USEEXTREMECAUTIONwhenworking with high voltages.
3.
DONOT measurevoltageif the voltageon the "COM" inputjack exceeds
600V aboveearth ground.
4.
NEVERconnectthe meterleads acrossa voltagesource while thefunction
switch is inthe current, resistance,or diode mode. Doingso can damage
the meter.
5.
ALWAYS dischargefilter capacitors inpower suppliesanddisconnectthe
powerwhen makingresistanceor diode tests.
6.
ALWAYS turn off power and disconnecttest leadsbeforeopeningthe
covers to replacethe fuse or battery.
7.
NEVERoperatethe meter unlessthe back cover and the batteryandfuse
covers are in place andfastenedsecurely.
