connectors. Do not use the meter if it

is damaged.

• Inspect the test probes for damaged insulation or exposed metal,

and check for continuity. Do not use the test probe if it is damaged.

VI U1241B/U1242B User’s and Service Guide

WARNING

• Do not use repaired fuses or short-circuited fuse-holders. For

continued protection against fire, replace the line fuses only with

fuses of the same voltage and current rating and recommended type.

• Do not service or perform adjustments alone. Under certain

condition, hazardous voltages may exist, even with the equipment

switched off. To avoid dangerous electric shock, service personnel

must not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another

person, capable of rendering resuscitation or first aid, is present.

• Do not substitute parts or modify equipment to avoid the danger of

introducing additional hazards. Return the product to Agilent

Technologies Sales and Service Office for service and repair to

ensure the safety features are maintained

• Do not operate damaged equipment as the safety protection features

built into this product may have been impaired, either through

physical damage, excessive moisture, or any other reason. Remove

power and do not use the product until safe operation can be verified

by service-trained personnel. If necessary, return the product to

Agilent Technologies Sales and Service Office for service and repair

to ensure the safety features are maintained.

CAUTION

• Turn off circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors in the

circuit before you perform resistance, continuity, diodes, or

capacitance tests.

• Use the correct terminals, function, and range for your measurements.

• Never measure voltage when current measurement is selected.

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

polarity.
