  • Page 2: Safety Warnings

    2.0 READ FIRST: IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Read this operators manual thoroughly before using this multimeter. This manual is intended to provide basic information regarding this meter and to describe common test procedures which can be made with this unit. Many types of appliance, machinery and other electrical circuit measurements are not addressed in this manual and should be handled by experienced service technicians.
  • Page 3: Specifications

    Measurement categories (Over-voltage categories) To ensure safe operation of measuring instruments, IEC61010 establishes safety standards for various electrical environments, specified as CAT I through CAT IV, and called measurement categories. Higher-numbered categories correspond to electrical environments with greater momentary energy, so a measuring instrument designed for CAT III environments can endure greater momentary energy than one designed for CAT II.
  • Page 4: Hold Button

    4.0 FUNCTIONS 4.1 HOLD BUTTON 1. Press HOLD once to enter data hold mode and freeze the displayed value. 2. Press HOLD again to exit data hold mode and resume normal measurement mode. 4.2 AUTO POWER OFF 1. The AUTO symbol on the display indicates that the auto power-off feature is enabled. If you have not operated the meter for 15 minutes, the meter will turn off automatically and go into Sleep mode.
  • Page 5: Battery Replacement

    5.5 RESISTANCE When measuring resistance always make sure the power to the circuit is off. 1. Insert the black (negative) test lead into the COM input terminal. 2. Insert the red (positive) test lead into the INPUT terminal. 3. Set the Slide Switch to 400A 4.
  • Page 6 Test leads, fuses, batteries and calibration are not covered under any implied warranty. “Lifetime” of products that are no longer offered by Sperry will be either repaired or replaced with an item of Sperry Instruments choice of similar value. Lifetime is defined as 5 years after Sperry discontinued manufacturing the product, but the warranty period shall be at least ten years from date of purchase.
