MAKING MEASUREMENT

X�
1. Use the proper function and range for
measurements.
2. To avoid possible electrical shock, personal injury or
damages to the Meter, disconnect circuit power and
discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing
resistance and diode.
3. Connecting test leads:
• Connect the common (COM) test lead to the circuit
before connecting the live lead.
• After measurement, remove live lead before
removing the common (COM) test lead from the
circuit.
4. Symbol "OL" is displayed on LCD when the
measurement is out of range.
