CAUTION

- Before you start 

This is a sophisticated unit which will be an important tool in your 
electric powered model program. Please be careful with it! And please 
read this instruction manual thoroughly before operating.

There are risks associated with the potentially high currents measured 
by the i-Meter. These include, but are not limited to, fire, burns and 
personal injury. The user must be familiar with the relevant methods, 
procedures and connection components before using or making any 
connection.

High power electrical systems pose dangers independent of devices 
like the i-Meter and it is the user's responsibility to be familiar with these 
dangers and take any necessary action to ensure safe use. Shorting a 
rechargeable battery or a i-Meter connected to a rechargeable battery 
or battery charger can supply huge currents and have serious 
consequences including explosions, causing fire, damage to equipment 
and personal injury.

Do not exceed a maximum of 60 volts for the main power pack (MPP)

Keep proper distance from propeller during measurement process. 

Keep the i-Meter well away from dirt or water. 

Do not disassemble, modify or subject the unit to force impact.
