specification tables.
* When the multimeter is linked to measurement circuits, do
not touch unused terminals.
* Caution when working with voltages above 60Vdc or 30Vac
rms. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.
* When using the probes, keep your fingers behind the finger
guards.
* When making 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.
* Before changing functions, disconnect the test leads from
the circuit under test.
* For all dc functions, including manual or auto-ranging, to
avoid the risk of shock due to possible improper reading,
verify the presence of any ac voltages by first using the ac
function. Then select a dc voltage range equal to or
greater than the ac range.
* Disconnect circuits power and discharge all high-voltage
capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or
capacitance.
* Never perform resistance or continuity measurements on
live circuits.
* Before measuring current, check the meter's fuse and turn
off power to the circuit before connecting the meter to
the circuit.
* In TV repair work, or when carrying out measurements on
