* Never touch the tips of the test leads or probe.
* Comply with the warning labels and other info on the equipment.
* Always start with the highest measuring range when measuring
unknown values.
* Do not subject the equipment to direct sunlight or extreme
temperatures, humidity or dampness.
* Do not subject the equipment to shocks or strong vibrations.
* Do not operate the equipment near strong magnetic fields
(motors, transformers etc.).
* Keep hot soldering irons or guns away from the equipment.
* Allow the equipment to stabilize at room temperature before
taking up measurement (important for exact measurements).
* Do not input values over the maximum range of each
measurement to avoid damages of the meter.
* Use caution when working with voltages above 35V DC or 25V
AC. These Voltages pose shock hazard.
* With a low battery, the meter might produce false reading that
can lead to electric shock and personal injury.
* Fetch out the battery when the meter will not be used for long
period.
* Periodically wipe the cabinet with a damp cloth and mid
detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
* Do not operate the meter before the cabinet has been closed
and screwed safely as terminal can carry voltage.
* Do not store the meter in a place of explosive, inflammable
substances.
* Measuring instruments don't belong to children hands.
1.1. Cleaning the cabinet
