SAFETY WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
1.
Electrical shock can cause death or injury! NEVER TOUCH exposed conductors of
electricity.
2.
Test cable voltages with care. One use one hand when securing the clamp around
cable.
3.
Inspect the Meter before use. In addition to a general inspection, look specifically
for:
a. Pay special attention to the insulation protecting the connectors.
b. Check the leads for exposed metal, damaged insulation, and continuity.
c. Replace damaged test lead immediately, before use.
4.
Do not use the Multimeter if:
a. Either of the test leads are damaged in any way.
b. Test leads are dirty or have residue on them.
c. The battery is low.
d. Near any explosive gases or fumes.
e. Any abnormal operation is detected.
(If in doubt about the condition of the Meter, have it serviced before use.)
f. The battery cover is open.
7.
Power this Meter using only the battery(ies) referenced in the Specifications Chart.
8.
Use caution when working near voltages above 30 VAC rms, 42 VAC peak, or
60 VDC. Voltages this high present a risk of electric shock.
9.
Disconnect the circuit's power before connecting the Meter in series, when
measuring current.
10. Connect the common (COM) test lead first and disconnect it last.
11. Hold the probes with fingers behind guards.
12. Avoid electrical shock. Use extreme caution when working near uninsulated
conductors or bus bars. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and cabinet enclosures when testing voltages.
13. Observe work area conditions. Do not test voltages in damp or wet locations. Don't
expose to rain. Keep work area clean and well lit.
14. Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area.
