1.
Overview
This multimeter is characterized by a compact rugged construction with
protective holster and stand. The LCD Screen with 16mm display gives clear
readings even in low light when the back light can be switched on. Features
include sophisticated A/D converter in conjunction with overload protection.
Measures: DC & AC voltage, DC current Resistance and Temperature.
Tests: Continuity, Diode forward bias and Transistor hFE gain. Includes standard
probe test leads as well as temperature probe leads.
Before use you will need to fit a 9V PP3 battery (not supplied) in the compartment
located on the back of the meter. To open the compartment remove the cross
headed screw from the lid and lever open, clip the terminal studs over the battery
terminal caps, close the compartment lid and screw tightly shut.

3. Safety Information
3-1 This meter is designed according to IEC-1010 for electronic measuring
instruments with an over-voltage category (CAT II) and pollution 2
3-2 Follow all safety and operating instructions to ensure that the meter is used
safely and is kept in good operating condition.
3-3 Safety symbols:
important safety information, refer to the operating manual.
Danger - high voltage.
Double insulation (protection Class II)
4. User Precautions
4-1 For safe use of the meter, use only the test leads supplied. If your test leads
are damaged make sure they are replaced with leads of the same quality and
specification.
4-2 Always use the meter with the blue holster in place.
4-3 Always check that the range switch is set to the correct position for the test
being made.
4-4 Do not exceed the maximum inputs shown on the dial or in these instructions.
Exceeding set inputs increases the chance of electric shock and can damage
your meter.
4-5 When measuring TV sets or switched power, avoid high voltage components
and high output pulse supplies.
4-6 During measurement be careful not to alter the Range switch position
accidentally.
4-7 Take extra care to avoid bodily contact with live surfaces when measuring
high voltage (especially more than DC 60V & AC 30V).
4-8 The Protection fuse should only be replaced with a fuse of the same type
and specification.
