GUIDE FOR SAFE OPERATION
WARNING
!
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, and to avoid possible
damage to the meter or the equipment under test, adhere to the
following recommendations:
•Before using the meter inspect the case. Do not use the meter if it is damaged or the case
(or part of the case) is removed. If you can identify cracks or missing parts stop using the
meter immediately.
•Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed wires. Check test leads
continuity. Replace damaged test leads with leads that are suitable to the meter that meet
or exceed the safety requirements.
•Comply with local and national safety codes. Use personal protective equipment
(approved rubber gloves, face protection, and ame-resistant clothes) to prevent shock
and arc blast injury where hazardous live conductors are exposed.
•Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the meter, between the terminals
or between any terminal and grounding.
•Limit operation to the specied measurement category, voltage, or amperage ratings.

5OPERATING MANUAL
•Use Product-approved measurement category (CAT), voltage, and amperage rated
accessories (probes, test leads, and adapters) for all measurements.
•Use the correct terminals, function, and range for measurements.
•Before each use, verify meter operation by measuring a known voltage rst.
•Do not touch voltages >30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc.
•Do not use the meter around explosive gas, vapor, or in damp or wet environments
•The function selector should be placed in the right position before using the unit, do
not change the range/function during measurement to avoid damage to the meter or
equipment under test.
•When the meter is working at an eective voltage over 60V in DC or 30V rms in AC, special
care should be taken as there is danger of electric shock.
•Do not touch the probes to a voltage source when the test leads are connected to the
current terminals.
•Connect the common test lead before the live test lead and remove the live test lead
before the common test lead.
•Do not use a current measurement as an indication that a circuit is safe to touch. A voltage
measurement is necessary to know if a circuit is hazardous.
•Do not use the HOLD function to measure unknown potentials. When HOLD is turned on,
the display does not change when a dierent potential is measured.
•When using the test leads, ensure leads are fully seated and keep your ngers behind the
nger guards.
•To avoid electric shock, injury, or damage to the Meter, disconnect circuit power and
discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or
capacitance.
•Before measuring current, check the meters fuses’and turn o the current to be tested
before connecting the meter to the circuit. After connecting the circuit reliably, turn the
current to be tested on.
•Replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator “ ” appears. With a low battery,
the meter may produce false readings that can lead to electric shock and personal injury.
•Do not alter the meter and use only as specied, or the protection supplied by the meter
can be compromised.
•Use a soft cloth and mild detergent should to clean the surface of the meter when
performing general maintenance. No abrasives or solvents should be used in cleaning;
this is to prevent the surface of the meter from corrosion, damage and accident.
•Turn the meter o when it is not in use. Remove the batteries if the meter is not used for
an extended period of time. If the batteries are not removed, battery leakage may result.
•Repair the meter before use if the battery leaks. Battery leakage may create a shock hazard
or damage the meter.

switch between DC and AC measurement mode.
3. Connect the test leads across with the object being measured. The measured value shows on
the display.
NOTE:
•In each range, the meter has an input impedance of 10M except mV range which
input impedance is 3000M. This loading eect can cause measurement errors in high
impedance circuits. If the circuit impedance is less than or equal to 10k, the error is
negligible (0.1% or less).
•When measuring mV, you must press RANGE manually to enter mV range.
•When voltage measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection between
the testing leads and the circuit under test, then remove the testing leads from the input
terminals of the meter.

•The test leads can add 0.2 to 0.5
of error to resistance measurement.
To obtain precision readings in low-
resistance measurement, short-circuit
the input terminals beforehand, using
the relative measurement function
button REL to automatically subtract
the value measured when the testing
leads are short circuited from
the reading.
•If reading with shorted test leads is
not ≤0.5, check for loose test leads
or other reasons.
•For high-resistance measurement
(>1M), it is normal to take several
seconds to obtain a stable reading.
To obtain a stable reading, use the test
lead as short as possible or use the
included testing adaptor to carry out
measurement.
•The LCD displays OL indicating an open circuit for the tested resistor or the resistor value is
higher than the maximum range of the meter.
•When resistance measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection between
the testing leads and the circuit under test, then remove the testing leads away from the
input terminals of the meter.

CAPACITANCE MEASUREMENT
WARNING
!
To avoid possible damage to the meter and to the device under test,
disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before
measuring capacitance. Use the DC Voltage function to conrm that the
capacitor is discharged.
To measure capacitance, connect the meter as per below:
1. Connect the common test lead to COM terminal then insert the red test lead into the
VHz.
2. Set the function selector to and press BLUE button to select nF measurement mode.
• At that time, the meter will display a xed value which is the meter’s internal xed
distributed capacitance value. To ensure accuracy when measuring a small value of
capacitance, the tested value must subtract this value, REL mode can help on that.
3. Connect the test leads across with the object being measured.
The measured value shows on the display.
• For more convenience, use the included testing adaptor for measuring capacitors.
Insert the capacitor to be tested into the corresponding “+” and “-” jack of the testing
adaptor. This method is more stable and correct when testing for small values of
capacitance.
NOTE:
•It takes longer when the tested capacitor is more than 100µF
•The LCD displays OL indicating the tested capacitor is shorted or it exceeds the maximum
range.
•When capacitance measurement has been completed, disconnect all the connections
between the testing adaptor, capacitor and the meter.
