SAFETY INFORMATION

To ensure that youuse the meter safety, follow the safety guidelines listed below.

• This meter is for indoor use, altitude up to 2000m..

• Avoid working alone. Take precautions when working around moving parts.

• Use extreme caution what working around bare conductors or him bars. Accidental

contact with the conductor could result in electric shock.

• Use the meter only as specified in this manual. Otherwise, the protection provided by

the meter may be impared.

• Never measure current while the test leads are inserted into the input terminals.

• Do use the meter if it looks damaged.

• Inspect the leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check test leads continuity.

Replace damaged leads.

• Disconnect the power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing in the

resistance, continuity, and diode function.

• Use caution when working above 60VDC or 30VAC RMS, Such voltages pose a

shock hazard.

• When making measurements, keep your fingers behind the finger guards, on the probe.

• Set the proper function and range before attaching the meter to circuit. To avoid

damaging the meter disconnect the test leads from test points before changing functions.

• Read this operation manual completely before using the meter and follow all

safety instructions.

• The meter is safety-certified in compliance with UL311-1, C22.2 NO.1010.1-92 and

EN61010 (IEC1010-1, IEC 1010-2-031, IEC 1010-2-032). Installation Category II 1000V
or Installation Category III 600V. In order to maintain its insulation properties, please be
sure to use with ULListed Category II 1000Vor Category III 600V p r o b e s .

• Installation Category (CAT) II is an environment with smaller transient over voltage than

Installation Category III.

• CE requirement: Under the influence of R.F. field according to standard, the supplied test

leads will pick up induced noise. To have better shielding effect, a short test lead should
be used. The following tests are required in order to conform to CE:

1. IEC 801-2:ESD (electro static discharge) test.
2. IEC 801-3:RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) test.
Condition: 27 ˜ ˜5 0 0 M H

Z

, signal intensity is 3 volts per meter.

3. IEC 801-4:EFT(electro fast transient) test.
4. EN 55011: EMI (electro magnetic interference) test.
