WARNING
Do not allow the instrument to get wet, and do
not take measurements with wet hands. This
may cause an electric shock.
To avoid electric shock when measuring live
lines, wear appropriate protective gear, such as
insulated rubber gloves, boots and a safety
helmet.
During current measurement, to avoid an
electric shock accident, do not connect the test
leads or temperature probe to the instrument.
Input voltage exceeding 600 Vrms (1000 V max.)
with respect to ground could damage the
instrument and result in personal injury.
Be sure to insert them with the correct polarity.
Otherwise, poor performance or damage from
battery leakage could result.
To avoid electric shock when replacing the
battery, first disconnect the clamp from the
object to be measured.
After replacing the battery, replace the cover
and screws before using the instrument.
To avoid the possibility of explosion, do not
short circuit, disassemble or incinerate
batteries.
Handle and dispose of batteries in accordance
with local regulations.
