1. Introduction
To all residents of the European Union
Important environmental information about this product
This symbol on the device or the package indicates that disposal of the device after its lifecycle could harm
the environment.
Do not dispose of the unit (or batteries) as unsorted municipal waste; it should be taken to a specialized
company for recycling.
This device should be returned to your distributor or to a local recycling service.
Respect the local environmental rules.
If in doubt, contact your local waste disposal authorities.
Thank you for buying the DVM205AM! Please read the manual thoroughly before bringing this device into service.
If the device was damaged in transit, you should contact your dealer and postpone installation of this device.
2. Safety Precautions
• Do not use your DVM205AM if the device itself or the test leads look damaged, or if you suspect that it is not
operating properly.
• Never ground yourself when making electrical measurements. Do not touch exposed metal pipes, outlets, fixtures,
etc. which might be at ground potential. Keep your body isolated from ground by wearing dry clothing and shoes
with rubber soles and using rubber mats or other approved insulating material.
• Turn off the power to the circuit under test before cutting, unsoldering or breaking it. Small amounts of current can
be dangerous.
• Be cautious when working above 60VDC or 30VAC as such voltages pose a shock hazard.
• When using the probes, make sure to keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.
• Measuring voltage that exceeds the limits of the multimeter may damage your DVM205AM and expose the
operator to a shock hazard. Always respect the meter voltage and current limits as stated on the front of the
meter.
• Never apply voltage or current to the meter that exceeds the specified maximum:
VDC or VAC
mA DC/AC
A DC/AC
Frequency, resistance, temperature,
capacitance, pulse width, dwell period,
duty cycle, diode test, continuity, RPM
SAFETY SYMBOLS
This symbol adjacent to another symbol, terminal or operating device indicates that the operator
must refer to an explanation in this manual to avoid injury or damage to the meter.
This symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
This symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in damage
to the device.
This symbol advises the user that the terminal(s) so marked must not be connected to a circuit point
at which the voltage with respect to ground exceeds (in this case) 500V AC/DC.
This symbol adjacent to one or more terminals identifies them as being associated with ranges that
may, in normal use, be subjected to particularly hazardous voltages. For maximum safety, the meter
and its test leads should not be handled when these terminals are energized.
