Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or electrical shock.

Voltage Measurement Safety Information


When performing live voltage measurements, you must do the following:
■ Verify the controls are in the off position so that the appliance does not start when energized.
■ Allow enough space to perform the voltage measurements without obstructions.
■ Keep other people a safe distance away from the appliance to prevent potential injury.
■ Always use the proper testing equipment.
■ After voltage measurements, always disconnect power before servicing.
