Testing Fuses (F1 and F2)
To test the internal fuses of the Meter, refer to Figure 3 and do the following:
1.  Turn the rotary selector switch to the ReE position.
2.  To test F2, plug a test lead into the 
z input terminal, and touch the probe to the
A input terminal. (Because the receptacles of the input terminals contain split
contacts, be sure that you touch the probe to the half of the receptacle contact that is
nearest the LCD.)
 The display should indicate between 00.0 Ω and 00.5 Ω.
 If the display reads OL (overload), replace the fuse and test again. If the display
reads any other value, further servicing is required.
3.  To test F1, move the probe from the 
A input terminal to the mA 
µ
A input terminal.
 The display should read between 0.995 kΩ and 1.005 kΩ.
If the display reads a high resistance or 
OL (overload), replace the fuse and test
again. If the display reads any other value, further servicing is required.
