Do not change battery when the Meter is in
wet environment.
Place test leads in proper input terminals.
Make sure all the test leads are firmly
connected to the Meter's input terminals.
Make sure the Meter is turned off when
opening the battery compartment.
When performing resistance tests, remove all
power from the circuit to be measured and
discharge all the power.
When servicing the Meter, use only the test.
leads and power adaotor with the same
model or identical electrical specifications.
Do not use the Meter if the battery indicator
(
) shows a battery empty condition. Take
the battery out from the Meter if it is not used
for a long time.
Do not use or store the Meter in an
environment of high temperature, humidity,
explosive, inflammable and strong magnetic
field. The performance of the Meter may
deteriorate after dampened.
Soft cloth and mild detergent should be used
to clean the surface of the Meter when
servicing. No abrasive and solvent should be
used to prevent the surface of the Meter from
corrosion, damage and accident.
Dry the Meter before storing if it is wet.

Conforms to Standards of European Union
Battery Saver (Sleep Mode)
The Meter enters the Sleep Mode and blanks the display
after 15 minutes' inactivity. This is done to conserve
battery power. The Meter comes out out of Sleep Mode
when ON/OFF button is pressed and hold for 1 second.
Battery Indication
There is a battery indicator shown on the up per left
corner of the display. Please refer to Table 3 for
detailed explanation.
Battery
Indicator
10V~10.5V. It means the battery is
almost empty replacing battery is
necessary. Under this status, the Meter
can still output 500V and 1000V to
measure, the measured accuracy will
not be affected.
10.6V~11.5V
11.6V or more.
When charging battery is applied, the charging battery
work mode should be selected at the startup: Press and
hold USB button prior to startup, then press down ON/
OFF, LCD screen will display CHA, or GEN, and select
to display CHA by pressing the up/down key, after
pressing USB key to confirm, the meter successfully
enters the charging battery work made. GEN means
the general alkaline battery work mode.
