WARNING
Do not touch a temperature probe sheath when measuring excessively high or low temperatures, or toxic substances.
WARNING
Do not attempt to measure temperatures beyond the range of the probe being used. Probe damage or personal injury could result from exceeding a probe's maximum temperature rating.
WARNING
The American National Safety Institute (ANSI) states that a shock hazard exists when probes or sensors are exposed to voltage levels greater than 42VDC or 42V peak AC. Do not use this instrument where voltages at the measurement sur- face exceed these levels.
WARNING
Do not substitute a metal part for the nylon screw in the rear case. Doing so will degrade electrical isolation of the case.
WARNING
The battery is accessible through a cover on the back of the instrument. To avoid electrical shock hazard, disconnect all temperature probes and sensors and turn the unit off before removing the cover.
WARNING
Never use this instrument or any probe or sensor inside a microwave oven.
CAUTION
Avoid making sharp bends in probe or sensor lead wires. Bending lead wires at a sharp angle can damage the wire causing probe failure.
