Measurement Auto-power test Short circuiting the probes as follows powers on the instrument automatically and goes into self diagnostic test. Instrument may power on when replacing tips or due to the effect of static charge. Self diagnostic test Battery voltage is normal when Power LED is lighting up when battery voltage is below 2.4 +/- 0.1V Power LED flashes or goes off, replace batteries.

Measurement Voltage polarity is indicated in the following manner: NOTE: when the L2 probe + is the positive (negative) potential, polarity indication LED indicated +DC (-DC). High voltage indication Grasp the instrument firmly and connect both probes to the object under test. Live circuit LED lights up when a voltage of approx.
