Unpacking And Inspection - Amprobe 38XR-A User Manual

• Do not exceed the maximum overload limits per
function (see specifications) nor the limits marked on the
instrument itself. Never apply more than 1000V dc/750 V
ac rms between the test lead and earth ground.
• Inspect the DMM, test leads and accessories before
every use. Do not use any damaged part.
• Never ground yourself when taking measurements. Do
not touch exposed circuit elements or test probe tips.
• Do not operate the instrument in an explosive
atmosphere.
• Exercise extreme caution when: measuring voltage
>20V // current >10mA // AC power line with
inductive loads // AC power line during electrical
storms // current, when the fuse blows in a circuit
with open circuit voltage >1000 V // servicing CRT
equipment.
• Always measure current in series with the load –
NEVER ACROSS a voltage source. Check fuse first.
Never replace a fuse with one of a different rating.
• Remove test leads before opening the Battery Cover
or case.
