1. Safety Information
This meter has met IEC61010-1 and IEC-61010-2-032
standards with an overvoltage category of 600V CAT III
and a pollution degree of 2. Follow safe operation
procedures to ensure the long life and safe use of this
instrument.
WARNING
1.1 Preparation
1.1.1 When using the meter, follow the following
safety rules:
-Take precautions to prevent electrical shock
-Do not misuse the instrument
1.1.2 Check the meter and accessories thoroughly
before using.
1.1.3 Check to see if the meter or any components
were damaged during shipment.
1.1.4 Inspect test leads and probes for cracks, breaks
or crazes on the insulation before using the meter.
1.1.5 Use test leads provided with the unit. If
necessary, replace test leads with identical
specifications.
1.2 Usage
1.2.1 Turn the rotary switch to the required function
and range to be measured.
1.2.2 Never use the meter to measure voltages that
might exceed 600V DC/AC above earth ground.
1.2.3 Always be careful when working with voltages
above 60V DC or 30V AC RMS. Keep fingers
behind the probe barriers while measuring.
1.2.4 The “ ” symbol next to the input lead shows
that the input voltage or current should not
exceed the specified value in order to protect the
internal circuit from damage.
1.2.5 Choose the highest range when the value to be
measured is unknown.
1.2.6 Remove test leads before switching functions on
the rotary switch.
1.2.7 Do not perform resistance, capacitance, diode
and continuity measurements on powered circuits.
1.2.8 Never connect the test leads across a voltage
source while the rotary switch is in the resistance,
diode or continuity mode. Doing so can damage
the meter.
1.2.9 Power off the circuit and discharge capacitors
before testing capacitance.
1.2.10 Do not place the meter in any environment with
high pressure, high temperature, dust, explosive
gas or vapor.
1.2.11 Stop using the meter if any failure or abnormal
function is observed.
1.2.12 Do not use meter unless battery cover is in place
a secured.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL
SHOCK, PRODUCT DAMAGE OR PERSONAL
INJURY, PLEASE FOLLOW THE SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS DESCRIBED IN THE USER
MANUAL. READ THE USER MANUALS
BEFORE USING THE METER.
