Thank you for purchasing a Sealey product. Manufactured to a high standard this product will, if used according to these instructions and
properly maintained, give you years of trouble free performance.
1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1.
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
When using this multimeter, please observe all normal safety rules concerning:
Protection against the dangers of electrical current.
Protection of the meter against misuse.
Full compliance with safety standards can only be guaranteed if used with the test leads supplied. If necessary, they must
be replaced with genuine Sealey leads with the same electrical ratings. Failure to do so will invalidate the warranty.
DO NOT use leads if damaged or if the wires are bared in any way.
1.2.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Familiarise yourself with the application and limitations of the multimeter as well as the potential hazards.
IF IN ANY DOUBT CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
USE EXTREME CAUTION when working with high voltages.
DO NOT use the meter if it is damaged. Before you use it inspect the case. Pay particular attention to the insulation
surrounding the connectors.
Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check the test leads for continuity. Replace damaged test
leads before you use the meter.
DO NOT use the meter if it operates abnormally. Protection may be impaired. When in doubt have the meter inspected by
your Sealey Authorised Dealer.
DO NOT operate the meter where explosive gas, vapour or dust is present.
DO NOT apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the meter, between the probes or between any probe and earth
ground.
Before use verify the meter's operation by measuring a known voltage.
When measuring current, turn off circuit power before connecting the meter in the circuit. Remember to place the meter in
series with the circuit.
WARNING Use caution when working with voltage above 30V ac rms, 42V peak, or 60V dc. Such voltages pose a shock
hazard.
When using the probes keep your fingers behind the finger guards.
When making connections, connect the black test lead before you connect the red test lead. When you disconnect the test
leads, disconnect the red one first.
Remove the test leads from the circuit under test before you open the back cover.
DO NOT operate the meter with the back cover removed or loosened.
To avoid false readings, which could lead to possible electric shock or personal injury, replace the button cells as soon as
the low battery indicator (
DO NOT touch any naked conductor with your hand or skin, to avoid electric shock, DO NOT ground yourself whilst
using the meter.
When a probe is connected to a dangerous live potential, it must be noted that this potential can occur at the other probe.
NOTE CAT II measurement category is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected to low voltage
installations. (Examples are measurements on household appliances, portable tools and similar equipment.) DO NOT use
the meter for measurements within Measurement Categories III and IV.
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before testing resistance, diode or continuity.
Use the proper function for your measurements.
Before measuring current, check the meter's fuse and turn off power to the circuit before connecting the meter to the
circuit.
Before moving the function switch or rotating the range switch, disconnect the test leads from the circuit under test.
The user shall ensure that test probes are correctly selected in order to prevent danger. Probes shall be selected
to ensure that adequate barriers guard against inadvertent hand contact with live conductors under test and that
probes have minimal exposed probe tips. Where there is a risk of the probe tip short circuiting with other live
conductors under test, it is recommended that the exposed tip length shall not exceed 4mm.
NOTE:The warnings, cautions and instructions referred to in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions and
situations that may occur. It must be understood that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be
built into this product, but must be applied by the operator.
