press the D-HOLD button to turn it off.
Attach the test leads to the Tester. The red lead is connected to the
V
Ω
Hz
Jack,
and the black lead is connected to the
COM
Jack. With the leads open, the display
should display the Overrange
OL
indication. Short the leads together. The Conti-
nuity beeper should sound and display should indicate about “000.0” Ohms.
Connect the test probes to the device or circuit to be tested. If the resistance is
less than 50 to 150 Ohms, the continuity beeper will sound.
The reading displayed on the LCD is an approximate indication, in Ohms, of the
resistance of the device or circuit being measured.

V
Ω
Hz
Jack,
and the black lead is connected to the
COM
Jack. With the leads open, the display
usually displays from “01.XX” to “03.XX” nF (where the X’s indicate that any number
can be displayed). This is the residual capacitance error. To “zero out” this error,
press the
REL
and DCA ZERO ADJ
button
.
The displayed reading should change
to 00.00nF, and the
REL
annunciator should appear in the display.
