probably is opened.
2.- MEASURING DC AND AC CURRENT
1.- Connect the red testing point to the jack signaled ""V/Ω"" for
readings between 2A and 20A (maximum 10 seconds with 20A)
and the black testing point to the jack signaled "COM".
Set the dial to the VDC setting
2.- Set the dial to the maximum setting. Reduce level by level
until reaching the desired level.
This functions it is protected by a 2A/250V fuse. Pay special

otherwise it will damage the internal resistances.
otherwise it will damage the internal resistances.
MEASURING RESISTANCES
1.- Connect the red testing point to the jack signaled ""V/Ω"" and
the black testing point to the jack signaled "COM".
2.- Set the dial to Ohms (Ω) range. Connect the testing points to
the circuit to be measured.
The resistance value will appear on the LCD screen.
If the resistance exceeds the range, the LCD screen will
If the resistance exceeds the range, the LCD screen will
display "1". Then you need to select a higher range. For

measuring resistance.
TESTING DIODES
1.- Connect the red testing point to the jack signaled ""V/Ω"" and
the black testing point to the jack signaled "COM".
2.- Set the dial to DIODE range and measure the diode.
If one of the testing points is not connected to the circuit,
If one of the testing points is not connected to the circuit,
the LCD screen will display "1", indicating an over range.
