    DM-45 Important Safety Information SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL This symbol is used to call your attention to hazards or unsafe practices which could result in an injury or property damage. The signal word, defined below, indicates the severity of the hazard.
  • Page 4 Important Safety Information Electric shock and fire hazard: • Do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. • Do not use the unit if it is wet or damaged. • Use test leads or accessories that are appropriate for the application. Refer to the category and voltage rating of the test lead or accessory.
  • Page 5 DM-45 Important Safety Information Electric shock hazard: The fuses are an integral part of the overvoltage protection. When fuse replacement is necessary, refer to “Specifications” for the correct type, size, and capacity. Using any other type of fuse will void the overvoltage protection rating of the unit.
