    UT118C User Manual Preface Thank you for purchasing this brand new product. In order to use this product safely and correctly, please read this manual thoroughly, especially the Safety Instructions part. After reading this manual, it is recommended to keep the manual at an easily accessible place, preferably close to the device, for future reference.
  • Page 3 UT118C User Manual 1. Overview UT118C is a 6000-Count True-RMS multimeter with high reliability and safety. It can be used in narrow and dark environments and concentrated circuits by virtue of its compact shape, flashlight and ultra-sharp probe tip. UT118C is designed with full-scale overload protection and unique appearance, making it a new-generation measurement meter with more practical performances.

    UT118C User Manual 10. Button Descriptions Short press: Press the button for 2s Long press: Press the button for ≥2s 1) DCV/ACV position: Short press to cycle through DCV and ACV. 2) Continuity/Resistance/Diode: Short press to cycle through continuity, resistance and diode.
  • Page 9 UT118C User Manual 11.1 Measure DC/AC Voltage (Figure 3) 1) Set the rotary switch to the DC/AC voltage measurement position. 2) The measurement position is DC voltage position by default. To measure AC voltage, please short press the “SEL” button to switch to AC voltage position.
  • Page 10 UT118C User Manual 11.2 Measure Continuity, Resistance and Diode (Figure 4) 1) Set the rotary switch to the continuity/resistance/diode measurement position. 2) By default, the measurement position is the automatic identification mode (in which the Meter can automatically identify the continuity, resistance and diode measurements). By short pressing the “SEL”...
  • Page 11 UT118C User Manual * The buzzer will make a long beep if the resistance between both ends of the measured object is ≤10Ω. * “OL” will appear on the LCD if the measured resistor is open or the measured resistance exceeds the maximum range.
  • Page 12 UT118C User Manual Warning: * Please discharge the capacitor completely before measurement (especially for capacitor with high voltage) to avoid product damage or personal injury. * When there is no input, the Meter may display a fixed reading, which is the intrinsic compensation capacitance of the Meter.
  • Page 13 UT118C User Manual * Disconnect the test lead with the measured circuit after all measurement operations are completed. 11.5 Non-Contact AC Voltage Detection (NCV)/LIVE Wire Identification Operating steps for non-contact AC voltage detection (Figure 7): 1) Set the rotary switch to the NCV/LIVE position.
