    Note: - Before connecting the probe and test lead at lower voltage ranges, the display may show erratic readings. This is normal because the meter is highly sensitive. Once a connection is made, the true reading will be displayed. - “OL” indicated an over-range situation in manual mode. A higher range should be selected.
