• When the RED indicator lights, lethal voltage (  3000 V dc/pulse) may appear at
measurement terminals.
• Usually use the interlock function.
• Do not operate the instrument unless another person is around the work space who is
familiar with instrument operation and hazards or administering first aid.
• Potentials less than  500 V may cause death under certain conditions. Therefore,
adequate preventive measures must be taken at all times!
FIRST AID FOR ELECTRIC SHOCK
SPECIAL ATTENTION TO RESCUE IN SAFETY
• Never rush into an accidental situation.
• Take special attention to the following notices to prevent second accident.
• Do NOT touch the CASUALTY or conductive surface with your hands unprotected.
• Shut off high voltage at once.
• Disconnect AC mains.
• If it is unsure to make safe, the following procedure will helps to protect your lives
during the CASUALTY is rescued.
• Stand on a dry insulating material; use a dry wooden or plastic implement to free
the CASUALTY from contact with hazardous electrical source.
• Ground the circuit to de-energize.
