WARNING
To avoid harms to you or damages to the
meter from electric shock, please do not attempt
to measure voltages higher than 1000V although
readings may be obtained.
When measuring high voltage, take extra care to
avoid electric shock.
1. Insert the red test lead into the V terminal
and the black test lead into the COM terminal.
2. Set the rotary switch to V; DC measurement in
default or press BLUE button to switch between
DC and AC measurement mode.

Note
• In each range, the Meter has an input impedance
of 10MΩ except mV range which input impedance
is 3000MΩ. This loading effect can cause
measurement errors in high impedance circuits.
If the circuit impedance is less than or equal to
10kΩ, the error is negligible (0.1% or less).
• When measuring mV, you must press RANGE
manually to enter mV range.
• When voltage measurement has been completed,
disconnect the connection between the testing
leads and the circuit under test, and remove the
testing leads away from the input terminals of
the Meter.
B. DC/AC Current Measurement (See figure 3)
WARNING
Before connecting the Meter to the return
circuit to be tested, cut off the current of the return
circuit.
If the fuse burns out during measurement, the
Meter may be damaged or the operator himself
may be hurt.
Use proper terminals, function, and range for the
measurement.
