3.1 Preparatory steps and directions to be followed
1. Allow the meter to "warm up" for at least 60 seconds before makin
an
measurements.
2. Onl
turn the function switch when the probes are not applied to live parts.
3. If the meter is used in the vicinit
of equipment which
enerates electroma
netic interference, the displa
ma
become unstable or the measurements shown ma
be subject to lar
e errors.
3.2 Measuring voltages
1. Plu
the red lead into the "V-
è
-
" input terminal of the meter and the black lead into the "COM" input terminal .
2. Turn the function switch to the "Va.c." or "Vd.c." position.
3. Appl
the probes to the circuit to be measured.
# WARNING :
When takin
measurements from hi
h ener
circuits, GS38 fused test leads should be used.
