    5. Operation NOTES: Read and understand all WARNING and CAUTION statements in this operation manual prior to using this meter. Set the function select switch to the OFF position when the meter is not in use. 5.1. AC Current Measurements WARNING: Ensure that the test leads are disconnected from the meter before making current clamp measurements.

    5.3. Low Z Voltage Measurements NOTES: Observe all safety precautions when working on live voltages. Do not connect to circuits that exceed 600V AC/DC when the meter is set to Low Z. Low Z is used when there is a suspicion of a "ghost" voltage. Ghost voltages are present when non-powered wires are in close proximity to wires powered by AC voltage.
