throughly and understand the instructions
before operating the meter.
! Keep the manual at hand so as to enable
quick reference when necessary
! Ensure that the use of the meter is in its
intended applications and follow
measurement procedures described in this
manual.
! Follow all safety and operating instructions to
ensure maximum personal safety during the
use and operation of the meter.
! Failure to follow the above instructions may
cause injury, instrument damage and/or
damage to equipment under test.
!The symbol indicated on the meter means that
the user must refer to related parts in the
manual for safe operation of the meter. Be
sure to carefully read the instructions following
each symbol in this manual.
DANGER is reserved for conditions and
actions that are likely to cause serious or fatal
injury
WARNING is reserved for conditions and
actions that are likely to cause serious or fatal
injury
CAUTION is reserved for conditions and
actions that are likely to cause minor injury or
!

DANGER
! Never use the meter to measure voltages on a
circuit above the maximum allowable input
value on any function.
! Do not exceed the maximum allowable input
of any measurement range.
! Never touch exposed wiring, connections or
any live circuit when attempting to take
measurements.
! Do not attempt to make measurements in
flammable gaseous areas, fumes, vapor or
dust. The use of the instrument in these areas
may cause sparking , which can lead to an
explosion.
! Do not attempt to use the instrument if its
surface or your hand is wet
! Never open the battery compartment cover
when making measurements.
WARNING
! Always inspect the meter and test leads for
any signs of damage or abnormality before
use. If the meter or its accessories have any
structural defects such as broken test leads,
cracked cases, exposed metal parts or the
display is not reading, do not attempt to make
measurements.
! Do not turn the function switch whilst test
leads are connected to the meter.
! Do not install substitute parts or make
modifications to the meter. Return the meter
to your distributor for repair or re-calibration.
! Ensure the meter is switch off before opening
the battery cover when replacing the battery.
! Never replace a battery if the surface of the
meter is wet or moist.

CAUTION
! Before making measurements ensure that the
function selector switch is set on the
appropriate range position.
! Always make sure that the plug of each test
lead is inserted fully into the appropriate
terminal of the meter.
! Ensure that the function selector switch is set
to the “OFF” position after use. When the
meter will not be in use for a long period of
time, place it in storage after removing the
battery.
! Do not expose the meter to direct sunlight,
extreme temperatures or moisture.
! Do not use abrasives or solvents on the meter.
To clean it use a damp cloth and mild
detergent only.
Qualified and trained service technicians should
only perform calibration and repair of the meter.

6. DATA HOLD
This is a function used to freeze the reading on
the display, ideal for later viewing.
1. Press the button once. When the Hold is
activated, the meter beeps, freezes the
reading, and displays the “HOLD” indicator on
the LCD.
2. To deactivate the “HOLD” function, press
button once, the meter will beep and the meter
will start reading new measurements.
7. PEAK HOLD
This is a function used to record the maximum
and minimum readings on the display for the
voltage and current ranges.
1. Press the button once. This will record
the “PEAK” maximum, the meter beeps, and
displays the “P MAX” indicator on the LCD.
2. Press the button again. This will record
the “PEAK” minimum, the meter beeps, and
displays the “P MIN” indicator on the LCD.
3. To deactivate the “PEAK” function, press
button for 3 seconds,the meter will beep and
the meter will start reading new measurements.
8. LCD BACKLIGHT
The backlight is ideally used in dark or dimly lit
areas.
1. Press the button for 3 seconds, and the
bright white light will come on.
2. To turn off the backlight press the button
for 3 seconds.
Note: • The use of the backlight will reduce the
battery life considerably.

9. AC TRUE RMS CURRENT MEASUREMENT
WARNING: Ensure that the test leads are
disconnected from the meter before making
current measurements.
1. Set the function switch to or or
range position, and make sure that the current
under test does not exceed the upper limit of
the measuring range you have selected.
2. Press the trigger to open up the transformer
jaws and clamp around the single conductor
under test.
3. Read the display.
Note: • During current measurements keep the
transformer jaws fully closed, otherwise this
will affect the accuracy of the
measurement.
• When large currents the transformer
jaws may buzz. This is not a fault and
does not affect the accuracy of the
reading.

10. DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT
1. Set the function switch to range
position. The meter automatically defaults to
DC Volts.
2. Insert the red test lead into the “V Ω TEMP HZ”
input terminal and the black lead to the “COM”
terminal.
3. Connect the other end of the test leads to the
circuit under test.
4. Read the display. If a “-” sign is displayed, the
red lead is the negative potential.
Note: • The meter is set to default to “Auto
Range” mode.
• Pressing the hold button will
allow the user to record the peak
maximum and minimum readings on the
AC volt range. See page 7 for further
instructions for “PEAK” Hold function.
