OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
TURN UNIT ON
Press and hold the power button
4
for ½ second, then release.
Listen for single-beep sound and watch for the green LED
2
to
illuminate.
TURN UNIT OFF
Press and hold the power button
4
for ½ second. Listen for a double-beep
sound and watch for the “power on” green LED
2
to
turn off.
SILENT MODE
The tester can be operated with only visual indication of voltage. With the
tester powered off, press and hold the power button
4
until the green LED
2
illuminates, then release.
SYSTEM SELF-TEST
The “power on” green LED
2
visually confirms battery sufficiency, system
integrity, and operation/active mode.
CHECKING FOR THE PRESENCE OF AC VOLTAGE:
Prior to use, test on known live circuit to verify tester functionality. Place tip
1
of the tester near an AC voltage source. When 50V to 1000V voltage is detected,
the tester will emit a high-pitched continuous beep, and the red LED
2
will
illuminate.
AUTO POWER-OFF
After 4 minutes of non-use, the tester automatically powers off to conserve
battery life.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Should one of the following scenarios occur, the batteries must be replaced:
SCENARIO 1: When powering on the tester: The “power on” LED in the tip
of the tester changes from a steady green to a blinking green and a series of
beeping sounds is generated, the tester then turns off.
SCENARIO 2: When operating the tester: The LEDs dim and the tone fades.
To replace the batteries:
1. Press the locking tab
6
inward and remove the battery cap
5
.
2. Remove and recycle the two spent AAA batteries.
3. Install two new AAA batteries, with the positive (+) side facing into
the tester as shown
7
.
4. Slide the battery cap onto the tester until it snaps back into place.
CAUTION
• DO NOT attempt to repair this tester. It contains no serviceable parts.
• DO NOT expose tester to extremes in temperature or high humidity.
SYMBOLS ON TESTER
Risk of danger. Important information: It is important that users
of this tester read, understand, and follow all warnings, cautions,
safety information, and instructions in this manual before operating
or servicing this tester. Failure to follow instructions could result in
death or serious injury.
Risk of electric shock.
Read instructions.
Double insulated.
CAT
IV
For measurements performed at the source of low-voltage
installation and outside lines.
WARNINGS
To ensure safe operation and service of the tester, follow these instructions.
Failure to observe these warnings can result in severe injury or death.
• It is important that users of this tester read, understand, and follow all warnings,
cautions, safety information, and instructions in this manual before operating or
servicing this tester. Failure to follow instructions could result in death or serious injury.
• Risk of electric shock and burn. Contact with live circuits could result in death or serious injury.
• Use caution with voltages above 30V AC as a shock hazard may exist.
• A blinking or steady red glow and an audible beep indicate voltage present. If no
indication, voltage could still be present.
• Before and after each use, verify operation by testing a known working circuit that is
within the rating of this unit.
• Never assume neutral or ground wires are de-energized. Neutrals in multi-wire branch
circuits may be energized when disconnected and must be retested before handling.
• The tester WILL NOT detect voltage if:
• The wire is shielded.
• The operator is not grounded or is otherwise isolated from an effective earth ground.
• The voltage is DC.
• The tester MAY NOT detect voltage if:
• The user is not holding the tester.
• The user is insulated from the tester with a glove or other materials.
• The wire is partially buried or in a grounded metal conduit.
• The tester is at a distance from the voltage source.
• The field created by the voltage source is blocked, dampened, or otherwise interfered with.
• The frequency of the voltage is not a perfect sine wave between 50 and 500Hz.
• The tester is outside of operation conditions (listed in Specifications section).
• Operation may be affected by differences in socket design and insulation thickness and
type; tester may not be compatible with some types of standard or tamper resistant (TR)
electrical outlets.
• In bright light conditions, the LED visual indicators will be less visible.
• Do not use if “power on” LED is not illuminated.
• Do not use if tester appears damaged or if the tester is not operating properly. If in
doubt, replace the tester.
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage as marked on the tester (1000 volts AC).
• Do not apply to uninsulated hazardous live conductors.
• Detection above 50V is specified under “normal” conditions as specified below. The tester
may detect at a different threshold at different conditions, or may not detect at all unless:
• The tip of the tester is within 0.25" of an AC voltage source radiating unimpeded.
• The user is holding the body of the tester with his or her bare hand.
• The user is standing on or connected to earth ground.
• The air humidity is nominal (50% relative humidity).
• The tester is held still.
• Always wear approved eye protection.
• Comply with local and national safety requirements.
• If this product is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, protection
provided by the product may be affected.
