2Safety Information
Understand and follow operating instructions
carefully. Use the meter only as specified in this
manual; otherwise, the protection provided by
the meter may be impaired.
WARNING
To avoid possible electric shock, personal injury
or death, follow these instructions:
․Do not use if meter appears damaged, Visually
inspect the meter to ensure case is not
cracked and back case is securely in place.
․Inspect and replace leads if insulation is
damaged,metal is exposed or probes are
cracked. Pay particular attention to the
insulation surrounding the connectors.
․Do not use Meter if it operates abnormally as
protection maybe impaired.
․Do not use during electrical storms or in wet
weather.
․Do not use around explosive gas, dust or
vapor.
․Do not apply more than the rated voltage to
the meter.
․Do not use without the battery and the back
case properly installed.

3
․Remove the test leads from the circuit prior to
removing battery cap.
․Do not attempt to repair this unit as it has no
userserviceable parts.
․Voltages exceeding 30VAC or 60VDC pose a
shock hazard so use caution.
CAUTION
To protect yourself, think “Safety First”:
․ Use appropriate personal protective equipment
such as safety glasses, face shields, insulating
gloves, insulating boots and/or insulating mats.
․Before each use.
- Perform a continuity test by touching the test
leads together to verify the functionally of the
battery and test leads.
- Use the 3 Point Safety Method. (1) Verify
meter operation by measuring a known
voltage. (2) Apply meter to circuit under test.
(3) Return to the known live voltage again to
ensure proper operation.
․Never ground yourself when taking electrical
measurements.
․ Connect the black common lead to ground or
neutral before applying the red test lead to
potential voltage. Disconnect the red test lead
from the voltage first.
․ Always work with a partner.
․When using the probes, keep fingers as far
behind the probe tips as possible.
․Never connect a source of voltage with the
function rotary switch in Ω/ :</A //Hz
position.Never set the meter in A function
to measure the voltage of a power supply
circuit in equipment that could result in
damage to the meter and the equipment
under test.

ADVERTENCIA
Para evitar posibles riesgos de electrocución,
lesiones principales o la muerte, siga estas
pautas :
No use el instrumento si parece estar dañado.
Inspecciónelo visualmente para asegurarse de
que la cubierta no esté fisurada y que la parte
posterior de la misma esté firmemente fijada en
su sitio.
●Inspeccione y reemplace los cables si el
aislamiento está dañado, hay partes metálicas
expuestas o las sondas están fisuradas. Preste
particular atención al aislamiento de alrededor
de los conectores.
●No use el instrumento si funciona en forma
anormal, porque puede disminuirse la protección.
●No use el instrumento durante tormentas
eléctricas o con tiempo húmedo.
●No use el instrumento cerca de gases
explosivos, polvo o vapor.
●No aplique al instrumentos voltajes superiores
al nominal.
●No use el instrumento sin las baterías y la parte
posterior de la cubierta correctamente
instaladas.

19
●Retire los cables de prueba del circuito antes de
desmontar la tapa de las baterías.
●No intente reparar esta unidad, puesto que no
contiene piezas reparables por el usuario.
●Los voltajes superiores a 30 VCA o 60 VCC
representan un riesgo de electrocución, por lo
que debe trabajar con precaución.
PRECAUCIÓN
Para protegerse, piense que “ La seguridad
primero!”:
●Use equipos de protección personal apropiados,
tales como gafas de seguridad, máscaras faciales,
guantes, calzado y/o alfombras aislantes.
●Antes de cada uso.
- Realice una prueba de continuidad poniendo en
contacto los cables de prueba para verificar el
funcionamiento de las baterías y los cables.
- Use el método de seguridad de 3 puntos.
(1) Verifique el funcionamiento del instrumento
midiendo un voltaje conocido.
(2) Aplique el instrumento al circuito en prueba.
(3) Vuelva al voltaje conectado conocido para
asegurarse de que el funcionamiento es
correcto.
●No se conecte a tierra cuando tome medidas
eléctricas.
●Conecte el cable negro común a tierra o al
neutro antes de aplicar el cable rojo al voltaje
potencial.
Desconecte primero el cable rojo del voltaje.
●Trabaje siempre con un compañero.
●Cuando use las sondas, mantenga los dedos
tan lejos de las puntas de las mismas como sea
posible.
●Nunca conecte una fuente de voltaje con el
conmutador rotativo de funciones en las
posiciones Ω/ :</A //Hz .
●Nunca coloque el instrumento en la función
A para medir el voltaje de un circuito de
fuente de alimentación de un equipo que pueda
producir daños al instrumento y al equipo en
prueba.
