FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: How do I change the battery in the multimeter?
A: To change the battery, follow these steps:
- Turn off the multimeter and disconnect any test leads.
- Lay the multimeter face down and locate the battery compartment.
- Remove the battery cover and replace the old battery with a new one of the same type.
- Close the battery compartment securely and turn on the multimeter to check if it’s working properly.
Q: Can I use the multimeter to measure AC voltage above 600V?
A: No, it is not recommended to measure AC voltage above the specified safety rating of the multimeter to avoid damage or safety hazards.
Q: What is the significance of the Magne-GripTM holster on the 5XP-A
model?
A: The Magne-GripTM holster allows hands-free operation by M securely holding the multimeter in place while you work on tasks that require both hands.
