2)   If “1” is shown on the LCD, it means the Meter
      is overloaded, then set the measuring range
      to higher.
3)   “

” means the maximum input current is 200mA,

      overload will cause the burn of fuse.  10A range
      has 10A/250V fuse protection

C-4 Measuring AC Current

1)   Press down     /     button to display “AC “on
      LCD.  If     +    /      button has not been
      pressed down, it means the measuring value
      is the sum of Direct and Alternate Current (
      +    ).  While    +    /     has been pressed
      down, it means the measuring value is a pure
      alternate current effective value.(TRMS)
2)   Connect the black test lead to “COM” jack.
      When measuring 200mA or below, connect
      the red test lead to “mA” jack.  When measuring
      10A or below, connect the red test lead to
       “10A” jack.
3)   Set the rotary switch to “A    ”
4)   Connect the test leads in series with the object
      to be measured.

Caution

1)   Please refer to “DC Current Caution” 1, 2, 3.
2)   The input value should be 10% more
      than the selected ranges to fulfill the accuracy
      requirement.
