4.  The test is completed by letting go of the TEST button or 

pushing down the TEST button if in the LOCK mode. 

This will shut off the high-voltage. The test resistance 

value will be shown in the primary display and held. The 

secondary display will show the insulation voltage  

remaining in the circuit.

5.  The instrument will discharge the balance of the test 

voltage automatically through the inner switch of the 

meter.

6.  Turning the rotary function switch will automatically exit  

from a testing status.

Low Resistance (Continuity) Measurements
1. Set the range switch to 400 

/BZ position.

2.  Connect the red test lead to the V

 terminal and black to 

the COM terminal.

3.  Connect the tips of the test leads to both ends of the  

circuit under test. Read the resistance in 

 on the LCD. 

The two ranges (40.00 M

/400.0 M

) can be switched 

automatically; the resistance in 

 flashes in the primary 

display and also shows on the analog bar.

4.  An impedance on circuit below approximately 

35 

will be indicated by a continuous beep. 

5.  The test current of a test resistance at 0

 is 200 to  

220 mA.

6.  The high voltage symbol   flashes, the primary display 

indicates >30 V, and the buzzer sounds if the voltage 

(AC/DC) is <30 V.
