Adapter plug connects to the DMM "V" volts input terminal and the Adapter's 

negative plug connects to the DMM "COM" (-) input terminal. Power the DMM and set 

its function switch to the mV DC range. (Use the VDC setting if mV setting is not 

available). If you are using an Auto Range DMM, disable the Auto Range function

position and observe that the red LED indicator extinguishes. If the red status LED 

does not light when the meter is switched on, replace battery.
