1.1 Do not operate the meter if the body of meter or the test lead 

look broken. 

1.2 Check the main function dial and make sure it is at the correct 

position before each measurement. 

1.3  Do  not  perform  resistance,  capacitance,  temperature,  diode 

and continuity test on a live power system. 

1.4  Do  not  apply  voltage  between  the  test  terminals  and  test 

terminal  to  ground  that  exceed  the  maximum  limit  record  in  this 

manual. 

1.5  Exercise  extreme  caution  when  measuring  live  system  with 

voltage greater than 60V DC or 30V AC. 

1.6  Keep  the  fingers  after  the  protection  ring  when  measuring 

through the clamp. 

1.7  Change  the  battery 

when  the  “

”  symbol  appears  to  avoid 

incorrect data. 

1.8  Use  the  DMM  indoor,  altitude  up  to  2000m  and  temperature 

5

°C to 40°C. 

Maximum relative humidity 80% for temperatures up to 

31

°C, decreasing linearly to 50% relative humidity at 40°C. 

1.9 

In locations subject to radio frequency interference, the product 

may  malfunction  and  it  resets  automatically  when  leaving  this 

environment.
