Safety Precautions
1. Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or death. Read and
understand this user manual before operating the meter.
2. Make sure any covers or battery doors are properly closed and secured.
3. Always remove the test leads before replacing the battery or fuses.
4. Inspect the condition of the test leads and the meter itself for any damage before
operating the meter. Repair any damage before use.
5. Do not exceed the maximum rated input limits.
6. Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are greater than 25VAC
rms or 35VDC. These voltages are considered a shock hazard.
7. Always discharge capacitors and remove power from the device under test before
performing Capacitance, Diode, Resistance or Continuity tests.
8. Remove the battery from the meter if the meter is to be stored for long periods.
9. To avoid electric shock, do not measure AC current on any circuit whose voltage
exceeds 250V AC.
10. Voltage checks on electrical outlets can be difficult and misleading because of the
uncertainty of connection to the electrical contacts. Other means should be used to
ensure that the terminals are not "live".
