To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, and to
avoid possible damage to the Meter or to the equipment
under test, please adhere to the following rules:
•
Before using the Meter inspect the case. Do not
use the Meter if it is damaged or the case (or part
of the case) is removed. Look for cracks or missing
plastic. Pay attention to the insulation around the
connectors.
•
Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or
exposed metal. Check the test leads for continuity.
•
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as
marked on the meter, between the terminals or
between any terminal and grounding.
•
The rotary switch should be placed in the right
position and no changeover of range should be
made during measurements being conducted to
prevent damage of the Meter.
•
When the meter is working at an effective voltage
over 60V in DC or 30Vrms in AC, special care
should be taken due to danger of electric shock.
•
Use the proper terminals, function, and range for
your measurements.
•
Do not use or store the meter in an environment of
high temperature, humidity, explosive,
inflammable, and strong magnetic fields. The
performance of the meter may deteriorate after
being exposed to moisture.
•
When using the test leads always keep your
fingers behind the finger guards.
