2.2 Precautions
• To avoid electric shock or personal injury, observe and follow all safety
instructions.
• Check the multimeter for damage before use. Do not use if you notice any
damage.
• Check test leads for cracks and exposed wires before using the multimeter.
Replace if necessary.
• Make sure multimeter is working properly by first testing a known voltage
source. If not working properly, protective equipment may be damaged; take
the multimeter to a service facility before use.
• Never measure voltages that may exceed the protection limit indicated on
the multimeter.
• Always be careful when working with voltages above 60V DC or 30V AC
RMS. Keep your fingers behind the probe barriers when taking voltage
measurements.
• Make sure the test probes are connected to the correct input terminals before
taking measurements.
• Do not expose the multimeter to dust, steam, or explosive gases.
• When connecting the test leads to a measurement circuit, connect the
common terminal first and then the active terminal. Reverse the operation
when disconnecting.
• Disconnect power from the circuit and discharge all capacitors before making
resistance, continuity or diode measurements.
• To avoid incorrect DC voltage readings, check the AC voltage circuit first and
then set the multimeter to the appropriate DC voltage range.
• Disconnect the power from the circuit and check the fuses before connecting
the wires when measuring the current. Turn on the power supply circuit after
making the connection.
• Never use the multimeter unless the back battery cover is in place and
securely fastened.
• When the low battery indicator "" appears, change the battery. The accuracy
of the multimeter cannot be guaranteed while the low battery indicator is on.
• Always disconnect the test leads from all powered circuits before opening
the cover.
• For continuous fire protection, replace the fuse with a fuse with the voltage
and current ratings specified in this manual.
