  • Page 5 OPERATION: High Voltage Warning (HI-V) The meter indicates when 30V AC/DC voltage is present by lighting the red LED and beeping. This voltage warning works on all functions and ranges for enhanced safety. So, even if the meter is set on the wrong function, the meter alerts the user that dangerous voltage is present. Auto/Manual Ranging Mode ( The meter defaults to autoranging mode when powered on.
  • Page 6 Selectable Auto Power Off (APO) Feature The meter automatically powers itself down after about 30 minutes of no use. Press any button, and the meter will wake up and display the last reading taken before power down. This feature can be overridden by holding the Range ( ) button while turning the function switch from Off to any other position.
