Inspect the test leads f or damage. Check for cracked insula-
tion, broken or damaged probes, loose or bent probe pins. Do
not use if any abnormal condition exists.
Set the Function/Range Selector Switch to the proper r ange
BEFORE taking measurements. If the r ange/function must
9
E
be switched during a test, ALWAYS remove the test leads
from the circuit being measured before switching settings.
To avoid possible electric shock, instrument damage, and/or
equipment damage when taking voltage or current measure-
ments, DO NOT exceed the maximum value of the selected
range.
If the tester is used near high noise Radio F requency (RF)
generating equipment (spar k plug wires , ignition coils or
alternator), the display may become unstable or indicate large
errors. If you obtain err atic readings dur ing use, isolate the
tester as far away as possible from these components.
TESTING PROCEDURES

1. Plug the BLACK test lead into "COM" jack of the tester; plug
the RED test lead into the "V" jack.
NOTE: If alligator clip adapters (not included with tester) are to
be used on the test leads , use suitable rated and UL cer tified
alligator clips.
2. Set the tester’ s Function/Range Selector Switch to the
appropriate DCV or ACV position as desired (see
Controls and Indicators, Items 1 and 2).
3. Place the RED test lead onto the positive (+) side of the item
being tested and the BLACK test lead onto the negativ e (-)
(across the source/load) side of the item.BE CAREFUL not to
touch any energized conductors with any part of your body.
4. Read the results on the display.
10
E
WARNING
To avoid possible electric shock, instrument damage
and/or equipment damage, DO NOT attempt to measure
voltages ABOVE 600V AC/DC or take measurements if
the voltage is unknown. 600V AC/DC between the COM
and V jacks is the maximum voltage that this instrument
is designed to measure. The "COM" terminal potential
should not exceed 300V AC/DC measured to ground.
B. RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT
(OHMS)
1. Plug the RED test lead into the "
" jack of the tester ; plug
the BLACK test lead into the "COM" jack.
2. Set the tester’s Function/Range Selector Switch to the

ed and the BLACK test lead onto the other side of the item.
(Polarity does not matter when checking resistance).
5. Read the results on the display.
C. DIODE TEST
NOTE: A diode is a semiconductor de vice that lets current flow in
one direction only. If the diode to be tested is par t of a circuit
(with other electronic components), you must isolate it from the
other components by disconnecting at least one side of it from
the circuit before testing. A good diode will sho w a low voltage
drop across its junction (0.5-0.8 volts for a silicon diode or about
0.3V for a germanium diode) when the leads are connected in
one polarity and a v ery high resistance (or open circuit) when
the leads are reversed (connected in the opposite polar ity).
1. Plug the RED test lead into the jack of the tester; plug
the BLACK test lead into the "COM" jack.

WARNING
To avoid electrical shock and/or damage to the multimeter,
ensure the power is removed from the circuit before any
DIODE testing procedure is conducted.Test diodes on de-
energized (dead) circuits only, never on live circuits.
WARNING
Resistance measurements must be made on "de-ener-
gized" (dead) circuits ONLY. Impressing a voltage across
the multimeter's terminals while set to any resistance
range may result in electric shock, instrument damage
and/or damage to equipment under test. MAKE SURE
equipment is completely de-energized before taking any
resistance measurements.
