CAUTIONS

Improperuseofthismetercancausedamage,shock,injuryordeath.Readandunderstandthisuser

manualbeforeoperatingthemeter.

Alwaysremovethetestleadsbeforereplacingthebatteryorfuses.

Inspecttheconditionofthetestleadsandthemeteritselfforanydamagebeforeoperatingthemeter.

Usegreatcarewhenmakingmeasurementsifthevoltagesaregreaterthan30VACrmsor60VDC.These

voltagesareconsideredashockhazard.

AlwaysdischargecapacitorsandremovepowerfromthedeviceundertestbeforeperformingDiode,

ResistanceorContinuitytests.

Voltagechecksonelectricaloutletscanbedifficultandmisleadingbecauseoftheuncertaintyof

connectiontotherecessedelectricalcontacts.Othermeansshouldbeusedtoensurethattheterminals

arenot"live".

Iftheequipmentisusedinamannernotspecifiedbythemanufacturer,theprotectionprovidedbythe

equipmentmaybeimpaired.

Thisdeviceisnotatoyandmustnotreachchildren’shands.Itcontainshazardousobjectsaswellassmall

partsthatthechildrencouldswallow.

Incasethedeviceisgoingtobeunusedforanextendedperiodoftime,removethebatteriesandstore

themseparately.

Expiredordamagedbatteriescancausecauterizationoncontactwiththeskin.Useprotectivegloves

whenhandling.

Donotshort‐circuitthebatteries.Donotthrowbatteriesintoafire.



Thismeterhasbeendesignedforsafeuse,butmustbeoperatedwithcaution.Theruleslistedbelowmust

becarefullyfollowedforsafeoperation.

OperatingInstructions

WARNING:Riskofelectrocution.High‐voltagecircuits,bothACandDC,areverydangerousandshouldbe

measuredwithgreatcare.

1. ALWAYSturnthefunctionswitchtotheOFFpositionwhenthemeterisnotinuse.

2. IfOLappearsinthedisplayduringameasurement,thevalueexceedstheselectedrange.

Changetoahigherrange.

3. Ifthemeterdoesnotswitchonwhenthefunctiondialisturnedtoanypositionotherthan

OFF,pleasecheckthebatteries.RefertotheBatteryInstallationsectionofthisguide.

AUTOPOWEROFF(APO)

TheAPOfeatureturnsthemeteroffafter15minutesofinactivity.TodisableAPO,holdthe

SELECTbuttonwhileturningthemeteron.Themeterwillemit5beepsindicatingthatAPOhas

beendisabled(theAPOclockiconwillnotbevisibleonthedisplay).Turnthemeteroffandthen

AUTOMATICandMANUALRange

ThemeterdefaultstoAUTORangemodewhenitisswitchedON.Inthismodethemeter

automaticallyselectsthebestrangeforthemeasurementsbeingmadeandisgenerallythebest

modeformostmeasurements.Formeasurementsituationsrequiringthatarangebemanually

selected,performthefollowing:

1. PresstheRANGEbutton.The“AUTORANGE”displayindicatorwillturnoff.

2. PresstheRANGEbuttontostepthroughtheavailableranges.

3. ToexittheManualRangingmodeandreturntoAutoranging,pressandholdtheRANGE

buttonfor2seconds.

occurs.

3. ToexitMAX/MINmodepressandholdtheMAX/MINbuttonfor2seconds.

Relativemode

Therelativemeasurementfeatureallowstheusertomakemeasurementsrelativetoastored

referencevalue.Areferencevoltage,current,etc.canbestoredwheresubsequent

measurementscanbemadeincomparisontothatstoredreferencevalue.Thedisplayedvalueis

thedifferencebetweenthereferencevalueandthemeasuredvalue.

1. Performameasurementasdescribedintheoperatinginstructions.

2. PresstheRELbuttontostorethereading;theRelativeindicator willappearonthedisplay.

3. Thedisplaywillnowindicatethedifferencebetweenthestoredandmeasuredvalue.
