1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
! When using this meter, please observe all normal safety rules concerning:
Protection against the dangers of electric current.
Protection of the meter against misuse.
" DO NOT use leads if damaged or if the wire is exposed in any way.
1.2. GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
! Familiarise yourself with the application and limitations of the meter as well as the potential hazards. IF IN ANY DOUBT CONSULT
A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
! Before use, verify the meter's operation my measuring a known voltage.
! Before changing functions, disconnect test leads from the circuit under test.
! Connect the test lead before connecting the test probe. When disconnecting, remove the test probe first.
WARNING! Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance, diode or continuity.
#
! Use proper function and range for the measurement.
! Before operating the "Select" switch, disconnect the leads and test probes from the circuit under test.
WARNING! Never perform resistance measurements on live circuits.
#
! Always be careful when working with voltages above 60Vdc or 30Vac rms. Keep your fingers behind the probe barriers while
measuring.
WARNING! CATll-Measurement. Category ll is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected to low-voltage
#
supply. (Examples are measurements on domestic appliances, portable tools etc.). DO NOT use the meter to measure within
Measurement Categories lll and lV.
" DO NOT use the meter around explosive gas, vapour or dust.
