Safety Precautions
1. Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or
death. Read and understand this users manual before operating
the meter.
2. Make sure any covers or battery doors are properly closed and
secured.
3. Always disconnect the test leads from any voltage source before
replacing the battery or fuses.
4. Do not exceed the maximum rated input limits.
Input Limits
Function Maximum Input
V DC or V AC 600V DC/AC
uA , mA AC/DC 200mA/500V fast acting
Resettable Fuse
Resistance, Diode &
Continuity Test
600V DC/AC
5. Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are
greater than 25VAC rms or 35VDC. These voltages are
considered a shock hazard.
6. Always discharge capacitors and remove power from the device
under test before performing Diode, Resistance or Continuity
tests.
7. Remove the battery from the meter if the meter is to be stored for
long periods.

Operation
AC/DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS
CAUTION: Do not measure AC/ DC voltages if a motor
On the circuit is being switched ON or OFF. Large voltage
surges may occur that can damage the meter.
1. Set the function switch to the green V position.
2. Press the MODE button to indicate “DC” or “AC” on the display.
3. Touch the black test probe tip to the negative side of the circuit.
Touch the red test probe tip to the positive side of the circuit.
4. Read the voltage in the display
DC/AC CURRENT MEASUREMENTS
1. Set the function switch to the µA/mA position.
2. For current measurements up to 2000uA DC/AC, set the function
switch to the mA position
3. Press the MODE button to indicate “DC” / “AC” on the display.
4. Remove power from the circuit under test, then open up the
circuit at the point where you wish to measure current.
5. Touch the black test probe tip to the negative side of the circuit.
Touch the red test probe tip to the positive side of the circuit.
6. Apply power to the circuit.
7. Read the current in the display
NOTE: 0.2A/500V fast acting Resettable Fuse current inputs
and Overload protection on mA, µA ranges. No replacement
required.

7
RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT
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. Press the MODE button to indicate Ω on the display.
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
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 Ωposition.
2. Press the MODE button to indicate on the display
3. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit or wire you wish to check.
4. If the resistance is less than approximately 150Ω, the audible
signal will sound. If the circuit is open, the display will indicate
“OL”.
DIODE TEST
1. Set the function switch to the Ωposition.
2. Press the MODE button to indicate on the display.
3. Touch the test probes to the diode under test. Forward voltage
will typically indicate 0.400 to 0.700V. Reverse voltage will indicate
“OL”. Shorted devices will indicate near 0V and an open device
will indicate “OL” in both polarities

8
Non-Contact AC Voltage Measurements
1. Touch the probe tip to the hot conductor or insert into the hot side
of the electrical outlet.
2. If AC voltage is present, the detector light will illuminate.
NOTE: The conductors in electrical cord sets are often twisted.
For best results, rub the probe tip along a length of the
cord to assure placing the tip in close proximity to the
live conductor.
NOTE: The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static
electricity or other sources of energy may randomly trip
the sensor. This is normal operation
Hold Button
The Data Hold function allows the meter to “freeze” a measurement
for later reference
3. Press the “DATA HOLD” button to “freeze” the display, the
“HOLD” indicator will appear.
4. Press the “DATA HOLD” button to return to normal operation.
Flashlight
Press and hold the top button to turn the flashlight on. Release the
button to turn the flashlight off.
AUTO POWER OFF
The auto off feature will turn the meter off after 15 minutes.
WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. Before use, always
test the Voltage Detector on a known live circuit to
verify proper operation

REPLACING THE BATTERY
1. Remove the bottom cover and secure the screw.
2. Replace old battery with fresh Two 1.5V AAA type battery.
3. Replace the bottom cover and secure the screw.
