1000V.
Follow all safety instructions to ensure safe use and long
life of the instrument.
1.1 Preparation
1.1.1 When using the meter, follow all standard safety
guidelines:
- For universal protection again electric shock.
- To prevent the misuse of the instrument.
1.1.2 Check the meter for damage during transit.
1.1.3 Test leads must be in good condition.Check the
insulation and tips before use.
1.1.4 Safety can only be guaranteed with leads provided.
If leads need to be replaced, they must be replaced
with leads of same electrical specifications.
1.2 Using the Meter
1.2.1 Always set the meter to the proper function and
range first.
1.2.2 Never exceed protection limits indicated for each
measurement.
1.2.3 Keep fingers behind the probe barriers while
measuring.
1.2.4 Always be careful when working with voltages
above 60V DC or 30V AC RMS.
1.2.5 Never measure voltages that might exceed 600V
DC/AC above earth ground.
1.2.6 In manual range, if the circuit value is unknown,
start the meter at the maximum range and then
adjust accordingly.
1.2.7 Remove the leads from the circuit first before
switching between functions.
1.2.8 Do not power on circuit while measuring resistance,
capacitance, diodes and continuity.
1.2.9 Never connect the meter’s leads across a voltage
source while the rotary switch is in the resistance,
capacitance, diode or continuity mode.
1.2.10 Do not measure capacitance before capacitors
are discharged.
1.2.11 Do not operate the meter near explosive gas,
vapor or dust.
1.2.12 Stop using the meter if any abnormality is observed.
1.2.13 Do not use the meter unless the battery cover is
securely fastened to the meter.
1.2.14 Avoid direct exposure to sunlight to ensure
extended life of the meter.
