CAUTIONS

Improperuseofthismetercancausedamage,shock,injuryordeath.Readandunderstand

thisusermanualbeforeoperatingthemeter.

Alwaysremovethetestleadsbeforereplacingthebatteryorfuses.

Inspecttheconditionofthetestleadsandthemeteritselfforanydamagebeforeoperating

themeter.Repairorreplaceanydamagebeforeuse.

Usegreatcarewhenmakingmeasurementsifthevoltagesaregreaterthan25VACrmsor

35VDC.Thesevoltagesareconsideredashockhazard.

Alwaysdischargecapacitorsandremovepowerfromthedeviceundertestbefore

performingDiode,ResistanceorContinuitytests.

Voltagechecksonelectricaloutletscanbedifficultandmisleadingbecauseofthe

uncertaintyofconnectiontotherecessedelectricalcontacts.Othermeansshouldbeused

toensurethattheterminalsarenot"live".

Iftheequipmentisusedinamannernotspecifiedbythemanufacturer,theprotection

providedbytheequipmentmaybeimpaired.

Thisdeviceisnotatoyandmustnotreachchildren’shands.Itcontainshazardousobjects

aswellassmallpartsthatthechildrencouldswallow.Incaseachildswallowsanyofthem,

pleasecontactaphysicianimmediately

Donotleavebatteriesandpackingmateriallyingaroundunattended;theycanbe

dangerousforchildreniftheyusethemastoys

Incasethedeviceisgoingtobeunusedforanextendedperiodoftime,removethe

batteriestopreventthemfromdraining

Expiredordamagedbatteriescancausecauterizationoncontactwiththeskin.Always,

therefore,usesuitablehandglovesinsuchcases

Seethatthebatteriesarenotshort‐circuited.Donotthrowbatteriesintothefire.

Donotdirectlyviewordirectthelaserpointerataneye.Lowpowervisiblelasersdonot

normallypresentahazard,butmaypresentsomepotentialforhazardifvieweddirectlyfor
