A Warning identifies conditions and procedures that are
dangerous to the user.

XW Warning

To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal
injury:

• Read all safety information before you use the Product.

• Do not alter the Product and use only as specified, or the
protection supplied by the Product can be compromised.

• Comply with local and national safety codes. Use
personal protective equipment (approved rubber gloves,
face protection, and flame-resistant clothes) to prevent
shock and arc blast injury where hazardous live
conductors are exposed.

• Use Product-approved measurement category (CAT),
voltage, and amperage rated accessories (probes, test
leads, and adapters) for all measurements.

• Do not use test leads if they are damaged. Examine the
test leads for damaged insulation and measure a known
voltage.

• Do not use the Product if it is altered or damaged.

• Do not work alone.

• Do not make connections on hazardous live conductors
in damp or wet environments.

• Do not use the Product around gas or vapor.

• Protect the Product against direct solar radiation.

• De-energize the circuit or wear personal protective
equipment (PPE) when you remove test leads installed
outdoors because the insulation properties can be
compromised by dust and moisture.

• Do not apply or remove test leads on energized circuits
under wet conditions.

• Do not exceed the Measurement Category (CAT) rating of
the lowest rated individual component of a Product,
probe, or accessory.

• Keep fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.

• Do not touch voltages >30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or
60 V dc.

• Do not apply more than the rated voltage, between the
terminals or between each terminal and earth ground.

• Measure a known voltage first to make sure that the
Product operates correctly.

• Do not touch the metal parts of one test lead when the
other is still connected to hazardous voltage.

• Have an approved technician repair the Product.

• Remove the input signals before you clean the Product.
