• Do not use the Meter if it appears damaged. Inspect
the Meter before use. Look for cracks or missing
plastic. Pay particular attention to the insulation
around the connectors.
• Have the Meter serviced only by qualified service
personnel.
• Use extreme caution when working around bare
conductors or bus bars. Contact with the conductor
could result in electric shock.
• Do not hold the Meter anywhere beyond the tactile
barrier.
• When measuring current, center the conductor in the
clamp.
• Never operate the Meter with the battery cover
removed or the case open.
• Never remove the battery cover or open the case of
the Meter without first removing the jaws from a live
conductor.
• Use caution when working with voltages above 30 V
AC rms, 42 V AC peak, or 60 V DC. These voltages pose
a shock hazard.
• Do not attempt to measure any voltage that might
exceed the maximum range of the Meter.
• Use the proper function for your measurements.
• Do not operate the Meter around explosive gas,
vapor, or dust.
• Use only 1.5 V LR44 batteries, properly installed in the
Meter case, to power the Meter.
• To avoid false readings that can lead to electrical
shock and injury, replace the battery as soon as the
low battery indicator ( ) appears. Check Meter
operation on a known source before and after use.
• When servicing, use only specified replacement parts.
• Adhere to local and national safety codes. Individual
protective equipment must be used to prevent shock
and arc blast injury where hazardous live conductors
are exposed.
