Symbol Meaning
The battery is low.
Warning: To avoid false readings, which
could lead to possible electric shock or
personal injury, replace the battery as soon as
the battery indicator appears.
Indicates negative readings.
Indicator for ac voltage or current.
AC voltage and current are displayed as the
average of the absolute value of the input,
calibrated to indicate the equivalent rms value
of a sine wave.
Indicator for dc voltage or current.
AUTO
The Meter is in the Autorange mode in which
the meter automatically selects the range with
the best resolution.
