DANGER
ÑAvoid electrical shock: do not touch the test leads, tips or the circuit being tested.
ÑDo not try a voltage measurement with the test leads in the 20A or the mA terminal.
ÑWhen testing for the presence of voltage or current, make sure the meter is functioning correctly. Take a reading of a known voltage or current before accepting a zero reading.
ÑChoose the proper range and function for the measurement. Do not try voltage or current measurements that may exceed the ratings marked on the Function/Range switch or terminal.
ÑWhen measuring current, connect the meter in series with the load.
ÑNever connect more than one set of test leads to the meter.
ÑDisconnect the live test lead before disconnecting the common test lead.
ÑThe mA and the 20A terminals are protected by fuses. To avoid possible injury or damage, use only in circuits limited to 400mA or 20A for 30 seconds.
