Troubleshooting

Before replacing a fuse, always switch the instrument off and unplug from power
supply. Defective fuses may be replaced only with the replacement fuses supplied
together with the instrument.

Before plugging the power cable
back in and switching on the instru-
ment, you must have identified and
corrected the cause of the faulty
fuse.

To replace a fuse, proceed as follows:

With a screwdriver (30), carefully push out
the Hood (34) of the fuse insert (31) at rear of
instument and and open it upwards.

(Fig. 33

).

Remove the fuse insert (31) – it contains two
fuses (32) on its rear.

Check that the thin wire (33) in the glass
capillary of a fuse is intact. If not, the fuse
must be replaced.

Insert the fuse insert with the two fuses and
start up the instrument again.
