A Warning identifies conditions and procedures that are dangerous to
the user.
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury:
x Carefully read all instructions.
x Use the Product only as specified, or the protection
supplied by the Product can be compromised.
x Limit operation to the specified measurement
category, voltage, or amperage ratings.
x Do not use the Product around explosive gas, vapor,
or in damp or wet environments.
x Do not touch voltages > 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak,
or 60 V dc.
x Do not exceed the Measurement Category (CAT)
rating of the lowest rated individual component of a
Product, probe, or accessory.
x Measure a known voltage first to make sure that the
Product operates correctly.
x Do not use, and disable the Product if it is damaged.
x Do not work alone.
x Disconnect power and discharge all high-voltage
capacitors before you measure resistance,
continuity, capacitance, or a diode junction.
x 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.
x Remove circuit power before you connect the
Product in the circuit when you measure current.
Connect the Product in series with the circuit.
x Limit operation to the specified measurement
category, voltage, or amperage ratings.
x Have an approved technician repair the Product.

x Do not operate the Product with covers removed or
the case open. Hazardous voltage exposure is
possible.
x Use only specified replacement parts.
x Remove the input signals before you clean the
Product.
x Replace the batteries when the low battery indicator
shows to prevent incorrect measurements.
x The battery door must be closed and locked before
you operate the Product.
x Remove the test leads and all input signals before
you replace the batteries or fuses.
x Do not use the Product if it operates incorrectly.
x Examine the case before you use the Product. Look
for cracks or missing plastic. Carefully look at the
insulation around the terminals.
x Use only correct measurement category (CAT),
voltage, and amperage rated probes, test leads, and
adapters for the measurement.
x Do not use test leads if they are damaged. Examine
the test leads for damaged insulation, exposed
metal, or if the wear indicator shows. Check test lead
continuity.
x Keep fingers behind the finger guards on the
probes.
x Do not touch the probes to a voltage source when
the test leads are connected to the current terminals.
x Replace a blown fuse with exact replacement only
for continued protection against arc flash.
x Remove the batteries if the Product is not used for
an extended period of time, or if stored in
temperatures above 50 °C. If the batteries are not
removed, battery leakage can damage the Product.
x Batteries contain hazardous chemicals that can
cause burns or explode. If exposure to chemicals
occurs, clean with water and get medical aid.
x Connect the common test lead before the live test
lead and remove the live test lead before the
common test lead.
x Remove all probes, test leads, and accessories that
are not necessary for the measurement.
x Do not use the TL175 or TP175 test probes in CAT III
or CAT IV environments without the probe tip fully
extended and correct category rating visible in the
window.
x When the TL175 is used with instruments or other
accessories, the lowest category rating of the
combination applies. One exception is when the
probe is used with the AC172 or AC175.
x Make sure test leads are firmly connected to
instrument and other accessories.
