Thank you for purchasing 

"KT-2022 AUTOMOTIVE DIGITAL MULTIMETER"

. To obtain the maximum 

performance of this instrument, read this Instruction Manual carefully, and take safe measurement.

2. SPECIFICATIONS

Do not measure High Power Line (High Energy Circuits) that might exceed 6kVA. High 

Power Line is very dangerous and sometimes includes High Surge Voltage that could 

cause explosive short in the instrument and could result in serious injury to the operator. For 

dangerous voltage measurement, always keep the instrument away from your body without 

holding it in your hands.  Do not touch the instrument, test leads, and any part of the circuit.

WARNING

FOR SAFETY MEASUREMENTS!!

The symbol listed in IEC 61010-1 and ISO 3864 means "Caution (refer to 

instruction manual)".

WARNING

CAUTION

The symbol in this manual advises the user of an electrical shock 

hazard that could result in serious injury or even death.

      WARNING 1. Checks of Body and Test Lead

      WARNING 3. Warning for High Voltage Measurements

      WARNING 4. Dangerous Voltage Measurement Procedure

      WARNING 2. High Power Line Measurements is Prohibited  

Before measurement, confirm the body of this instrument and handle insulators of the Test 

Lead have no cracks or any other damages. Dust, grease and moisture must be removed.

Do not hold multimeter in your hands. Keep safety distance from power source or circuit 

to be measured not to touch the dangerous voltage.

Attach black and red alligator clips to test lead pins.

Turn off the power of the circuit to be measured when connecting test leads.

After measurement, before detaching alligator clips (test leads), turn the circuit power off 

and discharge the all capacitors.



For dangerous voltage measurement, strictly observe the warnings below.

3-1. WARNINGS

Correct knowledge of electric measurements is essential to avoid unexpected danger such 

as operator's injury or damage to the instrument. Read carefully and observe the following 

precautions for safety measurements.

3. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Even for Low Energy Circuits of electric/electronic appliances, such as heating elements, 

small motors, line cords and plugs, High Voltage Measurements are very dangerous. Do not 

touch any part of the circuit. 

Do not measure High Power Line (High Energy Circuits) such as Distribution Transformers, 

Bus Bars and Large Motors. High Power Line sometimes includes High Surge Voltage that 

could cause explosive short in the instrument and could result in shock hazard. Generally, 

shock hazard could occur when the current between the circuit, that involves more than 33V 

rms or 46.7V DC or peak, and ground goes up to 0.5mA or more.

      WARNING 1. Correct Selection of Function Switch

      WARNING 2. Maximum Input Observance

      WARNING 3. Test Lead Detachment

Do not measure anything that might exceed the specified maximum input values.

Always confirm that 

FUNCTION

 Switch is set to the correct position. Do not measure voltage 

except at Voltage measurement function.

Detach test leads from measuring circuit before changing measurement functions or 

removing rear cover for battery or fuse replacement.

In case of live-line measurement, strictly observe the warnings below 

Do not hold multimeter in your hands. Keep safety distance from power source or circuit 

to be measured not to touch the dangerous voltage.

Black test lead : Attach black alligator clip and connect to 

 (earth) side of the circuit.

Red test lead : Connect to 

 (positive) side of the circuit.


3-3. GENERAL WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

Children and the persons who do not have enough knowledge about 

electric measurements must not use this instrument.

Do not measure the electricity naked or barefooted to protect yourself 

from electrical shock hazard.

Be careful not to get hurt with the sharp test lead pins.

Do not polish the case or attempt to clean it with any cleaning fluid like 

gasoline or benzine. If necessary, use silicon oil or antistatic fluid.

Away the instrument from hot and humid conditions like in the car. Do not 

apply hard mechanical shock or vibration.

Remove the battery when the instrument is out of use for a long time. The 

exhausted battery might leak electrolyte and corrode the inside.
