  • Page 3 2: SAFETY RULES & WARNINGS Read all instructions in this manual before using this meter. Failure to do so may result in damage to the meter or injury to the user. Prior to using the meter in any situation which could result in injury to the user, in order to verify that the meter is functional and producing a valid reading, test the meter on a circuit(s) known to have potentials equivalent to the...
  • Page 4 Follow the recommendations of any Trade Organizations or Regulatory Agencies whose scope encompasses the use of this meter. Failure to do so may result in damage to the meter or injury to the user. Do not open this meter for maintenance without first disconnecting the test leads from all external circuitry.
  • Page 5 precaution may result in damage to the meter or injury to the user. 2.10 Make sure test leads are properly inserted and seated in the meter’s input jacks. A loose test lead may cause the user to believe that no hazard exists, when in fact, dangerous voltages or currents may be present.
  • Page 6 2.14 Do not exceed the maximum voltage or current limitations of the meter (see product specifications). Doing so may damage the meter and/or injure the user. 2.15 Do not apply voltage or current to the input of the meter when it is set to any of the Ohms Ω ranges. Doing so may damage the meter and/or injure the user.
  • Page 7 2.20 Do not apply voltages to the input of the meter which are elevated above the earth ground potential by more than 600V AC/DC. Doing so may damage the meter and/or injure the user. 2.21 Do not continue to use meter when the “low battery” symbol is displayed.
  • Page 8 2.25 Do not use meter in condensing atmospheres. That is, do not use meter in conditions where ambient temperature and humidity could cause condensation of water inside of meter. Doing so may cause injury to the user. 2.26 Do not use the meter if either the meter or the test leads are wet, either from exposure to the weather, or after cleaning the case of the meter.
  • Page 9 inserted into a household AC wall outlet. 2.30 Do not touch the metallic portion of one test lead if the other test lead is connected to a live circuit. The current from the live circuit may pass through the meter and appear on the unconnected test lead.
  • Page 10 2.34 Do not use this meter to measure current in circuits whose open circuit voltage exceeds 250V AC/DC. The meter’s fuses are rated at 250V max. Failure to observe this precaution may result in damage to the meter or injury to the user. 2.35 When you use the meter to check a high-voltage circuit, do not try to connect both test leads at once.
  • Page 11 2.37 Do not use the meter if it does not appear to work correctly on all ranges and in all modes. Failure to observe this precaution may result in damage to the meter or injury to the user. 2.38 Do not use the meter if it has undergone long-term storage under unfavorable conditions.
  • Page 12 2.41 To avoid damage to the meter and possible user injury, disconnect test leads from test points before changing the function/range. Failure to observe this precaution may result in damage to the meter or injury to the user. 2.42 Avoid usage near strong magnetic fields (magnets, loudspeakers, transformers, motors, coils, relays, contactors, electromagnets, etc.).
  • Page 13 2.44 Avoid usage near strong RF fields (radio or television transmitters, walkie talkies, cellular phones, etc.). The meter may display readings that are in error, causing the user to misinterpret the hazards present. For example, the meter may indicate a low voltage when high voltages are actually present.
