Always adhere to local and national safety codes. Use personal protective equipment (PPE) such as safety glasses and insulated gloves when working with electrical circuits. Ensure the meter is in good working condition before use. Do not exceed the maximum input ratings for any function. Disconnect power to the circuit before making connections for resistance, continuity, capacitance, or diode tests.

• CAT III 600V Rating: This meter is rated for Category III installations up to 600 Volts.
• Lelee tupu eji: Always inspect the meter, test leads, and accessories for any damage before each use. Do not use if damaged.
• Proper Function Selection: Ensure the correct function is selected for the measurement being performed.
• Onye na-akpọtụrụ Voltage (NCV) Sensor: The NCV sensor detects voltage between 40V and 600V. An illuminated red LED and audible tones indicate voltage ọnụnọ.
