WARNING

 Never make measurement on a circuit in which the electrical potential exceeds

600V. (While the measured voltage exceeds 600V, all the voltage display LED
light up).

 Do not attempt to make measurement in the presence of flammable gases, as the

use of the instrument may cause sparking, which could lead to an explosion.

 Never attempt to use the instrument if its surface or your hands are wet. (Do not

use in rainfall).

 Keep your hands and fingers behind the barriers during measurements.
 Never unlock and open the battery case during measurements.
 Verify proper operation on a known source before taking action as a result of the

indication.

 Never attempt to make any measurement in any abnormal conditions, such as a

broken case or exposed metal parts are present on the instrument or test probes.

 Do not make any modification to the instrument.
 Extreme caution when live circuit LED flashes or lights on.
 Correct indication of LEDs is only guaranteed within a temperature range of -

10ºC up to 55ºC (<85% RH)

4.1 Auto Power-on / Self Diagnostic Test

 Auto Power-on
 Short-circuiting the probes as follows powers on the instrument automatically and

goes into a self-diagnostic test.

Instrument may power on due to the influence of static charge.
