To prevent damage to the meter or electrical
shock!
According to the safety standard, the maximum voltage
input power is classified as follows to protect the users
against transient impulse voltage in power lines.
Over-voltage Category (CAT.) Maximum input voltage
Do not use the meter near equipment emitting noise or
under an environment with sudden temperature
change; otherwise, unstable or erroneous reading will
appear.
Take the batteries out of the meter if it will be left idle for
a long time.
After measurement, switch the function knob back to
OFF position. As there will be slight power consumption
under auto power off mode.
Please position the conductor in the center of jaw in
order to ensure the accuracy of measurement while
