Read First: Safety Information
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury:
If the Tester is used in a manner not specied by the manufacturer, ●
protection provided by the Tester may be affected.
Test on a known live source within the rated ac voltage range of the ●
product, both before and after use to ensure unit is in good working
condition.
When using the Tester, if tip does not glow, voltage could still be ●
present. The Tester indicates active voltage in the presence of
electrostatic elds of sufcient strength generated from the source
(MAINS) voltage. If the eld strength is low, the Tester may not provide
indication of live voltages. Lack of an indication occurs if the Tester is
unable to sense the presence of voltage which may be inuenced by
several factors including, but not limited to:
Shielded wire/cables ●
Thickness and type of insulation ●
Distance from the voltage source ●
Fully-isolated users that prevent an effective ground ●
Receptacles in recessed sockets/ differences in socket design ●
Condition of the Tester and Batteries ●
Do not use if the Tester appears damaged or if the Tester is not ●
operating properly. Specically examine the probe tip for cracks or
breakage before use. If in doubt, have the Tester serviced.
Do not apply more that the rated voltage as marked on the Tester. ●
Use caution with voltages above 30 V ac as a shock hazard may exist. ●
Comply with local and national safety requirements. ●
Use proper protective equipment as required by local or national ●
authorities.

Operating Instructions
The product is always on and ready to use, subject to battery and Tester
condition.
Checking Battery and Tester
Push the Battery Check Button. If the tip glows, the batteries are good and the
Tester is operational. If the tip does not glow, replace batteries with two AAA
(LR3) batteries. If the Tester still does not function, have it serviced.
Checking for AC Voltage
Placing the tip of the Tester near an ac voltage (within the specied range of the
Tester) produces a steady glow at the tip.
