7 II/28 II Calibration Information Safety Information "Warning" and "Caution" Statements A Warning identifies hazardous conditions and actions that could cause bodily harm or death. A Caution identifies conditions and actions that could damage the Meter, the equipment under test, or cause permanent loss of data.
Digital Multimeters Safety Information • When making electrical connections, connect the common test lead before connecting the live test lead; when disconnecting, disconnect the live test lead before disconnecting the common test lead. • Do not use the Meter if it operates abnormally. Protection may be impaired. When in doubt, have the Meter serviced. • Do not use the Meter around explosive gas, vapor or in damp or wet environments. • Use only three 1.

Digital Multimeters Basic Maintenance Basic Maintenance XWWarning To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, repairs or servicing covered in this manual should be performed only by qualified personnel. General Maintenance Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents. Dirt or moisture in the terminals can affect readings and can falsely activate the Input Alert feature. Clean the terminals as follows: 1.
27 II/28 II Calibration Information How to Replace the Batteries XWWarning To avoid false readings, which could lead to possible electric shock or personal injury, replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator () appears. If the display shows “batt” the Meter will not function until the battery is replaced. Replace the battery as follows, refer to Figure 2: 1. Turn the rotary switch to OFF and remove the test leads from the terminals. 2.
