Limit operation to the specified measurement category,
voltage, or amperage ratings.
Do not touch voltages >30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or
60 V dc.
Do not exceed the Measurement Category (CAT) rating of
the lowest rated individual component of a Product,
probe, or accessory.
Do not use the Product around explosive gas, vapor, or in
damp or wet environments.
Use only correct measurement category (CAT), voltage,
and amperage rated probes, test leads, and adapters for
the measurement.
Do not use the HOLD function to measure unknown
potentials. When HOLD is turned on, the display does not
change when a different potential is measured.
Do not work alone.
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, between the
terminals or between each terminal and earth ground.
Comply with local and national safety codes. Use personal
protective equipment (approved rubber gloves, face
protection, and flame-resistant clothes) to prevent shock
and arc blast injury where hazardous live conductors are
exposed.
Replace the batteries when the low battery indicator
shows to prevent incorrect measurements.
Keep fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.
