Overview

This Operating Manual covers information on safety and
cautions. Please read the relevant information carefully
and observe all the 

Warnings

 and 

Notes

 strictly.

Warning

To avoid electric shock or personal injury, read the

"Safety Information" and "Rules for Safe Operation"
carefully before using the Meter.

The 

Model

 

UT90B

 (hereafter referred to as “the Meter”)

is a 1999 counts 3 1/2 digits multimeter with stabilized
functions, safe design, and reliable performance.

In addition to the conventional measuring function, such
as DC/AC voltage, DC/AC current, resistance, diode and
continuity, it is equipped with advanced design of charging
power through 220V AC or 12-36V AC/DC or solar energy.
With such design, the Meter can be used without battery,
therefore it will not cause chemical pollution. This is also
a highly applied digital electrical tester of good
performance with full icons display LCD, overload
protection and streamline outlook.
