• When measuring current, center the conductor in the clamp.
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter, between the terminals or between any terminal
and earth ground.
• Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the Meter case.
• Never operate the Meter with the back cover removed or the case open.
• Never remove the back cover or open the case of an instrument without first removing the test leads or the jaws
from a live conductor.
• 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.
• Do not attempt to measure any voltage that might exceed the maximum range of the Meter- 600 V RMS and 1 kHz.
• Do not operate the Meter around explosive gas, vapor, or dust.
• When using probes, keep fingers behind the finger guards.
• When making electrical connections, connect the common test lead before connecting the live test lead; when
disconnecting, disconnect the live test lead before disconnecting the common test lead.
• Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, or diodes.
• Check the operation of the meter at a known source before and after use.
