SETUP GUIDE

• Putting in Batteries: Carefully place two AAA batteries into the battery box, making sure they are in the right order.
• Measure Voltage: To measure voltage, plug the black probe into the “COM” port and the red probe into the “V/©” port. Pick the right AC or DC voltage range and connect the probes to the thing you want to test.
• To measure the current, plug the black probe into the “COM” port. Put the red probe into the “V/©” port to measure current up to 200mA. Put the red probe into the “10A” port to measure up to 10A. Link the voltmeter to the circuit you want to test in series.
• To measure resistance, use the range switch to choose the right resistor range and then connect the test probes to the part you want to measure.
• Battery, Continuity, and Diode Test: For battery quality testing, continuity testing, and diode testing, follow the exact steps in the user guidebook.
• Backlight: Press the button in the top left corner to turn on the backlight, which makes things easier to see in poorly lit areas.
• Hold Function: If you press the hold button, the last number recorded will be saved so that it is easy to record and analyze.
• Overload Display: Pay attention to the “1” on the overload display to keep the multimeter and any electronics that is attached from getting damaged.
• Non-contact Voltage Measurement: To measure voltage without touching anything, follow the steps in the user guidebook.
• Make sure the test probes are properly connected to both the voltmeter and the circuit being tested to get correct results.
• Range Adjustment: To get correct measurements, use the range switch to choose the right measuring range.
• Precautions for Safety: When working with electrical systems, take care not to hurt yourself or cause damage.
• Automatic Shutdown: Make sure you know that the voltmeter will turn off by itself after a while to save battery life.
• Check for Compatibility: Make sure it works with common 4 mm banana plug devices to get more out of it.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
