•
Replace the fuse (ceramic – high breaking capacity 5x20mm F10A/250V)
•
Place the PCB back. Make sure the LCD connection, buttons and jacks are lined
up. Tighten the 4 screws.
•
Close the housing and tighten the 3 screws. Put the protective cover back.

Battery (inside meter)
•
User manual
•
Adaptor socket for easily measuring transistors and capacitors, and to connect
thermocouples.
•
Cover: protects the meter and provides a comfortable grip. For positioning
features, refer to the images on page
2
of this manual.
A & B
: Use either the small or large foldable stand
C
: Use the small stand to hang the meter to a wall: remove the small stand and
insert it in the slots near the top of the cover. Drive a nail in the wall and
hang the meter.
D
: The test probes can be stored in the two provisions at the back.

Operating instructions
Risk of electric shock during operation.
Be very careful when
measuring live circuits.
Before measuring, always make sure the meter and/or test probes
are not damaged and verify the connections, selected function and
range.
•
Never exceed the limit value for protection. This limit value is listed separately
in the specifications for each range of measurement.
•
Do not touch unused terminals when the meter is linked to a circuit which is
being tested.
•
Only use the meter in the indicated overvoltage/installation category. Never
measure voltages that might exceed the indicated category values.
•
Disconnect the test leads from the tested circuit before rotating the range
selector in order to change functions.
•
When carrying out measurements on a TV set or switching power circuits,
always remember that high amplitude voltage pulses at the test points might
damage the meter.
•
Always be careful when working with voltages above 60Vdc or 30Vac rms. Keep
your fingers behind the probe barriers at all times during measurement.
•
Do not measure current in circuits with voltages > 250V
•
Never perform resistance, diode, transistor or continuity measurements on live
circuits. Make sure all capacitors in the circuit are discharged.
•
Automatic power-off:
The device will be deactivated automatically when the FUNCTION and RANGE
switch has not been used for 15 minutes. This energy-saving feature extends
the life of your battery.
