[a] Current can be measured from 30 mA to 440 mA continuously, and > 440 mA to 600 mA for 20 hours maximum. DC ranging from 60 mA to
440 mA have a thermal effect of 0.35 µA/mA. Cool down the multimeter for 6 seconds if 100 mA is applied and at least 3 minutes if
600 mA is applied. Alternatively, use the Null ( ) function to zero the thermal effect before proceeding with a low current measurement or
checking the current offset.
