SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This meter has been designed for safe use, but must be
operated with caution. The rules listed below must be
carefully followed for safe operation.
1.
NEVER
apply voltage or current to the meter that
exceeds the specified maximum:
Input Limits
Function
Maximum Input
VAC
600V DC/AC
V DC or V
AC
600V
DC/AC,
200Vrms
on
200mV range
mA DC
200mA 250V fast acting fuse
A DC
10A 250V fast acting fuse
(30 seconds max every 15
minutes)
Resistance,
Continuity
250Vrms for 15sec max
2.
USE EXTREME CAUTION
when working with high
voltages.
3.
DO NOT
measure voltage if the voltage on the "COM"
input jack exceeds 500V above earth ground.
4.
NEVER
connect the meter leads across a voltage
source while the function switch is in the current,
resistance, or diode mode. Doing so can damage the
meter.
5.
ALWAYS
discharge filter capacitors in power supplies
and disconnect the power when making resistance or
diode tests.
