2.2 Precautions
• To avoid electrical shock or personal injury, observe
and follow all safety precautions
• Check the meter for damage before use. Do not use if
any damage is observed.
• Check the test leads for cracks or exposed wires before
using the meter. Replace if necessary.
• Ensure the meter works properly by testing a known
voltage source first.If not working properly, the
protective equipment may be damaged; have the meter
serviced before using.
• Never measure voltages that may exceed the protection
limit indicated on the meter.
• Always be careful when working with voltages above
60V dc or 30V ac rms. Keep fingers behind the probe
barriers when making voltage measurements.
• Make sure the test leads are in the correct input jacks
before measurement.
• Do not expose the meter to explosive gas, dust or vapor.
• When connecting the test leads to a measurement
circuit, connect the common lead first, then the live lead.
Reverse when disconnecting.
• Turn off power to circuit and discharge all capacitors
before making resistance, continuity or diode
measurements.
• In order to avoid incorrect DC voltage readings, check
the circuit for AC voltage first, then put the meter in the
appropriate DC voltage range.
• Turn off circuit power and check fused before connect
the leads when measuring current.Turn circuit power
on after making connection.
• Never use the meter unless the back cover is in place
and fastened securely.
• When the low battery indicator“ ”is displayed, replace
the battery.The accuracy of the meter cannot be
guaranteed while the low battery indicator is on.
• Before opening the case, always disconnect test leads
from all energized circuits.
• For continued protection against fire, replace fuse only
with the specified voltage and current ratings listed in
the manual.
