Digital Multimeter Operation
Manual
I. General
This is a steady performance, high
security 3 1/2 digital multimeter. It uses LCD
with 18.9mm high figure to make the reading
clear.
The digital multimeter has the function of
measuring ACV, DCV, ACA, DCA, Resistance,
Celsius & Fahrenheit Temperature, Diode,
Continuity. The instrument also has the features
of Unit Symbol Display, Auto/Manual Range
Selection, Auto Power Offer and Alarm
Function. It adopts the directly driven 8 digits

1
microprocessor and dual-integral A/D converter,
which provide the high resolution, high
accuracy displaying driver. Because of its
outstanding functions, the instrument is an
excellent tool and most suitable for lab, factory,
maintenance and repair users.
II. Open-Package Inspection

III. Safety Note
The instrument is designed according
to IEC1010 standard (safety standard issued
by International Electro technical Committee).
Please read the following before operation.
1. Caution to avoid the electric shock
when measuring voltage higher than
36V DC, 25AC, current higher than
10mA, AC power line with inductance
load and AC power line during the
power fluctuation.
2. Before measuring, should check if the
function knob is set in the correct range
and make sure the test leads connect
reliably, link up correctly, and insulate
properly to avoid the electric shock
3. It meets the requirements of the safety

3
standard only to use the instrument with
the equipped test leads. If the test leads
are broken, should replace them by the
same type and same electric
specification test leads.
4. Do not replace the inside fuse by the
unconfirmed one. Only replace it by the
same type and specification fuse. Before
replacement, should keep the test leads
off the tested point to make sure there is
no any signal at the input terminal.
5. Do not replace the inside batteries by
the unconfirmed one. Only replace them
by the same type and specification
batteries. Before replacement, should
keep the test leads off the tested point to
make sure there is no any signal at the

4
input terminal.
6. When measuring electricity, do not
connect the body with the ground
directly, and do not touch the possible
exposed metallic terminal, output socket
or lead clamp with ground potential.
Usually use the dry cloth, rubber
overshoes, rubber cushion and other
insulated materials to keep the body
isolated with the ground.
7. Do not store and use the instrument in
high humility, high temperature,
combustible, explosive and strong
magnetic places.
8. It is possible to damage the instrument
and endanger the safety of the users
when measuring the voltage over the

5
limit. The allowed maximum voltage is
printed on the front panel of the
instrument, do not measure the value
over the standard safety voltage, do not
input the range limit specified to void
the electric shock and instrument
damage.
9. Do not measure any voltage when
connecting the test leads with the
current terminal to avoid damaging the
instrument and endangering the safety
of the users.
10. Do not try to calibrate or repair the
instrument, should operate it by the
specially trained or qualified
professional people.
11. The function/range selection knob

6
should be set in the correct range when
measuring. When switching the
function/range selection knob, keep the
test leads off the tested object to make
sure there is no any signal at the input
terminal. Do not switch the
function/range selection knob when
measuring.
12. When LCD displays “ ”, please
replace the batteries in time to make
sure the measuring accuracy.
13. Do not allow to measure the voltage
when connecting the test leads with the
current terminal!
14. Do not try to modify the inner circuit at
will to avoid damaging the instrument
and endangering the safety of the users.
