1) Insert the testleads as showing in the above figure;
2) Turn the rotary switch to the Volt or millivolt range;
3) Connect the testleads across with the object being measured;
4) The measured value shows on the display;
5) If needed, press
to switch to manual ranging, press again to
change the range selected. Hold down the same button to return
to auto ranging.
B. MEASURING AC VOLTAGE
Warning
• For safety, be sure to measure a known voltage befre using
the instrument on an unknown circuit.
• To avoid electric shock, fire, personal injury or damages to the Meter
from electric shock, please do not attempt to measure voltages
higher than 1000V.
• Risk of Electrocution - The probe tips may not be long enough
to contact the live parts inside some 240V outlets for appliances
because the contacts are recessed deep in the outlets. As a result,
the reading may show 0 volts when the outlet actually has voltage
on it. Make sure the probe tips are touching the metal contacts
inside the outlet before assuming that no voltage is present.
