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 batteries.
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.
Voltage checks on electrical outlets can be difficult and misleading because of the uncertainty
of a definitive connection to the recessed electrical contacts. Other means should be used to
ensure that the outlet 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.
Do not use the Insulation resistance tester near explosive gas, vapor or dust.
When using the test leads, keep fingers away from the lead contacts. Keep fingers behind the
test lead finger guards.
Do not use the tester if its cover or any of its parts are removed.
When performing resistance tests, remove all power from the circuit under test.
When servicing the Insulation Resistance tester, use only the supplied test leads and power
adaptor.
Do not use the Insulation resistance tester if the battery indicator shows a low battery.
Do not use or store the meter in areas of high humidity, high temperature, potentially explosive
or flammable environments, or in strong magnetic fields.
Soft cloth and mild detergent should be used to clean the surface of the Insulation resistance
tester when servicing. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
Dry the Insulation resistance tester before storing if it is wet.
Remove the test leads and set the Range selector switch to the OFF position after use.
