Warning Always test this unit on an appropriate proving device or known voltage source before and after using it to determine if a hazardous voltage exists in a circuit to be tested. Warning When using test leads, always keep your fingers behind the finger guard on the test lead probe.
3. OPERATION 3.1 General If the multimeter does not measure current on the μA/mA ranges, the internal fuse (F1) may have blown (see section 4.2 Fuse Replacement). If the multimeter does not measure current on the 10A range the internal fuse (F2) may have blown (see section 4.2 Fuse Replacement).
Indicates DC measurement Indicates AC measurement 3.6 Auto Power Off The MM65 will auto power off after approximately 10 minutes. Pressing any button will turn the MM65 back on. To deactivate the auto power off function press and hold the RANGE button while simultaneously turning the MM65 function switch from OFF to any position.
To manually select a range press the RANGE button to hold the present range, then continue to press the RANGE button until the required range is selected. The sequence is lowest range to highest then directly back to lowest. To return to autoranging hold the RANGE button for 2 seconds. 3.8 Data Hold To hold a displayed value press the HOLD button.
Taking all necessary safety precautions connect the test leads in series with the circuit being measured and read the measured current from the display. 3.11 Resistance Measurement Connect the black test lead to the COM terminal and the red test lead to the VΩ...

Taking all necessary safety precautions connect the test leads to the diode being tested. If the diode is good a forward bias will give a display reading of around 0.6 V (silicon diode) and a reverse bias will give a display of OL.
4. MAINTENANCE 4.1 Battery Replacement To avoid shock or injury, disconnect the multimeter from any external circuits or components and remove the test leads before proceeding. Replace the battery by removing the two screws from the battery cover and lifting the battery cover. Fit a new 9V, NEDA 1604, JIS006P, IEC 6F22 battery and replace the battery cover and screws.
