DANGER
󱛠 Never make measurement on a circuit in which the electrical potential exceeds
AC
300 V.
󱛠 Do not make measurement when thunder is rumbling. Stop measurement and
take off the instrument from the object under test.
󱛠 Do not attempt to make measurement in the presence of flammable gasses.
Otherwise, the use of the instrument may cause sparking, which can lead to an
explosion.
󱛠 To avoid electrical shock by touching the equipment under test or its
surroundings, be sure to wear insulated protective gear.
󱛠 Transformer jaws are made of metal and their tips are not completely insulated.
Be especially careful about the possible shorting where the equipment under test
has exposed metal parts.
󱛠 Never attempt to use the instrument if its surface or your hand is wet.
󱛠 Do not exceed the maximum allowable input of any measuring range.
󱛠 Do not measure a current over 30 A. Transformer jaws may heat to cause a fire or
deformation of molding parts, which will degrade insulation. When clamping the
conductors on which over
30 A flowing and " " is displayed on the LCD, stop
measurement immediately and take off the instrument from the conductor under test.
󱛠 Never open the Battery cover during a measurement.
󱛠 When the transformer jaws are worn to the wear line (see the figure below), stop
the use of the instrument.

WARNING
󱛠 Never attempt to make any measurement if any abnormal conditions, such as a
broken cover or exposed metal parts are pre
sent on the instrument.
󱛠 Do not install substitute parts or make any modification to the instrument. Return
the instrument to your local KYORITSU distributor for repair or re-calibration.
󱛠 Do not try to replace the batteries if the surface of the instrument is wet.
󱛠 Ensure that the instrument is switched off when opening the Battery cover for
battery replacement.
󱛠 Always be sure to keep your fingers and hands behind the Safety barrier.
(see the figure below) Otherwise, user may be exposed to the danger of
electrical shock.
#
CAUTION
󱛠 Press the Function button and confirm the appropriate function is selected before
starting a measurement.
󱛠 Do not expose the instrument to direct sunlight, high temperatures and humidity
or dew.
󱛠 Press the Power button and turn off the instrument after use. When the instrument
will not be in use for a long period, place it in storage after removing the
batteries.
󱛠 Use a damp cloth with water or neutral detergent for cleaning the instrument. Do
not use abrasives or solvents.
󱛠 Take sufficient care not to apply shock such as drop. Otherwise, precisely
adjusted Transformer jaws will be damaged.
󱛠 Be careful not to pinch some foreign substances with the Transformer jaw tips.
󱛠 Care should be taken not to pinch your fingers when opening or closing the
Jaws.
󱛠 Pass your hand through the Strap band and use the instrument.
