SAFETY STATEMENTS
WARNING
• Do not operate this device if you do not have the correct knowledge. Incor-
rect operation can cause damage, shock, injury or death to persons.
• Do not start a measurement before setting the function switch to the cor-
rect position. Failure to follow this warning can cause damage to the instru-
ment and injury to persons.
• Do not change to the resistance function when measuring voltage.
• Do not use the device if the test leads or the device show signs of damage.
• Use extreme care when measuring voltages > 25 VAC RMS or 35 VDC.
• Do not perform diode, capacitance, or continuity tests before removing
power from the circuit or device under test.
• Allow time for large capacitors to fully discharge before taking capacitance
measurements.
This symbol, adjacent to another symbol or terminal, indicates that
the user must refer to the manual for further information.
This symbol, adjacent to a terminal, indicates that, under normal use,
hazardous voltages may be present.
Double insulation.
• This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. See the
User Manual for the full FCC Compliance text. This applies also
to Industry Canada Compliance.
• Safety Category Rating: CAT IV 600 V, CAT III 1000 V

PI / DAR INSULATION TESTS
1. Reference the instructions for Insulation Resistance tests above.
2. Select PI (Polarization Index) or DAR (Dielectric Absorption Ra-
tio) from the extended function icons on bottom row of LCD.
These icons are explained later in this guide.
3. Press TEST OK to test.
4. Press MODE to show the test time. The clock icon and the
elapsed timer will appear. PI is a ten-minute test and DAR is a
one-minute test.
5. The test stops automatically and the result (ratio) appears. The
PASS/FAIL LED will indicate in green for PASS or red for FAIL.
EARTH BOND RESISTANCE TESTS
1. Select the Earth Bond resistance switch position (ZERO Ω).
2. Insert the black probe into the COM terminal and red probe into
the ZERO/Ω terminal.
3. Enable the Earth Bond resistance extended function icon (bot-
tom row of LCD, third from left). These icons are discussed later
in this guide.
4. Short the ends of the probes and press the MODE button to
zero the display.
5. Connect the probes to the device under test.
6. Press TEST OK to test.
7. To lock the test ON, long press the HOLD / Lock button and
then press TEST OK to start.
