RT390 is designed for use with North American 3-wire grounded 120V
electrical outlets. DO NOT connect to higher voltage electrical supplies.
Prior to use, always verify tester operation by testing on a known
live and correctly wired electrical outlet.
POWER ON/OFF
Press and hold the Power/Reset button
OFF the tester. When the tester is powered ON and not connected to a circuit,
will display "OOO", "Open Hot" condition. NOTE: The tester will

NOTE: Auto-Power Off is disabled if tester is plugged into an energized circuit.
WIRING CONDITION
With the tester powered ON and inserted in the outlet, the

circuit, or, if no voltage is detected, the Wiring Condition Indicator
blink during the time-out period.
If the tester indicates that the outlet is not wired correctly,
consult a quali ed electrician.
NOTE: Conditions NOT indicated include, but are not limited to, quality of
ground, multiple hot wires, reversal of neutral and ground conductors,
and combinations of defects other than dual open neutral and ground.
NOTE: All appliances or equipment on the circuit being tested should be
unplugged to help reduce the possibility of erroneous readings.
