2.47 Observe whether HOLD function is activated. The meter may not show
the presence of dangerous potentials when HOLD is activated. For
example, if HOLD is applied when the meter is reading zero, and 120VAC
is subsequently applied, the meter will continue to read zero. Failure to
observe this precaution may result in damage to the meter or injury to the
user.
2.48 Do not attempt to test charged capacitors. Only discharged capacitors
may be tested. If you wish to test a capacitor, discharge it using an
approved method before connecting it to the meter. Caution: Some
capacitors can store dangerous lethal charges. Discharging these
capacitors can be dangerous unless an approved method is used. Failure
to observe this precaution may result in damage to the meter or injury
to the user.
2.49 Do not use the thermocouple to measure the temperature of objects that are
electrically “live”. Failure to observe this precaution may result in damage
to the meter or injury to the user.
