Safety Information

Make sure the battery door is closed and latched before you operate the meter.

Remove test leads from the meter before you open the battery door.

Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check test leads continuity. Replace damaged test leads before you use the meter.

Caution

To avoid possible damage to meter or to equipment under test:

Disconnect the power and discharge all high- voltage capacitors before testing resistance or continuity.

Use the proper jacks, function, and range for your measurement or sourcing application.

Do not use the meter if it operates abnormally. Protection may be impaired. When in doubt, have the meter serviced.

Do not operate the meter around explosive gas, vapor, or dust.

Use only a single 9V battery, properly installed in the meter case, to power the meter.

When servicing the meter, use only specified replacement parts.

To protect yourself, adhere to the following guidelines:

Use caution when working above 30V ac rms, 42V ac pk, or 60V dc. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.

When using the probes, keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.

Connect the common test lead before you connect the live test lead. When you disconnect test leads, disconnect the live test lead first.
