Safety instructions
This meter has been designed for safe use, but must be
operated with caution. The rules listed below must be
carefully followed for safe operation.
NEVER apply voltage or current to the meter that
exceeds the specified maximum.
Use extreme caution when working with high voltages.
Do
not measure
voltage if the voltage on the ‘COM’ input
jack exceeds 1000 V above earth ground.
Never connect the meter leads across a voltage source
while the function switch is in the current, resistance, or
diode mode. Doing so can damage the meter.
Always
discharge
filter capacitors in power supplies and
disconnect the power when making resistance or diode
tests.
Always
turn off
the power and
disconnect
the test leads
before opening the covers to replace the fuse or batteries.
Never operate the meter unless the back cover and the
battery and fuse covers are in place and fastened securely.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the
manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment
may be impaired.
