Safety Information

"Warning" and "Caution" Statements

A “XW Warning" identifies hazardous conditions and actions that could cause bodily harm or death.
A "W Caution" identifies conditions and actions that could damage the Meter, the equipment under test, or cause permanent loss of data.
XWWarnings and Precautions
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, follow these guidelines:
Use the Meter only as specified in this manual or the protection provided by
the Meter might be impaired.
Do not use the Meter or test leads if they appear damaged, or if the Meter is
not operating properly.
Always use proper terminals, switch position, and range for measurements.
Verify the Meter's operation by measuring a known voltage. If in doubt, have
the Meter serviced.
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on Meter, between
terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
Use caution with voltages above 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc.
These voltages pose a shock hazard.
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before
testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or capacitance.
Do not use the Meter around explosive gas or vapor.
When using test leads or probes, keep your fingers behind the finger
guards.
Remove test leads from Meter before opening the battery door or Meter
case.
Comply with local and national safety requirements when working in
hazardous locations.
Use proper protective equipment, as required by local or national authorities
when working in hazardous areas.
Avoid working alone.
Use only the replacement fuse specified or the protection may be impaired.
Check the test leads for continuity before use. Do not use if the readings are
high or noisy.
2
Do not use the Auto-V LoZ function to measure voltages in circuits that could be damaged by this function’s low input impedance (3 kΩ) (114, 116 and 117).

Notes: [1] Models listed in this column also refer to the “C” version of the model. For example, those rows containing model 115 are applicable to the 115C
as well.
[2] All ac ranges except Auto-V LoZ are specified from 1 % to 100% of range. Auto-V LoZ is specified from 0.0 V. Because inputs below 1 % of range
are not specified, it is normal for this and other true-rms meters to display non-zero readings when the test leads are disconnected from a circuit or are shorted together. For volts, crest factor of 3 at 4000 counts, decreasing linearly to 1.5 at full scale. For amps, crest factor of ≤3. AC volts is ac-coupled. Auto-V LoZ, AC mV, AC μamps, and AC amps are dc-coupled.
[3] AC Volts Hz is ac-coupled and specified from 5 Hz to 50 kHz. AC Amps Hz is dc-coupled and specified from 45 Hz to 5 kHz. [4] >10 A unspecified. [5] Temperature uncertainty (accuracy) does not include the error of the thermocouple probe.

Basic Maintenance

Testing the Fuse (115 & 117 only)

To test the fuse:
1. Set the rotary switch to
2. Plug a test lead into the v jack and touch the probe to the 10A jack, as shown in Figure 1.
If the display shows a resistance value in the range of that shown in Figure 1, the fuse is good.
If the display reads 0L, replace the fuse and test again.
If the display shows any other value, have the Meter serviced. See “Service Information” earlier in this document.

To remove the battery door for battery replacement, refer to Figure 2 while performing the following:
1. Remove the test leads from the Meter.
2. Remove the battery door screw.
3. Use the finger recess to lift the door slightly.
4. Lift the door straight up to separate it from the case.
5. The battery fits inside the battery door, which is then inserted into the case, bottom edge first, until it is
fully seated. Do not attempt to install the battery directly into the case.
6. Install and tighten battery door screw.
To open the case for fuse replacement, refer to Figure 2 while performing the following:
1. Remove the test leads from the Meter.
