• Always discharge any capacitors of the
circuit under test before you attach test
leads.
• Always turn off power and disconnect the
test leads from the circuit before repla-
cing the meter’s batteries or the fuse.
• Never operate the meter unless its
back cover and battery cover are fully
closed and the screws fully tightened.
• Because many AC/DC sets have a
potentially hot chassis, be sure the top
of your workbench and the floor
underneath it are made of non-
conductive materials.
This meter is fully calibrated and tested.
Under normal use, no further adjustment
should be necessary. If the meter requires
repair, do not try to adjust it yourself. Take it
to your local RadioShack store.
