CAUTIONS
Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or death. Read and understand this user manual before operating the meter.
Always remove the test leads before replacing the battery.
Inspect the condition of the test leads and the meter itself for any damage before operating the meter. Repair or replace any damage before use.
Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are greater than 25VAC rms or 35VDC. These voltages are considered a shock hazard.
Remove the battery if the meter is to be stored for long periods.
Always discharge capacitors and remove power from the device under test before performing Diode, Resistance or
Continuity tests.
• Voltage checks on electrical outlets can be difficult and misleading because of the uncertainty of connection to the recessed electrical contacts. Other means should be used to ensure that the terminals are not "live".
• If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

Operation
NOTICES: Read and understand all warning and precaution statements listed in the safety section of this operation manual prior to using this meter. Set the function select switch to the OFF position when the meter is not in use.
AC Current Measurements
WARNING: Ensure that the test leads are disconnected from the meter before making current clamp measurements.
1. Set the Function switch to the 400 or 40A range.
2. If the range of the measured is not
known, select the higher range first then move to the lower range if necessary.
3. Press the trigger to open jaw.
Fully enclose one conductor
to be measured.
The clamp meter LCD will display the reading.
DC/AC Voltage Measurements
1. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM terminal and the red test lead into the positive
V terminal.
2. Set the function switch to the V position.
3. Select AC or DC with the MODE button.
4. Connect the test leads in parallel to the circuit under test.
5. Read the voltage measurement on the LCD display.
6
Resistance Measurements
1.
Insert the black test lead into the negative
COM terminal and the red test lead into the positive terminal.
2.
3.
4.
Set the function switch to the Ω •))) position.
Touch the test probe tips across the circuit or component under test. It is best to disconnect one side of the device under test so the rest of the circuit will not interfere with the resistance reading.
For Resistance tests, read the resistance on the LCD display.
Diode and Continuity Measurements
1. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative
COM jack and the red test lead banana plug into the positive diode jack.
2. Turn the rotary switch to the Ω •))) position.
3. Press the MODE button until “ ” appears in the display.
4. Touch the test probes to the diode under test. Forward voltage will indicate 0.4V to 0.7V. Reverse voltage will indicate “ OL”. Shorted devices will indicate near 0mV and an open device will indicate “ OL” in both polarities.
Red Black Black Red

Capacitance Measurements
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test and discharge all capacitors before taking any capacitance measurements. Remove the batteries and unplug the line cords.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the CAP position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative
(COM) jack.Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive (V) jack.
3. Touch the test leads to the capacitor to be tested.
4. Read the capacitance value in the display
Frequency or % duty cycle measurements
1. Set the rotary function switch to the “VDC/AC,Hz” position.
2. Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana plug into the positive V jack.
3. Select Hz or % duty with the Hz/% button.
4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit under test.
5. Read the frequency on the display.
Temperature Measurements
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect both test probes from any source of voltage before making a temperature measurement.
1. Set the function switch to ° C or °F.
2. Insert the Temperature Probe into the negative (COM) and the V jacks, making sure to observe the correct polarity.

3. Touch the Temperature Probe head to the part whose temperature you wish to measure. Keep the probe touching the part under test until the reading stabilizes (about 30 seconds).
4. Read the temperature in the display. The digital reading will indicate the proper decimal point and value.
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, be sure the thermocouple has been removed before changing to another measurement function
Non-Contact AC Voltage Measurements
WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. Before use, always test the Voltage Detector on a known live circuit to verify proper operation
1. Turn meter On to any setting. The AC Voltage Detector is located at the tip of the AC current clamp at the ‘lightning bolt’ marks. Only the outside of the clamp, in the ‘notch’ at the clamp separation, is sensitive to AC voltage. Clamping the jaws around a live wire will not necessarily cause the AC
Voltage Detector to sense the ‘live’ wire
.
2. If AC voltage is present, the red AC Voltage indicator will light.
NOTE: The conductors in electrical cords are often twisted and the position of the ‘hot’ wire is unknown. For best results, hold the cord in the notch of the clamp while running it along the length of the cord.
9
NOTE: The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity or other sources of energy may randomly cause the red indicator to light. This is normal operation.
MODE BUTTON
To select DC/ACV,OHM/ Diode/Continuity
Data Hold Button / Backlite
To freeze the LCD meter reading, press the data hold button.
While data hold is active, the HOLD display icon appears on the LCD. Press the data hold button again to return to normal operation.
The HOLD button also turns the Backlite on and off. Press it for about 2 seconds to turn the light on. Press it again for 2 seconds to turn the light off. The light will turn off automatically in about 30 minutes if the buttons or knob on the meter are not operated.
NOTE: Turning the Backlite on and off also turns HOLD on and off. Use short presses of the button to control
HOLD, and long presses to control the Backlite. Any combination of
HOLD and Backlite can be obtained.
REL BUTTON
For Capacitance Zero & Offset adjustment.
10
RANGE BUTTON
When the meter is first turned on, it automatically goes into
AutoRanging. This automatically selects the best range for the measurements being made and is generally the best mode for most measurements. For measurement situations requiring that a range be manually selected, perform the following:
1. Press the RANGE button. The “Auto Range” display indicator will turn off, The “Manual Range” display indicator will turn on
2. Press the RANGE button to step through the available ranges until you select the range you want.
3. Press and hold the RANGE button for 2 seconds to exit the ManualRanging mode and return to AutoRanging.
Battery Replacement
1. Remove the 2 rear Phillips head screw
2. Open the battery compartment
3. Replace the 2 “AAA’ batteries (1.5V, UM4, R03)
4. Re-assemble the meter
