warning
• To avoid electricity shock, never perform current measurement for circuit with a voltage of
250V or higher.
• When measuring large current with 10A gear, the measurement duration in every 15 minutes shall
not exceed 30 seconds. Otherwise, damage to the instrument and the connecting lines of test leads.
1. Plug the banana plug of the black test line into the negative" COM "socket and Insert the banana plug of the red
test lead into the positive "mAmF" or "10A" socket.
2. Rotate the rotary knob to select"
" or "
" function. Then, a sign of "CURRENT" will appear on the top
of the screen to remind user that the function of current measurement is currently available.
3. Press the F3 key
(
