Safety & Warnings
To ensure that you use the meter safely, follow the safety guidelines listed below:
– Read the operation manual completely before using the meter and follow all safety instructions.
– This meter is for indoor use, altitude up to 2,000 m.
– Avoid working alone.
– Use the meter only as specified in the manual; otherwise, the protection provided by the meter may be impaired.
– Never measure voltage while the test leads are inserted into the current input terminals.
– Do not use the meter if it looks damaged.
– Inspect the leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check test lead continuity. Replace damaged leads.
– Disconnect the power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing in the resistance, continuity, and diode function.
– Be cautious when working above 60V DC or 30V AC RMS. Such voltages may cause a shock hazard.
– When making measurements, keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the probe.
– Select the proper function and range for your measurement. To avoid damaging the meter, disconnect the test leads from test points before changing functions.
– CE requirement: Under the influence of R.F field according to standard, the supplied test leads will pick up induced noise. To have better shielding effect, a short-twisted lead should be used.
– The meter is safety-certified in compliance with EN61010 (IEC 1010-1, IEC 1010-2-031) Installation Category III 600V and CAT II 1000V. To maintain its insulation properties, please be sure to use with the standard or compatible test probes.
