DIGITAL MULTIMETER OPERATION MANUAL
1. INTRODUCTION
This instrument is a high performance stability, battery operated, 3½ digital, 25mm high
character jumbo LCD reading to 1999 multi-meter with the function of measuring DC and
AC voltage, DC and AC current, Resistance and Capacitance, Diode and Continuity test,
data hold. The Dual-slop A/D converter uses CMOS technology for auto-zero, polarity
selection and over-range indication. Full overload protection is provided. Because of its
outstanding features, it is most suitable for use in production line, lab, R & D, maintenance
and repair work.
2. SAFETY NOTE
The meter meets the standards of IEC1010. Read the operation manual carefully before operation.
2-1
.
Do not input limit over-ranged.
2-2
.
The voltage below 36V is safety. To avoid electric shock, check whether the test leads
are connected correctly, whether the insulation is good when measuring over 36DCV or
25ACV.
2-3
.
Remove the test leads when changing function and range.
2-4
.
To select correct function and range, beware of error operation.
;
2-5
.
Do not operate the meter if battery case and back cover is not fixed.
2-6
.
Do not input voltage when measuring resistance.
2-7
.
Remove test leads from test point and turn off the power before replacing battery and fuse.

under tested, the polarity and voltage of the point which red lead connect will display on
LCD.
NOTE:
1.If the measured voltage is unsure beforehand, should set the range knob to the highest
range, then, switch to a proper range according to the displayed value.
2.If LCD displays “1”, it means over range, should set the range knob to a higher range.

or
insert the red one to “10A” jack
(
max. 10A
)
.
