CAUTION!
To avoid possible damage to the meter or to the equipment under test, follow these guidelines:
1. Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before measuring resistance or continuity.
2. Select the proper function and range for your measurement.
3. Before measuring current, turn off the power to the circuit before connecting the meter to the circuit.
4. Before rotating the function switch to change functions, disconnect the test lead and test probe from the circuit
under test.
5. Remove the test lead and test probe from the meter before opening the battery cover or the case.
6. When finished measuring, switch off the power. Be sure to remove the battery when storing for long periods to
avoid leakage problems.
7. Do not use or store this instrument in a place of direct sunlight, high temperature and high humidity.
