BATTERY VOLTAGE TEST 

CAUTION:  

Do not measure batteries while they are installed in the devices they are 

powering. The batteries must be removed from installations before tests can be made. 

1. 

Set the function switch to the 

1.5V

 or 

9V

 

BAT

 switch position. Use the 

1.5V position for ‘AAA’, ‘AA’, ‘C’, ‘D’, and other 1.5V batteries. Use the 
9V position for square 9V transistor batteries.

 

 

2.  Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative 

COM

 jack. 

Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive 

V

 jack. 

3.  Touch the black test probe tip to the negative side of the battery.  

Touch the red test probe tip to the positive side of the battery. 

4.  Read the voltage in the display. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS 

1. 

Set the function switch to the 

°F

 or 

°C

 position. 

2. 

Insert the Temperature Probe into the 

COM

 and 

Temp

 jacks, making 

sure to observe the correct polarity. 

3. 

Touch the Temperature Probe head to the part to be measured. Keep 
the probe touching the part under test until the reading stabilizes. 

4. 

Read the temperature in the display. 

 

Note:

 The temperature probe is fitted with a type K mini connector.  

A mini connector to banana connector adaptor is supplied for  
connection to the input banana jacks.
