9. The internal wiring of the unit should not be
tampered with or altered. Doing so will likely
the unit and increase risk of electric shock.
10. Replace the battery as soon as the battery
indicator “ ” appears. When working under a low
battery, the unit might produce false readings that can
lead to electric shock or personal injury.
11. Turn the unit off when it is not in use and take out
the battery in case it will not be used for a long time.

The Tenma 72-14630 Bench Top Digital Multimeter
features a 4 1/2 digit display with a maximum reading
of 19999. The large backlit LCD makes measurements
easy to read. The well-featured meter also provides
full range overload protection and dual power sources
(AC or DC battery). The unit can be used to test
AC/DC voltage, AC/DC current, resistance, frequency,
capacitance, temperature (Celsius), hFE transistors,
diode, and continuity test.
This operating manual includes relevant precautions and
safety information. Please read it carefully and strictly
observe all the Warnings and Safety Notes contained in
this manual.
Open the package and take out the unit. Check the
following items carefully to see if there is any missing or
damaged. If you find anything missing or damaged,
please contact your local dealer immediately.

● Test Lead 1 pair
● Short Test Lead with Alligator Clip 1 pair
● K Type Temperature Probe 1 piece
(Only applicable to test below 230

This unit is designed and produced in strict compliance
with IEC61010-1 code. As a unit with double insulation
over-voltage protection, it complies with the safety
standard contained in CAT II 1000V and Pollution
Degree II codes. Any failure to follow the operating
instruction contained in this manual may impair or void
the protection it has.
1 . Before use, the unit and test leads should be closely
inspected. If there appears to be any damage to either the
meter or test leads, do not attempt to use either. Do not use
the meter if the cover is removed, as it exposes the user to
2. If test leads are damaged, they must be replaced with
the one having identical model or electrical specifications.
3. Do not touch fingers or bare skin to any bare cables,
connectors, unused terminals, or circuits while being
tested.
4. When the meter is used at an effective voltage over 60V
in DC or 30V in AC, special care should be taken as there
is a danger of electric shock.
5. If the scope of the input value remains unknown, just
switch to the maximum range for testing.
6. No voltage or current exceeding the rated voltage or
current indicated by the unit should be applied between
test leads or between test lead and ground.
7. The rotary switch should be placed in the right position
and no changeover of range should be made during
measurement so as to prevent the damage of the unit.
8. Do not use or store the unit in an enviroment with high
temperatures, high humidity, flammable materials,
or excessive exposure to magnetic or radioactive field.
