INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL
ENGLISH
EN
The meter is a portable, professional measuring instrument with LCD display and backlight
for easy reading by users. Measuring range switch is operated by single hand for easy
operation with overload protection and low battery indicator. It is an ideal multifunction meter
for professionals, factories, schools, fans and family use.
The meter is used for AC current, DC current, AC voltage, DC voltage, frequency, duty
ratio, resistance, capacitance measurement, circuit connection, diode test and non-contact
voltage detection.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Warning
Be extremely careful when using this meter. Improper use of this device can result in
electric shock or destruction of the meter. Take all normal safety precautions and follow
the safeguards suggested in this manual. To exploit full functionality of the meter and
ensure safe operation, please read carefully and follow the directions in this manual. If the
equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided
by the equipment may be impaired.
This meter is designed and manufactured according to safety requirements of EN 61010-
1, EN 61010-2-032, EN 61010-2-033 concerning electronic measuring instruments with a
measurement CAT 1111000V, CAT IV 600V and pollution degree 2 and safety requirements
for hand-held clamps far electrical measurement and test.
PRELIMINARY
• When using the meter, the user must observe all normal safety rules concerning:
◦
General protection against electric shock
◦
Protection of the meter against misuse
• Please check for damage during transportation after receiving the meter.
•
lf the meter is stored and shipped under hard conditions, please confirm if the meter is
damaged.
• Probe should be in good condition. Before use, please check whether the probe insulation
is damaged and if the metal wire is bare.
• Use the probe table provided with the meter to ensure safety. lf necessary, replace the
probe with another identical probe or one with the same level of performance.
USAGE
• When using, select the right function and measuring range.
• Don’t measure by exceeding indication value stated in each measuring range.
• When measuring a circuit with the meter connected, do not contact with probe tip (metal
part).
• When measuring, if the voltage to be measured is more than 60 V DC or 30 V AC
(T-RMS), always keep your fingers behind finger protection device
• Do not measure voltage greater than AC 750V.
• In the manual measuring range mode, when measuring an unknown value, select the
highest measuring range first.
• Before rotating conversion switch to change measuring function, remove probe from the
circuit to be measured.
• Don’t measure resistor, capacitor, diode and circuit connected to power.
• During the test of currents, resistors, capacitors, diodes and circuit connections, be
careful to avoid connecting the meter to a voltage source.
• Do not measure capacitance before capacitor is discharged completely.
• Do not use the meter in explosive gas, vapor or dusty environments.
•
If you find any abnormal phenomena or failure on the meter, stop using the meter.
• Unless the meter bottom case and the battery cover are completely fastened completely,
do not use the meter.
• Don’t store or use the meter in the conditions of direct sunlight, high temperature and
high humidity.
MAINTENANCE
• Don’t try to open the meter bottom case to adjust or repair. Such operations can only be
performed by technicians who fully understand the meter and electrical shock hazard.
• Before opening the meter bottom case or battery cover, remove probe from the circuit to
be measured.
• To avoid wrong readings causing electric shock, when
appears on the meter display,
replace the battery immediately.
• Clean the meter with damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
• Power off the meter when the meter is not used. Switch the measuring range to OFF
position.
• If the meter is not used for long time, remove the battery to prevent the meter being
damaged.
REPLACING THE BATTERIES
Warning
To avoid electric shock, make sure that the test leads have been clearly move away from
the circuit under measurement before opening the battery cover.
• If the symbol
appears, it means that the batteries should be replaced.
• Loosen the screw of the battery cover and remove it.
• Replace the used battery with a new one.
• Return the battery cover and tighten the screw.
Note:
Be sure to note the battery polarity when replacing.
REPLACING TEST LEADS
Replace test leads if leads become damaged or worn.
Warning
Use meet EN61010-031 standard, rated CAT.III 1000V, or better test leads.
