WARNING
To avoid possible electric shock, personal injury or death, follow these
guidelines:
• Do not use if meter appears damaged. Visually inspect the meter to ensure case
and jaws are not cracked.
• Inspect and replace test leads if insulation is damaged, metal is exposed, or
probes are cracked. Pay particular attention to the insulation surrounding the
connectors.
• To preserve the safety rating of this product, use only test leads with a minimum
rating of CAT III 600V. Do not use improvised connections that could present a safety
hazard.
• Note that the measurement category and voltage rating of combinations of
the meter, the test leads, and the accessories is the lowest of the individual
components.
• Do not use meter if it operates abnormally as protection may be impaired.
• Do not use during electrical storms or in wet weather.
• Do not use around explosive gas, dust, vapor or in damp or wet environments.
Do not submerge or expose the meter to water and do not use if the meter has
ever been exposed to water or other fluids.
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage or amperage.
• Remove the test leads from the input jacks before measuring current.
• Replace battery as soon as battery indicator appears to avoid false readings.
• Remove the test leads from the meter prior to removing battery cover.
• Do not use without the battery and battery cover properly installed.
• Do not attempt to repair this unit as it has no user-serviceable parts.
• Use the proper terminals, functions and range for your measurements.
• Never ground yourself when taking electrical measurements.
• Connect the black common lead to ground or neutral before applying the red test
lead to potential voltage. Disconnect the red test lead from the voltage first.
• Keep fingers behind the guard rings of the probe tips.
• Hold the clamp behind the tactile barrier.
• Voltages exceeding 30VAC or 60VDC pose a shock hazard so use caution.
• Remove batteries before storage or if unit will not be used for longer than 1
month.
