SAFETY STATEMENTS
WARNING
• Do not operate this device if you do not have the correct knowledge. Incor-
rect operation can cause damage, shock, injury or death to persons.
• Do not start a measurement before setting the function switch to the cor-
rect position. Failure to follow this warning can cause damage to the instru-
ment and injury to persons.
• Do not change to the resistance function when measuring voltage.
• Do not use the device if the test leads or the device show signs of damage.
• Use extreme care when measuring voltages > 25 V AC RMS or 35 V DC.
• Do not perform diode, capacitance, or continuity tests before removing
power from the circuit or device under test.
• Allow time for large capacitors to fully discharge before taking capacitance
measurements.
This symbol, adjacent to another symbol or terminal, indicates that
the user must refer to the manual for further information.
This symbol, adjacent to a terminal, indicates that, under normal use,
hazardous voltages may be present.
Double insulation.
• This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. See the
User Manual for the full FCC Compliance text. This applies also
to Industry Canada Compliance.

VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS
WARNING
Use extra care when measuring voltages > 35 V DC and 25 V AC RMS.
1. Set the function switch to the V,mV, or LoZ position.
2. Insert the black probe into the COM terminal and red probe into
the Vterminal.
3. Short press the MODE button to manually select AC or DC.
4. Connect the probes in parallel to the part under test.
5. Read the voltage value on the display.
RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS
WARNING
Do not measure resistance on a powered circuit or component.
1. Set the function switch to the Ωposition.
2. Insert the black probe into the COM terminal and red probe into
the Ωterminal.
3. Short press MODE to manually select resistance Ω.
4. Touch the tips of the probes across the circuit under test.
5. Read the measurement on the display.
CONTINUITY TESTS
WARNING
Do not measure continuity on a powered circuit or component.
1. Set the function switch to the Continuity position.
2. Insert the black probe into the COM terminal and red probe into
the Ωterminal.
#NAS100161; r. AC/92816/92816; en-US 4

3. Short press MODE to select continuity manually.
4. Touch the tips of the probes across the circuit under test.
5. If the resistance is 30 ± 5 Ω, or lower, the meter will beep.
DIODE TESTS
WARNING
Remove power to the device under test before taking diode measurements.
1. Set the function switch to the position.
2. Insert the black probe into the COM terminal and red probe into
the Ωterminal.
3. Short press MODE to manually select diode .
4. Touch the tips of the probes across the diode. There is no need
to take two measurements of opposing polarity. The DM93–2
sends a bidirectional signal to the diode for convenience.
5. If the diode is good, a voltage reading will display. If the diode is
bad, the display will show O.L. or bAd.
CAPACITANCE MEASUREMENTS
WARNING
Remove power to the capacitor or circuit under test and fully discharge ca-
pacitors before taking measurements.
1. Set function switch to the capacitance position .
2. Short press MODE to select capacitance mode manually.
3. Insert the black probe into the COM terminal and the red probe
into the Ωterminal.
4. Touch the tips of the probes across the part under test.
5. Read the capacitance value on the display.
THERMOCOUPLE TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS
WARNING
The supplied Type K thermocouple cannot be used to measure temperature
over the entire range of the DM93–2. The range is printed on the label sup-
plied with the thermocouple. If higher temperature range measurements are
intended, you must obtain a Type K thermocouple rated for the intended
measurement range.
#NAS100161; r. AC/92816/92816; en-US 5

1. With the meter OFF, connect a Type K thermocouple to the me-
ter’s input terminals (negative lead to the COM terminal and the
positive lead to the terminal).
2. Set the function switch to the position .
3. Short press MODE to select the desired temperature units
manually.
4. Press the thermocouple tip to the surface under test and read
the temperature on the display. Allow time for the measurement
to stabilize.
5. To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the thermocouple leads
before turning the function switch to another position.

WARNING
Do not measure current on a circuit when voltage is >1000 V.
Do not measure current on a circuit when current is >10 A.
1. Set the function switch to the position.
2. Insert the black probe into the COM terminal and the red probe
into the Aterminal for high current measurement or the mA ter-
minal for low current measurements.
3. Short press MODE to choose AC, DC, or AC+DC
measurements.
