3.2 Safety Terms Used In This Manual

WARNING: Identifies conditions and actions that could result in serious injury
or even death to the user.
CAUTION: Identifies conditions and actions that could cause damage or mal-
function in the instrument.

3.3 Warning and Caution Statements

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture.
The meter is intended only for indoor use.
To avoid electrical shock hazard, observe the proper safety precautions when working with
voltages above 60 V DC or 30 V AC rms. These voltage levels pose a potential shock haz-
ard to the user. Before and after hazardous voltage measurements, test the voltage func-
tion on a known source such as line voltage to determine proper meter functioning.
Keep hands/fingers behind the hand/finger barriers (of the meter and the test leads) during
measurement. Inspect test leads, connectors, and probes for damaged insulation or ex-
posed metal before using the instrument. If any defects are found, replace them immedi-
ately. Use only the test leads provided with the equipment (or UL Listed probe assemblies
rated CAT III 1000 V or better).
