1. Rotate the dial to the "OFF" position and
remove the test leads
2. Rotate the 1/4 turn fastener CCW with a
screwdriver or coin and remove the cover
3. Replace the batteries observing correct polarity
4. Use new R03 (AAA) or LR03 / 1.5V batteries.
5. Reinstall the door and rotate the 1/4 turn
fastener CW to secure the cover.
Replace the batteries when a low battery symbol
is displayed on the LCD screen.
When the battery is completely exhausted, the display
will appear blank and no symbol will be shown.
8. MAINTENANCE
Cleaning: Use only a soft cloth dampened with water or neutral detergent for cleaning the meter.
Do not use abrasives, solvents or harsh chemicals. Allow to dry thoroughly before use.
CAUTION
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Install batteries in correct polarity as indicated in the Battery Compartment.
WARNING
• To avoid electrical hazard, set the Function Switch to “OFF” and remove the test leads from the
instrument before trying to replace batteries.
7. BATTERY REPLACEMENT
WARNING
• Test on a known live source before use
• Even if the meter does not provide indication, potentially hazardous voltage could still be present
(The meter will only detect voltages above 50VAC and only when conditions are correct)
• The meter can be affected by: Distance from voltage source, Condition of meter and batteries, Shielded wires,
Metal enclosures, Insulation thickness, Static charge among other things
1. Remove the test leads
2. Rotate the dial to the “NCV” position
3. Confirm “EF” and “NCV” is indicated on the LCD screen
4. Position the tip of the clamp jaws near the voltage source
5. A continually cycling tone will be emitted and the clamp light will
flash when the meter senses AC voltage greater than ~50V
(The meter is sensitive to electrostatic fields. Occasionally a
static charge may interfere with the meter detection and the
meter may omit a tone momentarily.)
