• Check the test leads for continuity. Replace damaged test leads before

using the Meter.

• Have the Meter serviced only by qualified service personnel.

• Use extreme caution when working around bare conductors or bus

bars. Contact with the conductor could result in electric shock.

• Do not hold the Meter anywhere beyond the tactile barrier.

• When measuring current, center the conductor in the clamp.

• Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter,

between the terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.

• Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the Meter case or

battery cover.

• Never operate the Meter with the battery cover removed or the case

open.

• Never remove the battery cover or open the case of the Meter without

first removing the test leads or the jaws from a live conductor.

• Use caution when working with voltages above 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac

peak, or 60 V dc. These voltages pose a shock hazard.

• Do not attempt to measure any voltage that might exceed the

maximum range of the Meter.

• Use the proper terminals, function, and range for your measurements.

• Do not operate the Meter around explosive gas, vapor, or dust.

• When using probes, keep fingers behind the finger guards.

• When making electrical connections, connect the common test lead

before connecting the live test lead; when disconnecting, disconnect

the live test lead before disconnecting the common test lead.

• Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors

before testing resistance, continuity, or diodes.

• Use only 1.5V AA batteries, properly installed in the Meter case, to

power the Meter.

• To avoid false readings that can lead to electrical shock and injury,

replace the battery as soon as the low battery indicator (

Check Meter operation on a known source before and after use.

• When servicing, use only specified replacement parts.

• Adhere to local and national safety codes. Individual protective

equipment must be used to prevent shock and arc blast injury where

hazardous live conductors are exposed.

• Do not use the Meter if the wear indicator in the jaw opening is not

visible.

• Only use the test lead provided with the Meter or UL Listed Probe

Assembly rated CAT III 1000 V or better.
