Safety Information
Understand and follow operating instructions carefully.
WARNING
•
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by
the equipment may be impaired.
•
Always use proper terminals, switch position, and range for measurements.
•
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this product around explosive gas or in damp
locations.
•
Verify the Meter operation by measuring a known voltage. If in doubt, have the Meter serviced.
•
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on Meter, between terminals or between any
terminal and earth ground.
•
Avoid working alone so assistance can be rendered.
•
Do not use the Tester if the Tester is not operating properly or if it is wet.
•
Individual protective device must be used if hazardous live parts in the installation where the
measurement is to be carried out could be accessible.
•
Use caution with voltages above 30 VAC rms, 42 VAC peak, or 60 VDC. These voltages pose a
shock hazard.
•
DO NOT USE the test leads when the internal white insulation layer is exposed.
•
DO NOT USE the test leads above maximum ratings of CAT. Environment, voltage and current,
that are indicated on the probe and the probe tip guard cap.
•
DO NOT USE the test leads without the probe tip guard cap in CAT III and CAT IV environments.
•
Probe assemblies to be used for MAINS measurements shall be RATED as appropriate for
MEASUREMENT CATEGORY III or IV according to IEC 61010-031 and shall have a voltage
RATING of at least the voltage of the circuit to be measured.
•
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance,
continuity.
