4. MAINTENANCE

To avoid electric shocks, disconnect the measurement leads
from any source of voltage before opening the instrument or
battery compartment. Do not use the instrument when it is open or
without locking the battery compartment cover.
This multimeter is designed to provide years of reliable service, if the
following care instructions are followed:
1. Keep the multimeter dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry.
2. Use and store the multimeter in normal temperatures. Extreme
temperatures can shorten the life of the electronic parts and distort
or melt plastic parts.
3. Handle the multimeter gently and carefully. Dropping it can
damage the electronic parts or the case.
4. Keep the multimeter clean. Wipe the case occasionally with a
damp cloth. DO NOT use chemical substances, cleaning solvents,
or detergents.
5. Use only new batteries of the recommended size and type.
Remove the old or used battery so it does not leak and damage
the instrument.
3. If the multimeter is to be stored for a long period of time, the
battery should be removed to prevent damage to the unit.
