Operating Instructions

CAUTION: Read, understand and follow Safety Rules and Operating Instructions in this manual before using this product.
WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. Before use, always test the Voltage Detector on a known live circuit to verify proper operation
WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. Keep hands and fingers on the body of the probe and away from the probe tip

AC VOLTAGE DETECTION

  1. Press the audible tone switch (1) to set the audible tone ON or OFF (IN: ON; OUT: OFF)
  2. Touch the probe tip (3) to the hot conductor or insert it into the hot side of the electrical outlet.
  3. If AC voltage is present, the detector light will flash (2) and the audible warning will sound (if enabled). The unit triggers when held within 0.2” (5.1mm) of a 110VAC receptacle. Higher voltages (up to 300V) trigger the alarm at approximately 4 to 6” (10.2 to 15.2cm).
    NOTE: The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity or other sources of energy may randomly trip the sensor. This is normal operation

Battery Installation

  1. Open the battery door (end cap) by gently prying up/out at the pocket clip using a small screwdriver.
  2. Insert two AAA batteries and replace the door.
