• Do not mistake a downscale reading as an indication that no
potential is present. Dangerous potentials may be present
that may result in user injury.
• When replacing the battery, dispose of the depleted battery
in accordance with any prevailing safety or environmental
regulations.
• A static charge on the face of the meter may cause the
meter to produce inaccurate readings, which could lead to
user injury. This condition is usually observed in dry
climates, when the face of the meter is rubbed with a cloth.
Apply Antistat solution, or mild detergent, to the face of the
meter to dissipate the static charge.
