• Remove test leads from the meter before opening the Meter case or
battery cover.
• Remove the jaw from all conductors before opening the Meter case or
battery cover.
• Never operate the meter with the battery cover removed or the case
open.
• Never remove the battery cover or open the case of the meter without
first removing the test leads or the jaws from a live conductor.
• Use caution when working with voltages above 30 V AC rms, 42 V AC
peak, or 60 V DC. These voltages pose a shock hazard.
• Do not attempt to measure any voltage that might exceed the
maximum range of the meter.
• Use the proper terminals, function, and range for your measurements.
• Do not operate the meter around explosive gas, vapor, or dust.
• When using probes, never touch the probe beyond the barrier.
• When making electrical connections, connect the common test lead
before connecting the live test lead; when disconnecting, disconnect
the live test lead before disconnecting the common test lead.
• Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before testing
resistance, continuity, capacitance or diodes
• Use only 1.5V AAA batteries, properly installed in the meter case, to
power the meter.
• To avoid false readings that can lead to electrical shock and injury,
replace the battery as soon as the low battery indicator (
Check meter operation on a known source before and after use.
• When servicing, use only specified replacement parts.
• Adhere to local and national safety codes. Individual protective
equipment must be used to prevent shock and arc blast injury where
hazardous live conductors are exposed.
• Only use the test lead provided with the meter or UL Listed Probe
Assembly rated CAT III 600V or better.
