Safety & Warnings
The manual includes the following safety warnings and precautions:
1. The units must be used within their specified range. Before plugging into the AC supply outlet, check whether the input rating conforms with your local supply. For certain models, a voltage selector is available, and it should be switched to the appropriate position before use.
2. The units are floating type power supplies. For ordinary use, ensure that the MASTER/SLAVE switch on the rear panel is set to the MASTER position, and either the (+) output terminal or the (-) terminal is connected to the GND terminal (chassis GND) via the shorting bar.
3. Use the unit within the specified ambient temperature range listed in the specification table.
4. Because the unit is cooled by natural convection, do not place objects on top to block the convection. Avoid placing the unit on or near any heat-emitting devices or using multiple units in a stacked configuration. For best results, use the unit in an environment that is as well cross-ventilated as possible.

Basic Usage and Operation Tips
Before taking any measurements, ensure the multimeter is set to the correct function and range. For most measurements, start with the highest range to prevent damage and then adjust downward for more precise readings. Always connect the test leads to the appropriate input jacks, and observe polarity when measuring DC voltage or current. Use the data hold feature to freeze readings for easier recording. When measuring current, never exceed the maximum rated input to avoid blowing the internal fuse.
Troubleshooting and Maintenance
If the multimeter displays erratic readings or no display at all, check the battery and replace it if necessary. Inspect the test leads for damage or wear and replace them if faulty. Clean the device regularly with a dry cloth and avoid exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures. If the fuse blows, replace it with the specified fuse type as indicated in the manual. For persistent issues, consult the troubleshooting section of the manual or contact authorized service centers.
Safety Reminder
Always observe proper safety precautions when using the Bk-precision-1623a. Do not exceed the maximum input limits specified for each measurement function. Avoid measuring live circuits with damaged test leads or a malfunctioning device. Use personal protective equipment as necessary, and never operate the multimeter in explosive or flammable environments. Proper handling and adherence to safety guidelines will ensure accurate measurements and prevent injury or equipment damage.
