set the meter up.

Trip

The process of dispensing and account-

Please follow these common-sense precautions whenever you use your meter:

Plug the meter into a properly grounded wall outlet. This reduces the risk of shock and equipment damage in the event of a short circuit. DO NOT remove the power cord's ground pin and DO NOT use a ground adapter.

The power cord wall plug is the primary means of dis- connecting the meter from the AC supply. The meter is on whenever it is plugged into a live receptacle, even though the key switch and operator display may be off.

Place the meter close to an easily accessible wall outlet. Avoid using wall outlets controlled by wall switches or shared by other equipment.

Make sure the area in front of the wall outlet into which the meter is plugged is free from obstruction.

DO NOT route the power cord over sharp edges or trap it between pieces of furniture. Make sure there is no strain on the power cord.
