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 or V AC |
600V AC and DC |
|
|
mA DC |
200mA DC |
|
|
A DC |
10A DC (for 15 seconds max. |
|
every 15 minutes) |
Resistance, Diode Test, |
500V DC/AC |
Continuity |
|
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.

SAFETY SYMBOLS
WARNING
CAUTION
MAX 600V
This symbol adjacent to another symbol, terminal or operating device indicates that the operator must refer to an explanation in the Operating Instructions to avoid personal injury or damage to the meter.
This WARNING symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
This CAUTION symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which if not avoided, may result damage to the product.
This symbol advises the user that the terminal(s) so marked must not be connected to a circuit point at which the voltage with respect to earth ground exceeds 600V.
This symbol adjacent to one or more terminals identifies them as being associated with ranges that may, in normal use, be subjected to particularly hazardous voltages. For maximum safety, the meter and its test leads should not be handled when these terminals are energized.
This symbol indicates that a device is protected throughout by double insulation or reinforced insulation.
