Safety Information

To avoid possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury, please read all safety information before you use the product.

• Do NOT exceed the “maximum value” indicated in the
• Examine the connection of the test leads and the insulation of the product before measuring voltage higher than 36V DC or 25V
• Disconnect the test leads from the circuit before changing the mode。
• Misuse of mode or range can lead to hazards, be cautious. “OL” will be shown on the display when the input is out of range.

      (2) Measure AC/DC Current
      1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and connect the red test lead to the Terminal or the 10A Terminal (choose based on the value of current) ;
      2. Turn the rotary switch to the 400μA~10A Mode;
      3. Break the circuit path to be measured. Then connect the test leads across the break and apply power;
      4. Read the measured current on the display.
      * Caution:
      a. Do not measure current that exceeds the MAX Value as indicated in the Specifications;
      b. Use the 10A Terminal and the Current-10A Mode when you are measuring an unknown current. Then switch to the other terminals if necessary.

Do not input voltage exceeds 36V DC or 25V AC when you are at the setting of measuring current.

Measure AC/DC Voltage

1. 1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and connect the red test lead to the Terminal;
   2. Turn the rotary switch from 400mV~600V range;
   3. Touch the probes to the correct test points of the circuit to measure the voltage;
   4. Read the measured voltage on the

*Caution:

1. Do not measure voltage that exceeds the MAX Value as indicated in the Specifications;
2. Do not touch high voltage circuit during

Measure NCV

1. 1. Turn the rotary to NCV Mode;
   2. Hold the product and move it around, the built-in beeper will beep when the inner sensor detects AC voltage The stronger the voltage is, the quicker the beeper beeps
   3. Put the red probe into the terminal, then use the black probe to touch the Live line and Neutral line of the Main supply. You can judge the L-line or N-line by the beeps, If you can hear the strong beeps, this is the L-line, or it’s a N-line.

Measure Resistance

1. 1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and connect the red test lead to the Terminal;
   2. Turn the rotary switch from 400Ω~40MΩ range, and the display will show “OL”;
   3. Touch the probes to the desired test points of the circuit to measure the resistance;
   4. Read the measured resistance on the

*Caution:

1. Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before you test
2. Do not input voltage at the Resistance

Measure Continuity

1. 1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and connect the red test lead to the Terminal;
   2. Turn the rotary switch from 400Ω~40MΩ range,
   3. Touch the probes to the desired test points of the circuit;
   4. The built-in beeper will beep when the resistance is lower than 50Ω, which indicates a short

*Caution:

1. Do not input voltage at the Continuity

Measure Diode

1. 1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and connect the red test lead to the Terminal;
   2. Turn the rotary switch to the diode Mode;
   3. Connect the red probe to the anode side and the black probe to the cathode side of the diode being tested;
   4. Read the forward bias voltage value on the display;
   5. If the polarity of the test leads is reversed with diode polarity or the diode is broken, the display reading shows “OL”.

*Caution:

1. Do not input voltage at the Diode
2. Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before you test

Measure Capacitance

1. 1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and connect the red test lead to the Terminal;
   2. Turn the rotary switch to the ;
   3. Connect the red probe to the anode side and the black probe to the cathode side of the capacitor being tested;
   4. Read the measured capacitance value on the display once the reading is stablized.

*Caution:

1. Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before you test

Measure Frequency

1. 1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and connect the red test lead to the Terminal;
   2. Turn the rotary switch to the Frequency Mode;
   3. Touch the probes to the desired test points of the circuit;
   4. Read the measured frequency value on the

*Caution:

1. The Frequency Mode only applies to measure high frequency with low

Auto Power Off

1. The product automatically powers off after 15 minutes of inactivity;
2. The built-in beeper beeps 5 times 1 minute before power off;
3. To restart the product, press SELECT button;
4. To disable the Auto Power Off function, hold down the SELECT button when turning on the product, you will hear five beeps if you have successfully disabled the
