WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
If the multimeter is not operating properly, check the battery
and the fuses. Then recheck the instructions in this manual
to verify correct operating procedures.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal
injury.
CLEANING THE TERMINALS
Dirt or moisture in the terminals can affect readings.
To clean the terminals:
Set the mode selection dial to OFF position and remove
the test leads from the meter.
Remove battery cover and the battery pack. Reinstall the
battery cover.
Shake out any dirt which may exist in the terminals.
Soak a new swab with alcohol.
Work the swab around in each terminal.
REPLACING THE FUSE
