Quick check on 0.5A FUSE:
Step 1: Turn the rotary switch to mA
Step 2: Use a multimeter with continuity function to verify the fuse
continuity for the fuse of mA/μA terminal. Connect the test leads to mA/μA
terminal and COM terminal.
Continuity buzzer activates: the fuse is OK
Continuity buzzer is not activated: the fuse is burnt. Replace the fuse as specified.
