Figure 3-2 Null operation
• In resistance measurement, the multimeter will read a non-zero value
even when the two test leads are in direct contact, because of the
resistance of these leads. Use the null function to zero-adjust the
display.
• For DC voltage measurements, the thermal effect will influence the
accuracy of the measurements. Short the test leads and press
when the displayed value is stable to zero-adjust the display.
