OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This meter comes with an exclusive patented technology featuring bright 

LEDs indicating the correct input jack to plug-in the positive (red) test lead 

for the selected function. The LED turns off after the test lead is completely 

plugged in the correct jack. If the test lead is plugged in the wrong jack, the 

LED will start flashing and the buzzer will start beeping.

 

1. DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT

 

WARNING

: MAXIMUM INPUT IS 1000V DC. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN WORKING 

WITH HIGH VOLTAGES. NEVER APPLY THE TEST LEAD TO THE MEASURING CIRCUIT WHEN 

CHANGING THE POSITION OF THE FUNCTION SWITCH. IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF THE VOLTAGE 

BEING MEASURED, SELECT THE HIGHEST RANGE AND REDUCE UNTIL A SATISFACTORY 

READING IS OBTAINED.

 Set the function switch to 1000 on the 

DC VOLTS 

scale.

 The LED next to  V/ /F/ /  jack will turn on.

 Plug the red test lead in  V/ /F/ /  jack and 

the black test lead in 

 jack.

 Apply the test leads to the circuit to be 

measured. Ensure that the black 

lead is connected to the negative 

side of the circuit and red lead to 

the positive.

 Read the displayed voltage.

 If the reading displayed does 

not have a sufficient number of 

digits i.e. 00.2 Instead of 1.786, 

set the function switch to the next 

lower range. Repeat until you have 

maximum digits possible without 

displaying ʻIʼ.

 If the minus (-) sign appears it means the voltage is negative at the 

point being measured. 

 If ʻIʼ appears on the display, it indicates over-range. Immediately remove 

test leads from the measuring circuit to avoid any damage to the meter. 

The input voltage should not exceed the measurement capability of this 

meter.
