1.Safety Information
Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere.
Keep product surfaces clean and dry.
Do not apply more than the rated voltage (as marked on the digital clamp
meter) between terminals, or between terminal and earth ground.
When measuring current, turn off the circuit power before connecting the
digital clamp meter in the circuit. Remember to place the digital clamp
meter in series with the circuit.
When servicing the digital clamp meter, use only the specified replacement
parts.
Use caution when working above 60 V DC, 30 V AC RMS, or 42.4 V peak.
Such voltages pose a shock hazard.
When using the test leads, keep your fingers behind the finger guards on
the test leads.
Remove the test leads from the digital clamp meter before you open the
battery cover.
To avoid false readings, which may lead to possible electric shock or
personal injury, replace the battery as soon as the low battery indicator
appears and flashes.
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before
testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or capacitance.
Use the proper terminals, function, and range for your measurements.
When the range of the value to be measured is unknown, set the rotary
switch position as the highest range, or choose the auto ranging mode. To
avoid damages to the digital clamp meter, do not exceed the maximum
limits of the input values shown in the technical specification tables.
Connect the common test lead before you connect the live test lead. When
you disconnect the leads, disconnect the live test lead first.
Before changing functions, disconnect the test leads from the circuit under
test.
