IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read these instructions carefully before use and retain for future reference.
•
Check the test leads, probes and case insulation before using. If you find any
breakage or abnormality, or you consider the device is broken, stop using the
device immediately.
•
When using the test probes, keep your fingers behind the finger protection
ring.
• Do not use the meter with the back cover open.
• Select appropriate test range for measurements.
• Ensure all inputs are less than the range selected otherwise it may cause
electrical shock or meter damage.
• Do not change the range selector position during voltage or current
measurements.
• Do not apply a voltage exceeding the marked voltage between COM terminal
and ground.
• Take caution when working voltages are above 60V DC or 30V AC rms.
• Do not connect the meter to voltage signals when the range selector is on
current, resistance, diode or continuity range.
• When measuring current, each single measurement should be shorter than 10
seconds.
• When a measurement has been completed, disconnect the testing probes
from the circuit under test.
• Replace the batteries as soon as the low battery indicator appears on the
display.
• Remove dead batteries from the meter or if it is not going to be used for a long
time.
• Never mix old and new batteries together, or different types of batteries.
•
Never dispose of batteries in a fire, or attempt to recharge ordinary batteries.
• Before replacing the battery, turn off the meter and disconnect all the test
probes.
• To prolong battery life turn off the meter after use.
