How to use

Before use, select the appropriate measurement function and range with the rotary selector. Connect the test leads to the meter and to the circuit or component under test, observing polarity for DC measurements. For voltage measurement, place the probes across the source or load; for current measurement, use the correct input and place the meter in series with the circuit or use a clamp accessory if available. Use the resistance and continuity settings on de-energized circuits to verify wiring and component integrity. Follow the display prompts and indicators for correct readings and remove probes when finished.

Usage recommendations

Always verify that the selected function and range match the expected measurement to avoid damaging the instrument. De-energize circuits when measuring resistance or continuity. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment when working on live circuits and follow local safety regulations. Store the multimeter and test leads in a dry, dust-free environment and replace batteries when low to maintain reliable measurements.
