CAUTION
To avoid possible damage to the meter or to the equipment under
test, follow these guidelines:
•
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage
capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or
capacitance.
•
Use the proper terminals, function, and range for your
measurements.
•
Before measuring current, check the meter's fuses and turn
power OFF to the circuit before connecting the meter to the
circuit.
•
Before Function/Range switch to change functions,
disconnect test leads from the circuit under test.
•
Before attempting to insert transistors for testing, always be
sure that the test leads have been disconnected from any
measurement circuits.
•
Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the Meter
case.
MAINTENANCE
•
Before opening the case, always disconnect the test leads
from all live circuits.
•
For continue protection against fire, replace fuse only with the
specified voltage and current ratings: F 250mA/250V (Fast
Blown) ø5 x 20 (F2A/250V (Fast Blown) ø5 x 20 for 600.524)
•
Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild
detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
