XWWarning
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, follow these
guidelines:
• Use this Meter only as specified in this manual or the
protection provided by the Meter might be impaired.
• Do not use the Meter if it is damaged. Before you use the
Meter, inspect the case. Look for cracks or missing plastic.
Pay particular attention to the insulation surrounding the
connectors.
• Make sure the battery door is closed and latched before
operating the Meter.
• Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the
battery door.
• Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed
metal. Check the test leads for continuity. Replace damaged
test leads before using the Meter.
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the
Meter, between the terminals or between any terminal and
earth ground.
• Never operate the Meter with the cover removed or the case
open.
• Use caution when working with voltages above 30 V ac rms,
42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc. These voltages pose a shock
hazard.
• Use only the replacement fuses specified by the manual.
• Use the proper terminals, function, and range for
