Note: 400.0mV range is designed with 1000M

 high input impedance for least current 

drain in measuring small signals, and can cope better with most commercially available 
voltage output transducers/adapters. The non-zero display reading is normal when the 
meter inputs are open circuit, which will not affect actual measurement accuracy. The
