Use Product-approved measurement category
•
(CAT), voltage, and amperage rated
accessories (probes, test leads, and adapters)
for all measurements.
Measure a known voltage first to make sure
•
that the Product operates correctly.
Use the correct terminals, function, and range
•
for measurements.
Do not touch voltages > 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac
•
peak, or 60 V dc.
Do not use the Product around explosive gas,
•
vapor, or in damp or wet environments.
Do not use the Product if it operates
•
incorrectly.
Examine the case before you use the Product.
•
