DIGITAL AUTO RANGING MULTIMETER
Diode and Continuity
Range Introduction Remark
The approximate forward voltage drop
will be displayed
Open circuit voltage: approx 1.5V
1. The built-in buzzer will sound if
the resistance is less than about
30
Ω.
Open circuit voltage: approx 0.5V
Overload Protection: 250V DC/AC rms
For Continuity Test: When the resistance is betwene 30Ω and 100Ω, the buzzer may sound or may not sound. When the
resistance is more than 100Ω, the buzzer wont sound.

8) Operation
Measuring Voltage
WARNING! To avoid electrical shock and/or damage to the instrument, do not attempt to take any voltage measurements
which may exceed 600V DC or 600V AC rms. Do not apply more than 600V DC or 600V AC rms between the common
terminals and the earth ground.
1. Connect the BLACK test lead (10) to the “COM” jack (6) and the RED lead (10) to the “VΩ” jack (7).
2. Set the function switch (3) to V~ or V range. Select auto range or manual range with the “RANGE” button (2).
3. In manual range, if the voltage magnitude to be measured is unknown beforehand, select the highest range.
4. Connect the test leads (10) across the source or load to be measured.
5. Read LCD display (1). The polarity of the RED lead (10) connection will be indicated when making a DC measurement.
Note:
a) In small range, the meter may display an unstable reading when the test leads have not been connected to the load to be
measured. It is normal and will not affect the measurements.
b) In manual range mode, when the meter shows the over range symbol “OL”, a higher range must be selected.
c) To avoid damage to the meter, dont measure a voltage which exceeds 600Vdc (for DC voltage measurement) or
600Vac (for AC voltage measurement).
