AutoHOLD Mode 
XW Warning 
To avoid possible electric shock or personal 
injury, do not use AutoHOLD mode to 
determine that circuits are without power. 
The AutoHOLD mode will not capture 
unstable or noisy readings. 
The AutoHOLD mode captures the present reading on 
the display. When a new, stable reading is detected, the 
Meter beeps and displays the new reading. To enter or 
exit AutoHOLD mode, press 
D. 
Relative Mode 
Selecting relative mode (F) causes the Meter to zero 
the display and store the present reading as the reference 
for subsequent measurements. The Meter is locked into 
the range selected when you pressed 
F. Press 
Fagain to exit this mode. 
In relative mode, the reading shown is always the 
difference between the present reading and the stored 
reference value. For example, if the stored reference 
value is 15.00 V and the present reading is 14.10 V, the 
display shows -0.90 V.
