Page 8: Operating Instructions
Refer to Resistance Measurement Mode for details. Note: The instrument automatically enters the resistance measurement mode at start up regardless of the last saved setting. If the instrument does not pass calibration, the LCD display will indicate "ER" as shown below. Note: This error could be caused by the clamp jaw not being properly closed or from any dirt build up on the metal surface of the jaw clamp. continued...
