® ® I) SAFETY : Observe proper safety precautions when working with voltages This manual contains information and warnings that must be above 33 Vrms, 46.7 Vpeak or 70 VDC. These voltage levels pose followed for operating the meter safely and maintaining the meter In other words, the meter will intelligently avoid entering the APO in a safe operating condition.
® ® Measurement Category III is applicable to test and measuring III) SPECIAL FEATURES : circuits connected to the distribution part of the building's low- — — BeepLit™ Continuity — Backlighted LCD — Auto-ranging MAX/MIN/ voltage MAINS installation. Examples are measurements on —...

® ® WARNING : AutoV mode input impedance increases abruptly from initial 2.1kΩ to a few hundred kΩ's on high voltage hard signals. “LoZ” displays on the LCD to remind the users of being in such low impedance mode. Peak initial load current, while probing 1000VAC for example, can be up to 673mA (1000V x 1.414 / 2.1kΩ), decreasing abruptly to approx.

® ® Line Frequency functions Press the Hz push-button momentarily to toggle Hz function. It is only available to Voltage and Current related ranges. Input sensitivity varies automatically with the function range selected while activating the Hz function. 6V function range has the highest and the 1000V range has the lowest.

® ® Application notes for flame sensors: DCmA function is useful for HVAC/R flame sensor applications. The 0.1mA resolution can identify the minute current changes in flame detector applications. Flame signal current check should indicate steady flame signal of at least 2mA for a rectification type, or 1.5mA for an ultraviolet type (8mA for self checking systems).

® ® Electric Field EF-Detection Capacitance; Diode Press the EF button momentarily to toggle EF-Detection feature. Press the SELECT button momentarily to toggle the functions. Last The meter displays “EF-H” when it is ready. If it is too sensitive selection will be saved as power up default for repeat measurement for your applications, press (Level) button momentarily toggles to convenience.

® ® Relative Zero ( ) mode Relative Zero allows the user to offset the meter consecutive measurements with the displaying reading as the reference value. Practically all displaying readings can be set as relative reference value including MAX/MIN/AVG feature readings. Press the button for one second or more to toggle Relative Zero mode.
® ® Trouble Shooting 1) Rotary switch or push button operations If the instrument fails to operate, check battery, fuses, leads, etc., 2) Significant measuring readings of above 8.5% of ranges and replace as necessary. Double check operating procedure as 3 ) Non-OL readings for Resistance, Continuity or Diode function described in this user's manual 4) Non-zero readings for Hz function...
® WARRANTY MUMBAI Each “KUSAM-MECO” product is warranted to be free from defects in TEST CERTIFICATE material and workmanship under normal use & service. The warranty period is one year (12 months) and begins from the date of despatch of goods.
