 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 power switching circuits, remember that high-amplitude
voltage pulses at the test points can damage the multimeter. Use of a TV filter will attenuate any such pulses.
 Use the 9V battery, properly installed in the meter's battery case, to power the meter.
 Replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator ( ) appears. With a low battery, the meter might produce
false readings that can lead to electric shock and personal injury.
 Do not measure voltages above 600V in Category III or 1,000V in Category II installations.
 The REL symbol is displayed in REL mode. Caution must be used due to the presence of hazardous voltage.
 Do not operate the meter with the case (or part of the case) removed.
