•
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.
•
Disconnect power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before you
measure resistance, continuity, capacitance, or a diode junction.
•
Remove the input signals before you clean the Product.
•
Use only specified replacement parts.
•
When batteries are changed, ensure that the calibration seal in the battery
compartment is not damaged. If damaged, the Product may not be safe to use.
Return the Product to Fluke for replacement of the seal.
•
Do not use in CAT III or CAT IV environments without the protective cap of test
probe, The protective cap decreases the expose probe metal <4mm. This
decreases the possibility of arc flash from short circuits.
•
Do not place magnet inside Category IV panel. Place it outside the panel
instead.
For safe operation and maintenance of the Product:
•
Repair the Product before use if the battery leaks.
•
Have an approved technician repair the Product.
WCaution
To prevent possible damage to the Product or to equipment under test:
•
Use the correct terminals, function, and range for measurements.
•
Clean the case and accessories with a damp cloth and mild detergent only. Do
not use abrasives or solvents.
Note
The Measurement Category (CAT) and voltage rating of any combination of test probe,
