WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or
moisture. To avoid electrical shock hazard, observe the proper safety precautions
when working with voltages above 60 VDC or 30 VAC rms. These voltage levels
pose a potential shock hazard to the user. Do not touch test lead tips or the circuit
being tested while power is applied to the circuit being measured. Keep your
fingers behind the finger guards of the test leads during measurement. Inspect test
leads, connectors, and probes for damaged insulation or exposed metal before
using the instrument. If any defects are found, replace them immediately. Do not
measure any current that exceeds the current rating of the protection fuse. Do not
attempt a current measurement to any circuit where the open circuit voltage is
above the protection fuse voltage rating. Suspected open circuit voltage should be
checked with voltage functions. Never attempt a voltage measurement with the
test lead inserted into the A/mA or A input jack. Only replace the blown fuse with
the proper rating as specified in this manual. Only use the test lead provided with
the equipment or UL Listed Probe Assembly.
CAUTION
Disconnect the test leads from the test points before changing functions. Always
set the instrument to the highest range and work downward for an unknown value
when using manual ranging mode.
