  • Page 2 SAFETY NOTES Read the user’s manual before using the equipment, mainly "SAFETY RULES" paragraph. The symbol on the equipment means "SEE USER’S MANUAL". In this manual may also appear as a Caution or Warning symbol. WARNING AND CAUTION statements may appear in this manual to avoid injury hazard or damage to this product or other property.
  • Page 3 SAFETY INFORMATION Before any operations, please read the following safety precautions to avoid any possible bodily injury and prevent damage to this product or any other products connected. To avoid any contingent danger, use this product only as specified. Limit operation to the specified measurement category, voltage, or amperage ratings.
  • Page 4 Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or capacitance. Use the proper terminals, function, and range for your measurements. When the range of the value to be measured is unknown, set the rotary switch position as the highest range, or choose the auto ranging mode. To avoid damages to the multimeter, do not exceed the maximum limits of the input values shown in the technical specification tables.

    PROFESSIONAL DIGITAL MULTIMETER FP - 2 1 QUICK START General Inspection Check the instrument according to the following steps: 1. Check whether there is any damage caused by transportation If it is found that the packaging carton or the foamed plastic protection cushion has suffered serious damage, do not throw it away first till the complete device and its accessories succeed in the electrical and mechanical property tests.

  • Page 7: Install The Batteries

    If it is found that there is any accessory lost or damaged, please get in touch with the distributor of PROMAX responsible for this service or the PROMAX local offices. 3. Check the Complete Instrument If it is found that there is damage to the appearance of the instrument, or the...

  • Page 8: Power On

    Adjusting the Tilt Stand Pull the tilt stand outward to its maximum reach (about 85° to the meter body). Power On To power ON the multimeter, turn the rotary switch to any other position except OFF. To power OFF the multimeter, turn the rotary switch to the OFF position. Sleep Mode The multimeter automatically enters the sleep mode if the rotary switch is not moved or a key is not pressed for 30 minutes.
  • Page 9 In manual range, each additional press of sets the multimeter to the next higher range, unless it is already in the highest range, at which point the range switches to the lowest range. When manual range is enabled, press for more than 2 seconds to enter the auto ranging mode.
