8. Enfòmasyon sou Sekirite

This multimeter is designed to meet safety standards for electrical measuring instruments. However, improper use can result in electric shock or damage to the meter. Always follow these safety guidelines:

• Pa aplike plis pase rated voltage between the input terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
• Pran anpil prekosyon lè w ap travay ak voltagpi wo pase 30V AC RMS, 42V pik, oswa 60V DC. Volim sa yotages poze yon danje chòk.
• Toujou dekonekte kouran sikwi a epi dechaje tout gwo vòltaj yo.tage capacitors before measuring resistance or continuity.
• Ensure the rotary switch is in the correct position for the measurement being performed.
• Never measure current on a circuit with power applied if the test leads are connected to the "VΩmA" or "10A" jacks and the rotary switch is set to a voltage or resistance function. This can blow the fuse or damage the meter.
• Pa sèvi ak mèt la si li sanble domaje oswa si fil tès yo domaje.
• Adhere to the CAT II 500V and CAT III 300V safety ratings. CAT III is for measurements in building installation (e.g., distribution boards, circuit breakers, wiring, including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches, socket-outlets in the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial use and some other equipment, e.g., stationary motors with permanent connection to the fixed installation). CAT II is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected to the low-voltage installation (e.g., household appliances, portable tools).
