SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This meter has been designed for safe use, but must be

operated with caution. The rules listed below must be carefully

followed for safe operation.

1. NEVER apply voltage or current to the meter that exceeds

the specified maximum:

Input Protection Limits

Function Maximum Input

V DC, V AC 600V DC and 600V AC

mA AC/DC 200mA AC/DC

A AC/DC 10A AC/DC (for 15 seconds max.

every 15 minutes)

Resistance, Diode Test,

Continuity

500V AC/DC

Frequency 250V AC/DC

2. USE EXTREME CAUTION when working with high

voltages.

3. DO NOT measure voltage if the voltage on the "COM" input

jack exceeds 600V above earth ground.

4. NEVER connect the meter leads across a voltage source

while the function switch is in the current, resistance, or

diode mode. Doing so can damage the meter.

5. ALWAYS discharge filter capacitors in power supplies and

disconnect the power when making resistance or diode

tests.

6. ALWAYS turn off power and disconnect test leads before

opening the covers to replace the fuse or battery.

7. NEVER operate the meter unless the back cover is in place

and fastened securely.

8. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the

manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment

may be impaired.
