1. Read these operating instructions thoroughly and
completely before operating your meter. Pay particular
attention to WARNINGS that will inform you of
potentially dangerous procedures. The instructions in
these warnings must be followed.
2. Always inspect your meter, test leads and accessories
for any sign of damage or abnormality before every use.
If any abnormal conditions exist (eg-broken test leads,
cracked cases, display not reading, etc.), do not attempt
to take any measurements.
3. Do not expose the instrument to direct sunlight, extreme
temperature or moisture.
4. Never ground yourself when taking electrical
measurements. Do not touch exposed metal pipes,
outlets, fixtures, etc., which might be at ground potential.
Keep your body isolated from ground by using dry
clothing, rubber shoes, rubber mats, or any approved
insulating material.
5. To avoid electric shock use CAUTION when working
with voltages above DC60V or AC30V rms. Such
voltages pose a shock hazard.
6. Never exceed the maximum allowable input value of any
function when taking a measurement. Refer to the
specifications for maximum inputs.
7. Never touch exposed wiring, connections or any live
circuit when attempting to take measurements.
8. Do not attempt to operate this instrument in an
explosive atmosphere (i.e. in the presence of flammable
gases or fumes, vapor or dust).
9. When testing for the presence of voltage, make sure the
voltage function is operating properly by reading a
known voltage in that function before assuming that a
zero reading indicates a no-voltage condition. Always
test your meter before and after taking measurements
on a known live circuit.
