SAFETY INFORMATION
The following safety information must be observed to insure maximum
personal safety during the operation of this meter:
Ÿ Do not use the meter if the meter or test leads look damaged, or if
you suspect that the meter is not operating properly.
Ÿ Never ground yourself when taking electrical measurements. Do not
touch exposed metal pipes, outlets, fixtures, etc., which might be at
ground potential. Keep your body isolated from ground by using dry
clothing, rubber shoes, rubber mats, or any approved insulating
material.
Ÿ Turn off power to the circuit under test before cutting, unsoldering,
or breaking the circuit. Small amounts of current can be dangerous.
Ÿ Use caution when working above 60V DC or 30V AC RMS, such
voltages pose a shock hazard.
Ÿ When using the probes, keep your fingers behind the finger guards
on the probes
Ÿ Measuring voltage which exceeds the limits of the multimeter may
damage the meter and expose the operator to a shock hazard.
Always recognize the meter voltage limits as stated on the front of
the meter.
Ÿ Never apply voltage or current to the meter that exceeds the
specified maximum:

operating device indicates that the operator must
refer to an explanation in the Operating Instructions
to avoid personal injury or damage to the meter.
!
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.

WARNING
This WARNING symbol indicates a potentially hazardous
situation, which if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
CAUTION
This CAUTION symbol indicates a potentially hazardous
situation, which if not avoided, may result in damage to
the product.
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 earth ground exceeds (in this

OPERATION
1. ALWAYS turn the function switch to the OFF position when the
meter is not in use. This meter has Auto OFF that automatically
shuts the meter OFF if 15 minutes elapse between uses.
2. If “OL” appears in the display during a measurement, the value
exceeds the range you have selected. Change to a higher range.
AUTO RANGING/MANUAL RANGE SELECTION
When the meter is first turned on, it automatically goes into Auto
ranging. This 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 key. The “AUTO” display indicator will turn off or
select diode /beeper, AC/DC Clamp
2. Press the RANGE key to step through the available ranges until you
select the range you want.
3. To exit the Manual Ranging mode and return to Auto ranging, press
and hold the RANGE key for 2 seconds.
MAX/MIN
Note: When using the MAX/MIN function in Autoranging mode, the
meter will “lock” into the range that is displayed on the LCD when
MAX/MIN is activated. If a MAX/MIN reading exceeds that range, an
“OL” will be displayed. Select the desired range BEFORE entering
MAX/MIN mode.
1. Press the MAX/MIN key to activate the MAX/MIN recording
mode. The display icon "MAX" will appear. The meter will display
and hold the maximum reading and will update only when a new
“MAX” occurs.
2. Press the MAX/MIN key again and the display icon "MIN" will
appear. The meter will display and hold the minimum reading and
will update only when a new “MIN” occurs.
3. To exit MAX/MIN mode press and hold the MAX/MIN key for 2
seconds
DISPLAY BACKLIGHT
The BACK LIGHT BUTTON is used to turn the back light ON. Push the
BACK LIGHT BUTTON again to turn the back light OFF.
HOLD: The hold function freezes the reading in the display.
Press the HOLD key momentarily to activate or to exit
the HOLD function.
RELATIVE
ZERO BUTTON: For convenient readings comparison & offset
RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under
test and discharge all capacitors before taking any resistance
measurements. Remove the batteries and unplug the line cords.
1. Set the function switch to the Ω position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (COM) jack
and the red test lead banana plug into the positive Ω jack.
3. Touch the test probe tips across the circuit or part under test. It is
best to disconnect one side of the part under test so the rest of the
circuit will not interfere with the resistance reading.
4. Read the resistance in the display. The display will indicate the
proper decimal point, value and symbol.
CONTINUITY CHECK
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, never measure continuity on
circuits or wires that have voltage on them.
1. Set the function switch to the position.
2. Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative (-) jack (COM)
and the red test lead banana plug into the positive (+) jack (Ω).
3. Press the button until the symbol appears in the display.
4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit or wire you wish to check.
5. If the resistance is less than approximately 100Ω, the audible
signal will sound. The display will also show the actual resistance.
