IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read these instructions carefully before use and retain for future
reference.
• When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should always be
followed.
• Use the meter only as specied in this manual, or the protection provided may be
impaired.
• Do not operate the meter or use test leads if they appear damaged, or if the meter
is not operating properly.
• There are no user-serviceable parts in this product. Refer servicing to qualied
personnel.
• Always use the proper terminal, switch position and range for measurements
before connecting the meter to the circuit under test.
• Verify the meter’s operation by measuring a known voltage.
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage as marked on the meter, between the
terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
• Use caution with voltages above 30V AC RMS or 60V DC. These voltages pose a
shock hazard.
• Do not take voltage measurement if the value between the terminals and earth
ground exceed 600V.
• Disconnect the circuit power and discharge all high voltage capacitors before
testing resistance, continuity, diodes or capacitance.
• Do not use the meter around explosive gas or vapour.
• When using the test leads, keep your ngers behind the nger guards.
• Remove test leads from the meter before opening the meter case or battery door.
• Never operate the meter with the cover removed or the battery door open.
• Use only the test leads supplied or the protection may be impaired.
• Do not connect the meter to any voltage source while the rotary selector is in the
current, resistance, capacitance, diode or continuity range.
• Replace the batteries as soon as the low battery indicator appears on the display.
• Fit a full set of batteries at one time.
• Remove dead batteries from the appliance or if it is not going to be used for a long
time.
• Never mix old and new batteries together, or different types of batteries.
• Never dispose of batteries in a re, or attempt to recharge ordinary batteries.

OPERATION
Holding Readings
• Press the “HOLD/B.L” button to hold the readings while taking measurement and
the value on the display will be held.
• Press the “HOLD/B.L” button again to release the reading hold function.
SWITCHING REL
• The “REL” key is the relative value measurement communication transmission
key that acts with trigger. Pressing this key will enter into the relative value
measurement mode.
• The system will save the display value in the memory as the reference value.
When doing the measurement later, the display value will be the difference value
that the entry value deducts from the reference value.
• Pressing the “REL” key will enter into the Manual Measurement mode
automatically.
• In REL measurement status, press the key again and the REL function will be
relocked.
• Press the key in HOLD status and the Hold function will be cancelled.
• The system will save the display value in the memory as the reference value.
• When doing the measurement later, the display value is the difference that the
entry value deducts from the reference value.
• Press the “SELECT” key or use the “MODE” switch to cancel REL measurement
mode, and go back to normal mode (“RELΔ” will disappear in the LCD).
• OL triggering: Under RELΔ mode, “OL” shows when the input value is larger than
the allowed value of the measurement mode.
• Press the key again and the relative measurement function will be cancelled.
• Disable to enter RELΔ mode when “OL” shows.
• No analogue section bar function under RELΔ mode.
SWITCHING FREQUENCY OR DUTY CYCLE
• When working at the voltage or the current ranges, press the “Hz/%” button once
and the frequency of the voltage or current will be measured.
• Press the “Hz/%” button” twice and the meter will be changed in the duty range for
measuring the duty cycle of the voltage or current.
• At the same time, the meter changes into manual mode.
• Press the “Hz/%” button again and the meter will be back to the condition of the
voltage or current measuring.
Note: When working at the maximum or minimum value measuring function, the meter
can’t be changed into frequency or duty cycle measuring mode.
SWITCHING MAXIMUM OR MINIMUM VALUE
• At all ranges the “MAX/MIN” button once and the meter can be set to the
maximum value measuring mode.
• Press the button twice and the meter can be set to the minimum value measuring
mode.
• Press the button three times and the meter will revert back to normal test mode,
while the maximum and minimum value will be recorded by the chip.
• Press and hold the “MAX/MIN” button for more than two seconds and the meter
will go back to normal testing.
• Note: When measuring maximum or minimum value, the meter will be set to

10
manual mode automatically.
• When working at frequency or duty measuring function, the meter can’t be
changed into maximum or minimum value measuring mode.
SWITCHING FUNCTIONS
• The “SEL” key is a function selection key that acts with trigger.
• Pressing the key can choose the required measurement mode:
- To choose DC or AC in DC/AC status,
- To choose Diode or Buzzer in Diode/Buzzer status,
- To choose Ohm, Cap, Diode or Buzzer in Ohm/Cap/Diode/Buzzer status.
• Press the “SEL” key, then turn on the power and the ‘auto power-off’ function will
be cancelled.
• The signal “APO” disappears in the LCD and it enters into Sleep status (power-
off).
• Press the key, then power-on will have the ‘auto power-off’ function.
BACKLIGHT AND CLAMP LIGHTING BULB
• Press the “HOLD/B.L” button for two or more seconds to switch on the backlight.
The light will stay on for 15 seconds.
• When the backlight is on, press and hold the “HOLD/B.L” button for two or more
seconds to turn it off.
• At the current range, when the backlight is switched on, the clamp lighting bulb will
be turned on at the same time.
Note: The LED, which requires a larger working current is the main source of the
backlight. Although the meter is equipped with a timer set at about 15 seconds,
(meaning the light will turn off automatically after about 15 seconds), frequent use of
the backlight will shorten the life of the batteries.
• When the battery voltage is ≤3.7V, the symbol “ ” (low battery) will appear on
the LCD. When the backlight is on, even if the battery is ≥3.7V, the “ ” may
appear because of its large working current, which will cause the voltage to drop.
• In this case, you need not replace the batteries yet. Normally, the batteries can last
until the “ ” appears when the backlight is not being used.
Note: The accuracy of the measurement cannot be assured when the “ ” symbol
appears.
AUTO POWER-OFF
• If the mode switch or keys of the meter has no action within 15 minutes, the
system will power off automatically (sleep mode).
• In auto power-off status, press any key and the meter will “auto power-on”
(operation mode).
PREPARING FOR MEASUREMENT
• Switch on the power by turning the rotary selector. If the battery voltage is lower
than 3.7V, the “ ” symbol will appear, meaning the batteries should be replaced.
• The “ ” symbol shows that the input voltage or current should not exceed the
specied value in order to protect the internal circuit from damage.
• Turn the rotary selector to the required function and range to be measured.
• Connect the common test lead rst and then the charged test leads when making
connection. Take away the charged test lead rst when disconnecting.
