Input Protection: 

0.25A, 250V fuse (for the measurement range below 200mA)

 

                              10A, 250V fuse

 (for the measurement range below 10A) 

Measuring method 

(1)  Insert  the  red  test  lead  into  the  μA  mA  or  10A  terminal  and  black  test  lead  into  the  COM 

terminal. (Select 10A for high current, and select μA or mA for low current less than 1A) 

(2)  Press

I-

key  to  select  DC current  measurement,  and  make  test  lead  series  connected  with 

object being measured. 

(3) Press

or 

key , and select current measuring range manually. Press 

AUTO

key to lock automated measuring range

.(

AUTO

key enables you to switch ranges between uA 

and mA. 10A range can only be selected by pressing 

【▲】

key. )

 

(4) 

If    the “Over” light on, which means the measuring current value exceeds current range, press

to select a higher range until a normal reading show up.

 

(5) Reading is shown as the measuring current on the display. 

Note:   

 

Before make device series connected with measured circuit, please turn off the power of 

circuit. 

 

Please  use  correct  terminal  when  measuring.  If  you  can’t  estimate  the  current  value, 

please start from the high range of current. 

 

Continue measurement is allowed if ≤5A; the measuring time should be ≤10 second and 

interval  time  should  ≥  15 minutes  to  meet  safe  use 

when

 

the  current  is  between

 

5A  to 

10A

 

To avoid possible damage to the device and fuse, never place the testing leads in parallel 

with any circuit or component when the leads are plugged into the current terminals. 

 

When  current  measurement  completed,  first  power  off,  then  disconnect  testing  lead 

with tested circuit and remove testing lead away from the input terminals of the Meter. 

Fuse replacement 

1. Cut off the power, disconnect the testing wire. 

2. Rotate fuse holder with screwdriver counter-clockwise to pop-up the fuse 

3. Replace fuse with the same specification
