Preparations for Measurement

4.1 Preparations

1. Please check the product carefully before use and confirm if there is cracks or missing items. If you have any questions, please contact the store you purchased.
2. Disconnect the test leads from the circuit before changing the mode.
3. Please note that if there are noise-generating devices around, or large temperature difference, the data may become unstable or there may be increasing errors.
4. Please note that when measuring resistance, continuity, current flows through the measured circuit will result in incorrect measurement.
5. When using this device, it may cause display differences due to external strong noise, etc. If the measurement is not available, please turn off the power and wait for a while, then turn the power on again.

Note:
The display changes irregularly under the situations where the test leads are not connected . This is caused by high input sensitivity, not a fault.
When connected to the circuit, the correct measurement can be taken after the data become stable.

Measurements

6.1 Steps for measurement

1. Confirm the measurement content in the table on the right.
2. Switch function dial according to the item to be measured.
3. Please remove test leads after measuring.
4. Turn off the power.

Caution

1. Do not confuse the item to be measured with the position of the function.
2. Do not exceed the maximum rated value of each function.
3. Do not switch functions or modes during measurement.
4. During the measurement process, hold the insulated part of the test lead and do not hold the pins of the test lead.

6.2 Auto Power Off

1. This feature prevents the battery from running out if you forget to turn off the power.
2. If the operation is not continued for about 15 minutes, the auto power off function will automatically cut off the power.
3. If you want to cancel this function, you should press and hold the SEL/NCV button and then turn it on again. It will be cancelled after five beeps.
