TERMS IN THIS MANUAL
WARNING
Identifies conditions & actions that could
result in serious injury or even death to
the user.
CAUTION
Identifies conditions & actions that could
cause damage or malfunction in the
instrument.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
expose this product to rain or moisture. The meter is
intended only for indoor use.
To avoid electrical shock hazard, observe the proper
safety precautions when working with voltages above
60 VDC or 30 VAC rms. These voltage levels pose a
potential shock hazard to the user. Before and after
hazardous voltage measurements, test the voltage
function on a known source such as line voltage to
determine proper meter functioning.
Keep your hands/fingers behind the hand / finger
barriers (of the meter and the test leads) that
indicate the limits of safe access of the hand held
part during measurement. Inspect test leads,
connectors, and probes for damaged insulation or
exposed metal before using the instrument.

If any defects are found, replace them immediately.
Only use the test lead provided with the equipment
or UL Listed Probe Assembly.
This Clamp-on meter is designed to apply around
or remove from uninsulated hazardous live
conductors. But still, individual protective equip-
ment must be used if hazardous live parts in the
insulation where measurement is to be carried out
could be accessible.
Disconnect the test leads from the test points
before changing meter functions.
