Safety International Safety Symbols This symbol, adjacent to another symbol or terminal, indicates the user must refer to the manual for further information. This symbol, adjacent to a terminal, indicates that, under normal use, hazardous voltages may be present Double insulation SAFETY NOTES • Do not exceed the maximum allowable input range of any function • Do not apply voltage to meter when resistance function is selected. • Set the function switch OFF when the meter is not in use.
CAUTIONS Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or death. Read and understand this user manual before operating the meter. Always remove the test leads before replacing the battery. Inspect the condition of the test leads and the meter itself for any damage before operating the meter. Repair or replace any damage before use. Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are greater than 25VAC rms or 35VDC. These voltages are considered a shock hazard.

Operation NOTICES: Read and understand all warning and precaution statements listed in the safety section of this operation manual prior to using this meter. Set the function select switch to the OFF position when the meter is not in use. AC Current Measurements WARNING: Ensure that the test leads are disconnected from the meter before making current clamp measurements. 1. Set the Function switch to the 400 or 40A range. 2.
Resistance Measurements 1. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM terminal and the red test lead into the positive terminal. 2. Set the function switch to the Ω •))) position. 3. Touch the test probe tips across the circuit or component under test. It is best to disconnect one side of the device under test so the rest of the circuit will not interfere with the resistance reading. 4. For Resistance tests, read the resistance on the LCD display. Diode and Continuity Measurements 1.
Capacitance Measurements WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test and discharge all capacitors before taking any capacitance measurements. Remove the batteries and unplug the line cords. 1. Set the rotary function switch to the CAP position. 2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (COM) jack.Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive (V) jack. 3. Touch the test leads to the capacitor to be tested. 4.
3. Touch the Temperature Probe head to the part whose temperature you wish to measure. Keep the probe touching the part under test until the reading stabilizes (about 30 seconds). 4. Read the temperature in the display. The digital reading will indicate the proper decimal point and value. WARNING: To avoid electric shock, be sure the thermocouple has been removed before changing to another measurement function Non-Contact AC Voltage Measurements WARNING: Risk of Electrocution.
NOTE: The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity or other sources of energy may randomly cause the red indicator to light. This is normal operation. MODE BUTTON To select DC/ACV,OHM/ Diode/Continuity Data Hold Button / Backlite To freeze the LCD meter reading, press the data hold button. While data hold is active, the HOLD display icon appears on the LCD. Press the data hold button again to return to normal operation. The HOLD button also turns the Backlite on and off.
RANGE BUTTON When the meter is first turned on, it automatically goes into AutoRanging. This automatically selects the best range for the measurements being made and is generally the best mode for most measurements. For measurement situations requiring that a range be manually selected, perform the following: 1. Press the RANGE button. The “Auto Range” display indicator will turn off, The “Manual Range” display indicator will turn on 2.
