damage that will not be covered under the manufacturer's warranty.
Servicing should only be provided by an authorized service center.
• Do not use the product if it appears to be damaged or isn't
operating properly.
• Do not apply more than the specied voltage.
• Before each use, verify operation by testing a known working circuit
that is within the rating of this unit.
• Operation may be affected by differences in socket design and type.
• Low voltage mode (24V AC~1000V AC) is suitable for testing
low-voltage motors (< 90V), audio systems, arc welding machines,
underground mine lighting, cables with thick insulation, and other weak
electromagnetic AC signals.
• High voltage mode (90V AC~1000V AC) is suitable for detecting urban
electric supply and three-phase systems such as power distribution
units, electrical panels and electrical appliances.

Operating Instructions
Turning the Detector ON/OFF
Press the power button to turn the detector on. The buzzer will beep
twice and the red indicator light will illuminate indicating that the
detector is on and ready for use. The default voltage detection range is
set to High (90 to 1000VAC). Press and hold the power button again to
turn the detector off.
Turning the Flashlight ON/OFF
Press the Flashlight button to turn the built-in ashlight ON and OFF.
Please note the detector does not need to be powered on for the
ashlight to function. The ashlight will automatically turn off when the
detector is not used for 5 minutes.
AC Voltage Detection
Place the NCV sensor head near the test object or the power socket with
AC voltage. When AC voltage is detected, the red LED in the tip and
audible alarm will turn on.

High/Low Voltage Detection Modes
1. When the detector is powered on the red indicator light on the panel
will light up indicating the default voltage detection range is set to
High (90 to 1000VAC).
2. Press the power button once and the red indicator light will switch to
green indicating the detector is now in Low Voltage Mode
(24 to 1000VAC). In low voltage mode, the detector is more sensitive
to electrical interference/noise. Please only use low voltage mode
during weak electrical eld environment.
Low Battery Indicator
When the battery voltage is lower than 2.4V, the detector will automatically
turn OFF.
