A Caution identifies conditions and procedures that can cause damage to the
Product or the equipment under test.
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury:
• Carefully read all instructions.
• Use the Product only as specified, or the protection
supplied by the Product can be compromised.
• 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 use the Product around explosive gas, vapor, or in
damp or wet environments.
• Do not use the Product if it is damaged.
• Disable the Product if it is damaged.
• Do not use the Product if it operates incorrectly.
• The battery door must be closed and locked before you
operate the Product.
• Replace the batteries when the low battery indicator shows
to prevent incorrect measurements.
• Have an approved technician repair the Product.
• Use only specified replacement parts.
• Do not exceed the Measurement Category (CAT) rating of
the lowest rated individual component of a Product, probe,
or accessory.
• Measure a known voltage first to make sure that the
Product operates correctly.
• Do not work alone.
• 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.
• Examine the case before you use the Product. Look for
cracks or missing plastic. Carefully look at the insulation
around the terminals.
• Use only correct measurement category (CAT), voltage,
and amperage rated probes, test leads, and adapters for
the measurement.
• Do not use test leads if they are damaged. Examine the test
leads for damaged insulation, exposed metal, or if the wear
indicator shows. Check test lead continuity.
• Keep fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.
