" :
˙
When using test leads or probes, keep your fingers behind
the finger guards.
˙
Remove test lead from Meter before opening the battery
door or Meter case.
˙
Use the Meter only as specified in this manual or the
protection by the Meter might be impaired.
˙
Always use proper terminals, switch position, and range for
measurements.
˙
Never attempt a voltage measurement with the test lead
inserted into the A input terminal.
˙
Verify the Meter’s operation by measuring a known voltage.
If in doubt, have the Meter serviced.
˙
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked
on
Meter, between terminals or between any terminal and earth
ground.
˙
Do not attempt a current measurement when the open
voltage is above the fuse protection rating. Suspected
open circuit voltage can be checked with voltage function.
˙
Only replace the blown fuse with the proper rating as
specified in this manual.
˙
Use caution with voltages above 30 Vac rms, 42 Vac peak,
or 60 Vdc. These voltages pose a shock hazard.
˙
To avoid false readings that can lead to electric shock and
injury, replace battery as soon as low battery indicator
<
appears.
˙
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage
capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes,
or capacitance.
˙
Do not use Meter around explosive gas or vapor.
˙
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock do not expose
this product to rain or moisture.
