Used to select AC or DC voltage, Hz or % Duty Cycle, Ohms, Diode Test, 
Continuity or Capacitance, and °F or °C.

3.3. MAX MIN Button

1.  Press the MAX/MIN button to activate the MAX/MIN mode. The "MAX" 

indicator will appear on the LCD display. The meter will display and 
hold the maximum reading and will update when a higher "max"
