WArNiNG!
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, follow these guidelines:
8
dO NOt
use the meter if it is damaged. Before you use the meter, inspect the case. Pay particular attention to the insulation
surrounding the connectors.
9
Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check the test leads for continuity. Replace damaged test leads
before using the meter.
8
dO NOt
use the meter if it operates abnormally. Protection may be impaired. When in doubt, have the meter serviced.
8
dO NOt
operate the meter around explosive gas, vapour, or dust. don’t use it under wet conditions.
8
dO NOt
apply more than the rated voltage, marked on the meter, between terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
9
Before use, verify the meter’s operation by measuring a known voltage.
9
Use caution when working with voltage above 30V ac rms, 42V peak, or 60V dc. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.
9
When using the probes, keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.
9
Connect the common test lead before you connect the live test lead. When you disconnect test leads, disconnect the live test lead first.
9
Remove the test leads from the meter and remove the clamp jaws from the conductor under test before opening the case or the
battery cover.
8
dO NOt
operate with the battery cover or portions of the case removed or loosened.
9
To avoid false readings,which could lead to possible, electric shock or personal Injury, replace the batteries as soon as the low battery
indicator appears.
9
To avoid electric shock,
dO NOt
touch any naked conductor with hand or skin.
8
dO NOt
hold the meter anywhere beyond the finger guard.
9
Adhere to local and national safety codes. Individual protective equipment must be used to prevent shock and arc blast injury where
hazardous live conductors are exposed.
8
dO NOt
use the test leads with other equipment.
WArNiNG:
When an input terminal is connected to dangerous live potential, this potential can occur at all other terminals!
CAt ill - measurement
(Category Ill is for measurements performed in building installation.)
examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit breakers, wiring, including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches,
socket-outlets in the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial use and some other equipment, for example, stationary motors with
permanent connection to fixed installation.
8
dO NOt
use the meter for measurements within measurement Categories IV.
WArNiNG!
To avoid possible damage to the meter or to the equipment under test, follow these guidelines:
9
disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before testing resistance, diode and continuity.
9
Use the proper function and range for your measurements.
9
Before rotating the function switch to change functions, remove test leads from the circuit under test and remove the jaws from the
clamped conductor.
