2. Safety

DANGER!

Danger of death caused by electric current

Upon contact with live parts, there is a direct danger of death.

■

Recharging using a defective power supply unit (e.g. short circuit

between the mains voltage and the output voltage) can result in life-

threatening voltages at the precision hand-held pressure indicator!

■

Only use the mains connector permitted by WIKA for the precision

hand-held pressure indicator.

■

Never use a damaged or worn-looking battery charger.

The safety of the operator may be endangered if, for example:

■

there is visible damage to the instrument.

■

the instrument is not working as specified.

■

the instrument has been stored under unsuitable conditions for an extended period of

time.

If there is any doubt, please return the instrument to the manufacturer for repair or mainte-

nance.
