i. Measuring Frequency
WARNING!
Never attempt a frequency measurement with a
voltage source greater than 600V. Determine the
voltage of any unknown frequency source before
connecting the instrument in frequency mode.

h. Measuring Capacitance
WARNING!
All capacitance measurements are to be made
on de-energized circuits with all capacitors
discharged only. Failure to de-energize and dis-
charge capacitors before attempting to measure
them could result in instrument damage and/or
personal injury.
