I. SAFETY INFORMATION

Read the following safety information carefully before operating the meter.

To avoid damages to the instrument, do not exceed the maximum limits of the
input values shown in the technical specification tables.

Do not use the meter or test leads if they look damaged.

Use extreme caution when working around bare conductors or bus 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 impaired.

Read the operating instructions before use and follow all safety information.

Caution when working with voltages above 60VDC or 30VAC RMS. Such
voltages cause a shock hazard.

Before taking resistance measurements or testing acoustic continuity,
disconnect circuit from main power supply and all loads from circuit.

U.S. Pat. No. Des. 447,070
Safety symbols
Caution refer to this manual before using the meter.
Dangerous voltages.
Meter is protected throughout by double insulation or
reinforced insulation.
When servicing, use only specified replacement parts.

NOTE
1.
The "+" sign printed on Panel must face the power source for
accurate measurement.
2. If the device under test is switching mode power, the meter KW, PF
and θreading maybe incorrect.
NOTE
In the 3φ4W power measurement, all three WRor WSand WTmust be
positive. If users find one negative power, check the connection of test
leads and clamping of jaw. Make sure all the connections and clamping
are correct to obtain correct power.
4-6 Resistance & Continuity Measurement
WARNING
Before taking any in circuit resistance measurement, remove Power form the
circuit being tested and discharge all capacitors.
 Before taking resistance measurements, make sure the circuit is not live and
discharge any capacitors present in the circuit.
 Set the rotary switch to the "
Ω
, " or "M
Ω
" range.
 Insert the test leads into the input jack. (Black to COM and Red to Ω).
 Connect the test leads to the circuit being measured and read the displayed
value.
 When the reading is below 40
Ω,
it will be indicated by a continuous beeping.
