11. Wire to be measured

12. Marked position

13. SEL: Function selection button

14. Frequency and Relative value measurements button.

15. Measure AC/DC Voltage

16. The minimum voltage of this product is 0.8V. When the measured voltage is higher than 0.8V, the product will display the reading;

17. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and connect the red test lead to the Terminal;

18. The DC or AC voltage will be matched automatically when it’s in “ ”, press SEL to switch them when it’s in “ “;

19. Touch the probes to the correct test points of the circuit to measure the voltage;

20. Read the measured voltage on the display.

21.  Measure AC Current Only

22. Keep the probes not put in the jacks, turn power switch on;

23. Push the jaw release and center the wire within the clamp jaws (as in the picture).
