International Safety Symbols This symbol, adjacent to another symbol or terminal, indicates that the user must refer to the manual for further information. This symbol, adjacent to a terminal, indicates that, under normal use, hazardous voltages may be present Safety Precautions 1. Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or death. Read and understand this manual before use. 2. Secure any covers or battery doors before use. 3. Inspect the condition of the meter for any damage before use.

Operation WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. Before use, always test the Detector on a known live circuit to verify proper operation NOTE on RF Interference: In the voltage mode, RF signals in close proximity to the detector may cause the voltage light and beeper to latch into a constant tone and light indication. Wait until the RF signal has disappeared before proceeding with voltage detection. VOLTAGE DETECTION 1. Slide the Function switch to the Voltage position. 2. The “VOLTAGE” LED will light.
