CARE AND MAINTENANCE  

Your RadioShack Clamp-On AC Ammeter Probe is an ex-
ample of superior design and craftsmanship. The following
suggestions will help you care for your probe so you can enjoy
it for years.

Keep the probe dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry im-
mediately. Liquids might contain minerals that
can corrode the electronic circuits.

Use and store the probe only in normal tempera-
ture environments. Temperature extremes can
shorten the life of electronic devices and distort
or melt plastic parts.

Keep the probe away from dust and dirt, which
can cause premature wear of parts.

Handle the probe gently and carefully. Dropping
it can damage circuit boards and cases and can
cause the probe to work improperly.

Wipe the probe with a damp cloth occasionally
to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemi-
cals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
clean the probe.

Modifying or tampering with the probe’s internal components
can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty. If
your probe is not performing as it should, take it to your local
RadioShack store for assistance.
