RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS:
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test and
discharge all capacitors before taking any resistance measurements.
Remove the batteries and unplug the line cords.
1. Set the function switch to the Ω position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (COM) jack and
the red test lead banana plug into the positive Ω jack.
3. Touch the test probe tips across the circuit or part under test. It is best
to disconnect one side of the part under test so the rest of the circuit will
not interfere with the resistance reading.
4. Read the resistance in the display.
The display will indicate the proper decimal point, value and symbol.
CONTINUITY CHECK
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, never measure continuity on circuits or wires that
have voltage on them.
1. Set the function switch to the
2. Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative (-) jack (COM) and
the red test lead banana plug into the positive (+) jack (Ω).
3. Press the
button until the
4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit or wire you wish to check.
5. If the resistance is less than approximately 150Ω, the audible signal
will sound. The display will also show the actual resistance.
DIODE TEST
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, do not test any diode that has voltage on it.
1. Set the function switch to
2. Press the
button until the
3. I nsert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (-) jack (COM)
and the red test lead banana plug into the positive (+) jack (Ω).
4. Touch the test probe tips to the diode or semiconductor junction you
wish to test. Note the meter reading
5. Reverse the probe polarity by switching probe position. Note this reading.
6. The diode or junction can be evaluated as follows:
A. If one reading shows a value and the other reading shows OL,
the diode is good.
B. If both readings show OL, the device is open.
C. If both readings are very small or 0, the device is shorted.
NOTE: The value indicated in the display during the diode check is the
forward voltage.
FREQUENCY MEASUREMENT:
1. Set the function switch to the FREQ position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (-) jack (COM)
and the red test lead banana plug into the positive (+) jack (F).
3. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit under test.
4. Read the frequency in the display. The digital reading will indicate the
proper decimal point, symbols (Hz, kHz) and value.
User information ex art. 26 D. 49/2014
The symbol labelled on the appliance (Annex IX D. 49/2014) indicates that the rubbish is subject to "separate collection" and
it has been placed on the Italian market after the December 31, 2010.
The user must therefore assign or (have collected) the rubbish to a treatment facility according to indications by the local
administration, or hand it over to the reseller in exchange for an equivalent new product. The separate collection of the
rubbish and the subsequent treatment, recycling and disposal operations encourage the production of appliances made with
recycled materials and reduce negative effects on health and the environment caused by improper treatment of rubbish.
In the case of very small WEEE (no external dimension more than 25 cm), the user is eligible to get free of charge assignation
to retail shops with sales areas relating to EEE of at least 400 m².

CAPACITANCE MEASUREMENTS:
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test
and discharge all capacitors before taking any capacitance measurements.
Remove the batteries and unplug the line cords.
1. Set the function switch to the CAP position.
("nF" and a small value will appear in the display).
2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (-) jack (COM)
and the red test lead banana plug into the positive (+) jack (CAP).
3. Touch the test leads to the capacitor to be tested.
The display will indicate the proper decimal point, value and symbol.
REPLACING THE BATTERY:
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from any
source of voltage before removing the battery door.
1. When the batteries become exhausted or drop below the operating voltage,
"BAT" will appear in the right-hand side of the LCD display.
The battery should be replaced.
2. Follow instructions for installing battery.
See the Battery Installation section of this manual.
3. Dispose of the old battery properly.
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, do not operate your meter until the
battery door is in place and fastened securely.
BATTERY INSTALLATION:
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from any
source of voltage before removing the battery door.
1. Disconnect the test leads from the meter.
2. Open the battery door by loosening the screw using a Phillips head
screwdriver.
3. Insert the battery into battery holder, observing the correct polarity.
4. Put the battery door back in place. Secure with the two screws.
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, do not operate the meter until the
battery door is in place and fastened securely.
NOTE: If your meter does not work properly, check the fuses and battery
to make sure that they are still good and that they are properly inserted.
REPLACING THE FUSES:
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from any
source of voltage before removing the fuse door.
1. Disconnect the test leads from the meter and any item under test.
2. Open the fuse door by loosening the screw on the door using a Phillips
head screwdriver.
3. Remove the old fuse from its holder by gently pulling it out.
3. Install the new fuse into the holder.
4. Always use a fuse of the proper size and value (0.5A/1000V fast blow
for the 400mA range, 10A/1000V fast blow for the 10A range).
5. Put the fuse door back in place. Insert the screw and tighten it securely.
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, do not operate your meter until the
fuse door is in place and fastened securely.
