WARNINGS

To ensure safe operation and service of the meter, follow these

instructions. Failure to observe these warnings can result in

severe injury or death.

• Before each use verify meter operation by measuring a known

voltage or current.

• Never use the meter on a circuit with voltages that exceed the

category based rating of this meter.

• Do not use the meter during electrical storms or in wet weather.

• Do not use the meter or test leads if they appear to be damaged.

• Use only with CAT IV rated test leads.

• Ensure meter leads are fully seated, and keep fingers away from

the metal probe contacts when making measurements.

• Do not open the meter to replace batteries while the probes are

connected.

• Use caution when working with voltages above 25V AC RMS or

60V DC. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.

• To avoid false readings that can lead to electrical shock, replace

batteries when a low battery indicator appears.

• Do not attempt to measure resistance or continuity on a live circuit.

• Always adhere to local and national safety codes. Use personal

protective equipment to prevent shock and arc blast injury

where hazardous live conductors are exposed.

FUNCTION BUTTONS

ON/OFF

To power ON the meter, rotate the Function Selector switch

from the OFF setting to any measurement setting. To power OFF the

meter, rotate the Function Selector switch

to either of the OFF

settings. By default, the meter will automatically power OFF after 30

minutes of inactivity. If the meter automatically powers OFF while in

a measurement setting, rotate Function Selector switch

to any

other setting (excluding the OFF settings) to power ON the meter. To

deactivate the power OFF functionality press and hold the "RANGE"

button

before powering ON from the OFF setting. When auto

power OFF is deactivated, the Auto Power Off icon will not be

visible in the display.

DATA HOLD

Press either of the Data Hold / Backlight buttons

to hold

the measurement on the display. Press again to release the display to

return to live measuring.

BACKLIGHT

Press and hold either of the Data Hold / Backlight buttons

for more than one second to turn ON the backlight. The backlight will

automatically power OFF after 3 minutes of inactivity.

RANGE

The meter defaults to auto-ranging mode . This mode

automatically determines the most appropriate measurement range

for the testing that is being conducted. To manually force the meter to

measure in a different range, use the Range button

1. Press the "RANGE" button

to manually select measurement

range ( is deactivated on the LCD). Repeatedly press the

"RANGE" button

to cycle through the available ranges, stopping

once the desired range is reached.

2. To return to auto-ranging mode, press and hold the "RANGE"

button

for more than one second ( is reactivated).

FUNCTION BUTTONS

MAX/MIN

When the "MAX/MIN" button

is pressed, the meter keeps track

of the Maximum and Minimum values and the difference between

the Maximum and Minimum values as the meter continues to take

samples.

1. When measuring, press "MAX/MIN" button

to toggle between

the Maximum value (MAX) and the Minimum value (MIN).

2. Press "MAX/MIN" button

for more than one second to return to

normal measuring mode.

NON-CONTACT VOLTAGE TESTING

Press the NCV button

to test for AC voltage using the integrated

non-contact voltage meter. Approach the conductor under test

leading with the sensing antenna

. The meter delivers visual

warning signals when AC voltage is detected.

TEST LEAD HOLDER

When working with test leads, one test probe may be mounted in the

test lead holder

to facilitate natural two-handed operation with the

clamp in one hand and a single test probe in the other.

ENGLISH

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

CONNECTING TEST LEADS

Do not test if leads are improperly seated. Results could cause

intermittent display readings. To ensure proper connection, firmly

press leads into the input jack completely.

TESTING IN CAT III / CAT IV MEASUREMENT LOCATIONS

Ensure the test lead shield is pressed firmly in place. Failure to use

the CATIII / CATIV shield increases arc-flash risk.

TESTING IN CAT II MEASUREMENT LOCATIONS

CAT III / CAT IV shields may be removed for CAT II locations. This

will allow testing on recessed conductors such as standard wall

outlets. Take care not to lose the shields.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

AC CURRENT (LESS THAN 600A)

AC Current is measured by pressing the clamp trigger

to open

the clamp

and placing it around a current-carrying wire. When

measuring, care should be taken to ensure that the clamp

completely closed with trigger

fully released, and that the wire

passes perpendicularly through the center of the clamp

in line

with the arrow markings

To measure current:

1. Rotate the Function Selector switch

to the AC current Asetting.

2. Place clamp

around wire. The current measurement will be

shown in the display.

The meter will auto-range to display the

measurement in the most appropriate range.

Disconnect test leads when measuring with the clamp.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

AC VOLTAGE (LESS THAN 1000V)

1. Insert RED test lead into VΩ jack

, and BLACK test lead into

COM jack

, and rotate function selector switch

to the

AC voltage

setting.

2. Apply test leads to the circuit to be tested to measure voltage.

The meter will auto-range to display the measurement in the

most appropriate range.

DC VOLTAGE (LESS THAN 1000V)

1. Insert RED test lead into VΩ jack

, and BLACK test lead into

COM jack

, and rotate function selector switch

to the

DC voltage

setting.

2. Apply test leads to the circuit to be tested to measure voltage.

The meter will auto-range to display the measurement in the

most appropriate range.

NOTE: If "–" appears on the LCD, the test leads are being applied to

the circuit in reverse. Swap the position of the leads to correct this.

NOTE: When in a voltage setting and the test leads are open,

readings of order mV may appear on the display. This is noise and

is normal. By touching the test leads together to close the circuit

the meter will measure zero volts.
