Warning
To avoid false readings, which could lead to possible electric shock or personal injury, replace the
battery as soon as the low battery indicator (
Do not use the meter in a manner not specified by this manual or the safety features provided by the
meter may be impaired.
When in Relative Mode or in Data Hold mode, the symbol (
be used because hazardous voltage may be present.
To avoid electric shock, do not touch any naked conductor with your hand or skin, and do not ground
yourself while using the meter.
Comply with local and national safety requirements when you work in hazardous locations. Use
correct protective equipment, as required by local or national authorities, when you work in
hazardous areas.
Remaining endangerment:
When an input terminal is connected to dangerous live potential, it is to be noted that this potential
can occur at all other terminals!
CAT III -Measurement Category III is for measurements performed in the building installation.
Examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit breakers, wiring, including cables, bus-
bars, junction boxes, switches, socket outlets in the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial
use and some other equipment, for example, stationary motors with permanent connection to the
fixed installation. Do not use the meter for measurements within Measurement Categories IV.
Caution
To avoid possible damage to the meter or to the equipment under test, follow these guidelines:
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before testing resistance, diode, continuity and
temperature.
Use the proper terminals, function and range for your measurements.
Before measuring current and temperature, check the meter's fuse and turn off the power to the
circuit before connecting the meter to the circuit.
Before rotating the rotary switch to change functions, disconnect test leads from the circuit under
test.
Remove test leads from the meter before opening the meter case or the battery cover.
