Safety Information
To ensure safe operation and service of the Tester, follow
these instructions. Failure to observe warnings can result in
severe injury or death.
• Individual protective equipment should be used if
HAZARDOUS LIVE parts in the installation where measure
ment is to be carried out could be ACCESSIBLE.
• If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the
manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may
be impaired.
• Always use proper terminals, switch position, and range for
measurements.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this
product to rain or moisture.
• Verify the Meter 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.
• To avoid false readings that can lead to electric shock and
injury, replace battery as soon as low battery indicator.
• Do not use Meter around explosive gas or vapor.
• 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 caution with voltages above 30 Vac rms, 42 Vac peak, or
60 Vdc. These voltages pose a shock hazard.
• Probe assemblies to be used for MAINS measurements shall
be RATED as appropriate for MEASUREMENT
CATEGORY III or IV according to IEC 61010-031 and shall
have a voltage RATING of at least the voltage of the circuit to
be measured.
• Do not expose Meter to extremes in temperature of high
humidity.
