WARNING
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, follow these guidelines:
1. Do not use the meter if it is damaged. Before you use the meter, inspect the case. Pay particular
attention to the insulation surrounding the connectors,
2. Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check the test leads for
continuity. Replace damaged test leads before you use the
meter.
3. Do not use the meter if it operates abnormally. Protection may be impaired. When in doubt, have
the meter serviced.
4. Do not operate the meter around explosive gas, vapor, or dust.
5. Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the meter, between terminals or between
any terminal and earth ground.
6. Before use, verify the meters Operation by measuring a known voltage.
7. When measuring current, turn off circuit power before connecting the meter in the circuit.
8. Remember to place the meter in series with the circuit.
9. When servicing the meter, use only specified replacement parts.
10. Use with caution when working above 30V ac rms, 42V peak, or 60V de.
11. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.
12. When using the probes, keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.
13. Connect the common test lead before you connect the live test lead.
14. When you disconnect test leads, disconnect the live test lead first.
15. Remove the test leads from the meter before you open the case.
16. Do not operate the meter with the cover removed or loosened.
17. To avoid false readings, which could lead to possible electric shock or personal injury, replace the
battery as soon as the low battery indicator appears.
18. Remaining endangerment:
When an input terminal is connected to dangerous live potential it is to be noted that this
potential at all other terminals can occur!
19. CATII-Measurement Category II is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected to
low voltage installation. Do not use the meter for measurements within Measurement Categories
IM and IV.
CAUTION
To avoid possible damage to the meter or to the equipment under test, follow these guidelines:
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diode
and temperature.
Use the proper terminals, function, and range for your measurements.
Before measuring current, check the meter's fuse and turn power OFF to the circuit before
connecting the meter to the circuit.
Before rotating Function / Range switch to change functions, disconnect test leads from the circuit
under test.

2. Set the Function/Range switch to desired Q range.
3. Connect the test leads across the load to be measured.
4. Read the resistance value on the LCD.
Note: To avoid electric shock to you or damage to the meter, disconnect circuit power and discharge
all capacitors before resistance measurement.
DIODE MEASUREMENT
1. Connect the red test lead to "VmAΩ" jack and the
2. black test lead to "COM" jack.
3. Set the Function/Range switch to “ ” range.
4. Connect the red test lead to the anode of the diode to be measured and the black test lead to
cathode oufit.
5. The forward voltage drop in mV will be displayed. If the diode is reversed, only figure "1" will be
shown.
Note: To avoid electric shock to you or damage to the meter, disconnect circuit power and discharge
all capacitors before diode test.

CONTINUITY TEST
1. Connect the red test lead to "VmAΩ" jack and the black test lead to "COM" jack.
2. Set the Function/Range switch to " •)))" range.
3. Connect the test leads to the two terminals of the circuit to be tested. If the resistance is lower
than about 50Q, the built-in buzzer will sound.
Note: To avoid electric shock to you or damage to the meter, disconnect circuit power and discharge
all capacitors before continuity test.
SIGNAL OUTPUT
1. Set the Function/Range switch to" " range.
2. A test Signal will be Output between "VmAΩ" and "COM" jacks, the Output voltage is approx. 3V
p-p with 50KOhm impedance.
MAINTENANCE
Before opening the case, always disconnect the test leads from all live circuits. To continue protection
against fire, replace fuse only with the specified voltage and current ratings: F 250mA / 250V (Fast
Blown), 05 x 20mm c Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use
abrasives or solvents.
BATTERY AND FUSE REPLACEMENT
If" "appears on the LCD, it indicates that the battery should be replaced. To replace the battery,
remove the screws on the back cover, and replace the exhausted battery with a new one of the same
ratings. Reinstall the back cover and the screws. Fuse rarely needs replacement and is blown
generally as a result of operator's error. To replace the fuse (F 250mA/250V), remove the screws on
the bottom of the case, simply remove the old one, and replace it with a new one of the same ratings.
Reinstall the back cover and the screws.
