3.4 Mains Connection

Ð Connect the test instrument to 230 V or 120 V mains power

(depending on the country-specific design) with the included

mains connector cable.

Attention!

If a connection via earthing contact outlet is not possible,

disconnect the mains from all sources of voltage before

connecting the cables of the coupling socket via pick-up

clips with the mains connections, as shown in the draw-

ing.

If a battery pack has not been installed, the mains connection

symbol appears after the test instrument has been

switched on.

If a battery pack has been installed (feature C1), it is automatically

recharged. The battery symbol appears at the display, and

the blinking bars shown in this symbol indicate the remaining

capacity which still needs to be charged. The device need not be

disconnected from mains power after the batteries have been fully

charged (overcharge protection).

3.4.1 DC Operation (automotive charging adapter in preparation)

If a battery pack (feature C1) has been installed and the device is

not connected to the mains, the battery symbol appears at

the display when the device is switched on, and the number of

dark bars displayed in the symbol indicates the battery charge

level.

After installing the battery pack, the device is automatically sup-

plied with power from the batteries.

The automotive charging adapter (feature J1) can be used to

operate the device and charge the batteries.
