Each Fluke product is warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service. The
warranty period is two years and begins on the date of shipment. Parts, product repairs, and services are warranted for 90
days. This warranty extends only to the original buyer or end-user customer of a Fluke authorized reseller, and does not
apply to fuses, disposable batteries, or to any product which, in Fluke's opinion, has been misused, altered, neglected,
contaminated, or damaged by accident or abnormal conditions of operation or handling. Fluke warrants that software will
operate substantially in accordance with its functional specifications for 90 days and that it has been properly recorded on
non-defective media. Fluke does not warrant that software will be error free or operate without interruption.
Fluke authorized resellers shall extend this warranty on new and unused products to end-user customers only but have no
authority to extend a greater or different warranty on behalf of Fluke. Warranty support is available only if product is
purchased through a Fluke authorized sales outlet or Buyer has paid the applicable international price. Fluke reserves the
right to invoice Buyer for importation costs of repair/replacement parts when product purchased in one country is submitted
for repair in another country.
Fluke's warranty obligation is limited, at Fluke's option, to refund of the purchase price, free of charge repair, or
replacement of a defective product which is returned to a Fluke authorized service center within the warranty period.
T6-1000/T6-600
To obtain warranty service, contact your nearest Fluke authorized service center to obtain return authorization information,
then send the product to that service center, with a description of the difficulty, postage and insurance prepaid (FOB
Destination). Fluke assumes no risk for damage in transit. Following warranty repair, the product will be returned to Buyer,
transportation prepaid (FOB Destination). If Fluke determines that failure was caused by neglect, misuse, contamination,
alteration, accident, or abnormal condition of operation or handling, including overvoltage failures caused by use outside
the product’s specified rating, or normal wear and tear of mechanical components, Fluke will provide an estimate of repair
costs and obtain authorization before commencing the work. Following repair, the product will be returned to the Buyer
transportation prepaid and the Buyer will be billed for the repair and return transportation charges (FOB Shipping Point).
Electrical Tester THIS WARRANTY IS BUYER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. FLUKE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, ARISING FROM ANY
CAUSE OR THEORY.
Since some countries or states do not allow limitation of the term of an implied warranty, or exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, the limitations and exclusions of this warranty may not apply to every buyer. If any
provision of this Warranty is held invalid or unenforceable by a court or other decision-maker of competent jurisdiction, such
holding will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision..

Service Information
• Examine the case before you use the Product. Look for cracks or missing plastic. Carefully look at the insulation
around the terminals.
• Examine the battery door decal for damage to this insulator. Look for any cracks, holes, or evidence of
delamination. This insulator houses a laminated foil that provides a capacitive current path for the FieldSense
function. This insulator provides a means of protection against electric shock when the COM probe test lead
(black) is installed into the back case.
• The battery door must be closed and locked before you operate the Product.
• Do not use the Product if it is damaged.
• Disable the Product if it is damaged.
• Do not use the Product if it operates incorrectly.
• Do not use test leads if they are damaged. Examine the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal.
Check test lead continuity.
Introduction
• Limit operation to the specified measurement category, voltage, or amperage ratings.
