Rules For Safe Operation

Warning
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, and to avoid possible damage
to the Meter or to the equipment under test, adhere to the following rules:
Before using the Meter inspect the case. Do not use the Meter if it is damaged
l
or the case (or part of the case) is removed. Look for cracks or missing plastic.
Pay attention to the insulation around the connectors.
Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check the test
l
leads for continuity. Replace damaged test leads with identical model number
or electrical specifications before using the Meter.
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter, between the
l
terminals or between any terminal and grounding. If the value to be measured
is unknown, use the maximum measurement position and reduce the range step
by step until a satisfactory reading is obtained.
When measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection between
l
the test leads and the circuit under test, remove the testing leads away from the
input terminals of the Meter and turn the Meter power off.
