• When using test leads or probes, keep your fingers behind
 the finger guards.
• Remove test lead from Meter before opening the battery
 door or Meter case.
• Use the Meter only as specified in this manual or the 
 protection by the Meter might be impaired.
• Always use proper terminals, switch position, and range for
 measurements.
• Verify the Meter’s operation by measuring a known voltage.
 If in doubt, have the Meter serviced.
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on
 Meter, between terminals or between any terminal and
 earth ground.
• Only replace the blown fuse with the proper rating as 
 specified in this manual.
• Use caution with voltages above 30 Vac rms, 42 Vac peak,
 or 60 Vdc. These voltages pose a shock hazard.
• To avoid false readings that can lead to electric shock and
 injury, replace battery as soon as low battery indicator.
• Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage
 capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or
 capacitance.
• Do not use Meter around explosive gas or vapor.
