6-9. Polarity indication
1. The meter displays “-” for negative values, positive is implied
6-10. Over Range indication
1. When the input exceeds the measuring range “OL” is displayed on the LCD screen
6-11. Non-contact Voltage (NCV) Detection
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, and Static
charge among other things
1. Remove the test leads
2. Rotate the dial to the “NCV” position
3. The meter will display “O.L” when the NCV function is being used
4. Position the tip of the clamp meter jaws near the voltage source
5. A continually cycling tone will be emitted 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.)

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.
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.
• To avoid electrical hazard, set the Function Switch to “OFF” and remove the test leads from the instrument
before trying to replace batteries.
WARNING
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Install batteries in correct polarity as indicated in the Battery Compartment.
CAUTION
