WARNING
■
Do not use test leads or the multimeter if they are damaged
■
Do not use the multimeter if the tester is not operating properly
■
To reduce risk of fire and shock do not expose this product to rain or
any moisture
■
When using test leads or probes, keep fingers behind the finger guards.
■
Remove test leads from meter before opening the battery door or meter
case.
■
Use the meter only as specified in this manual or the protection by the
meter might be impaired.
■
Always use proper terminals, switch position, and range for measurements.
■
Never attempt a voltage measurement with the test lead inserted into the
A input terminal.
■
Verify the meter’s operation by measuring a known voltage. If in doubt,
have the meter serviced.
■
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on meter, between
terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
■
Do not attempt a current measurement when the open voltage is above the
fuse protection rating.
■
Suspected open circuit voltage can be checked with voltage function.
■
Only replace the blown fuse with the proper rating as specified in this
manual.
■
Use caution with voltages above 30 Vac rms, 42 Vac peak , or 60 Vdc.
These voltages pose a shock hazard.
■
To avoid false readings that can lead to electric shock and injury, replace
battery as soon as low battery indicator
appears.
■
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high voltage capacitors before
testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or capacitance.
■
Do not use meter around explosive gas or vapour.
