DIGITAL MULTIMETER OPERATION MANUAL
1. INTRODUCTION
This instrument is a high performance stability, battery operated, 3½ digital, 25mm high
character jumbo LCD reading to 1999 multi-meter with the function of measuring DC and
AC voltage, DC and AC current, Resistance, temperature and Capacitance, Diode and
Continuity test, data hold. The Dual-slop A/D converter uses CMOS technology for
auto-zero, polarity selection and over-range indication. Full overload protection is provided.
Because of its outstanding features, it is most suitable for use in production line, lab, R & D,
maintenance and repair work.
2. SAFETY NOTE
The meter meets the standards of IEC1010. Read the operation manual carefully before operation.
2-1．Do not input limit over-ranged.
2-2．The voltage below 36V is safety. To avoid electric shock, check whether the test leads
are connected correctly, whether the insulation is good when measuring over 36DCV
or 25ACV.
2-3．Remove the test leads when changing function and range.
2-4．To select correct function and range, beware of error operation.；
2-5．Do not operate the meter if battery case and back cover is not fixed.
2-6．Do not input voltage when measuring resistance.
2-7．Remove test leads from test point and turn off the power before replacing battery and fuse.
2-8．Safety symbols.
“ ”Exists dangerous voltage，“ ” GND，“ ”Dual insulation
“ ”The operator must refer to the manual，“ ”Low battery
