TERMS IN THIS MANUAL
WARNING identifies conditions and actions that could result in serious injury or even
death to the user.
CAUTION identifies conditions and actions that could cause damage or malfunction in
the instrument.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture.
To avoid electrical shock hazard, observe the proper safety precautions when working
with voltages above 60 VDC or 30 VAC rms. These voltage levels pose a potential shock
hazard to the user. Do not touch test lead tips or the circuit being tested while power is
applied to the circuit being measured. Keep your fingers behind the finger guards of the
test leads during measurement. Inspect test leads, connectors, and probes for damaged
insulation or exposed metal before using the instrument. If any defects are found, replace
them immediately. Do not measure any circuit that draws more than the current rating of
the protection fuse. Do not attempt a current measurement where the open circuit voltage
is above the protection fuse voltage rating. Suspected open circuit voltage can be
checked with voltage functions. Never attempt a voltage measurement with the test lead
inserted into the
µ A/mA or A input jack. Only replace the blown fuse with the proper
rating as specified in this manual.
CAUTION
Disconnect the test leads from the test points before changing functions. Always set the
instrument to the highest range and work downward for an unknown value if you are
using manual ranging mode.
