BATTERY AND FUSE REPLACEMENT WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from any source of voltage before removing the battery cover. 1. Turn power off and disconnect the test leads from the meter. 2. Open the rear battery/fuse compartment by removing the Phillips head screw on the lower rear of the meter.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: Risk of electrocution. High-voltage circuits, both AC and DC, are extremely dangerous and should be measured with great care. 1. ALWAYS turn the function switch to the OFF position when the meter is not in use. 2. If “OL” appears in the display during a measurement, the value exceeds the range you have selected.
AC/DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS CAUTION: Do not measure DC voltages if a motor on the circuit is being switched ON or OFF. Large voltage surges may occur that can damage the meter. 1. Rotate the function switch to the V or V position.
CONTINUITY CHECK WARNING: To avoid electric shock, never measure continuity on circuits or wires that have a voltage potential. 1. Rotate the function switch to the position. 2. Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative COM jack. Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive jack.
NON-CONTACT INFRARED TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS Rotate the function switch to the IR position. The upper right four digit temperature display will switch on. Press the MODE button to select °F or °C. Aim the infrared sensor (top of meter) at the surface to be measured. Press and Hold the IRT button to turn on the IR thermometer and laser pointer.
MAINTENANCE WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from any source of voltage before removing the back cover or the battery cover. WARNING: To avoid electric shock, do not operate your meter until the battery cover is in place and fastened securely.
