1. Important Safety Information
To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the test tool, read this
instruction manual first and observe the following safety precautions at a minimum
whenever working on a vehicle:
Always perform automotive testing in
a safe environment.
Wear safety eye protection that
meets safety standards.
Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test
equipment, etc. away from all
moving or hot engine parts.
Operate the vehicle in a
well-ventilated work area: Exhaust
gases are poisonous.
Put blocks in front of the drive
wheels and never leave the vehicle
unattended while running tests.
Use extreme caution when working
around the ignition coil, distributor
cap, ignition wires and spark plugs.
These components create
hazardous voltages when the engine
is running.
Put the transmission in PARK ( for
automatic transmission) or
NEUTRAL (for manual transmission)
and make sure the parking brake is
engaged.
Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for
gasoline/chemical/ electrical fires
nearby.
Don’t connect or disconnect any test
equipment while the ignition is on or
the engine is running.
Keep the tool dry and clean. Use a
mild detergent on a clean cloth to
clean the outside of the test tool,
when necessary.
When the rocker switch in the tool is
depressed battery current/voltage is
conducted directly to the tip which
may cause sparks when contacting
ground or certain circuits. Therefore
the tool should NOT be used around
flammables such as gasoline or its
vapors. The spark of an energized
tool could ignite these vapors. Use
the same caution as you would when
using an arc welder.
Warning!
KM50 is ONLY for 12-24V vehicle battery electrical systems, and should NOT be
used to test 110/220V household electric appliances; otherwise, it will be damaged.
The LED and LCD pull no more than 100 milliamp of current, therefore when using
this device as a test light or multimeter, it is safe for computer and airbag.
While performing component activation, please pay special attention: when the
instrument is powered on, if the rocker switch is pressed forward or rearward,
it means that all the battery current is being introduced from the positive or
negative pole through the probe. Please strictly follow the instructions to avoid
damage to the vehicle’s electrical component.
