1.Safety
1-1.International Safety Symbols
This symbol, adjacent to another symbol or terminal, indicates the user must refer to the
manual for further information.
This symbol, adjacent to a terminal, indicates that, under normal use, hazardous voltages
may be present.
Double Insulation
1-2.Safety Notes
• Do not exceed the maximum allowable input range of any function.
• Do not apply voltage to meter when resistance function is selected.
• Set the function switch OFF when the meter is not in use.
WARNINGS
• Set function switch to the appropriate position before measuring.
• When measuring volts do not switch to current/resistance modes.
• When changing ranges using the selector switch always disconnect the test leads from the
circuit under test.
• Do not exceed the maximum rated input limits.
CAUTIONS
• Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or death, read and understand this
user manual before operating the meter.
• Always remove the test leads before replacing the battery.
• Inspect the condition of the test leads and the meter itself for any damage before operating the
meter, repair or replace any damage before use.
• Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are greater than 25VAC rms or 35VDC,
these voltages are considered a shock hazard.
• Remove the battery if the meter is to be stored for long periods.
• Always discharge capacitors and remove power from the device under test before performing
Diode, Resistance or Continuity tests.
• Voltage checks on electrical outlets can be difficult and misleading because of the uncertainty
of connection to the recessed electrical contacts, other means should be used to ensure that
the terminals are not “live”.
• If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided
by the equipment may be impaired.

4-11.Non-Contact AC Voltage Measurement
WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. Before use, always test the Voltage Detector on a known live
circuit to verify proper operation.
1.Touch the probe tip to the hot conductor or insert into the hot side of the electrical outlet.
2.If AC voltage is present, the detector light will illuminate.
Note: The conductors in electrical cord sets are often twisted. For best results, rub the probe tip
along a length of the cord to assure placing the tip in close proximity to the live conductor.
Note: The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity or other sources of energy
may randomly trip the sensor, this is normal operation.

The AC voltage and ac current of this instrument are measured by
TRMS, True RMS measurement is different from mean measurement.
The mean measurement method can only measure the symmetric
waveform, such as sine wave.
True RMS measurements can reliably measure any irregular waveform
and obtain valid values for AC voltage or AC current.
