Resistance measurement
Connect the test leads to the jacks marked INPUT and COM, set the knob to the position marked Ω. Choose the
resistance measurement with SEL button - AUTO and Ω marks. Apply the test leads to the terminals of the meas-
ured element and read the measurement result. In order to obtain more accurate measurement results, change the
measuring range if necessary. It is absolutely forbidden to measure the resistance of elements through which
electric current is fl owing. For measurements of high value resistance, the measurement may take a few seconds
before the readout becomes stable, which is the normal response for high resistance measurements. Before applying
the tips to the terminals of the measured element, an overload symbol is shown on the display.
Conductivity test
Connect the test leads to the jacks marked INPUT and COM, set the knob to the position marked Ω. Use the SEL
button to select the conductivity test - the "buzzer symbol" and Ω marks. Apply the tips of the test leads to the place
to be measured. The built-in buzzer emits a sound whenever the measured resistance drops below 60 Ω. The buzzer
can also emit a sound when the resistance is in the range from 60 Ω to 120 Ω. It is absolutely forbidden to test
conductivity in circuits through which electric current is fl owing.
Diode test
Connect the test leads to the jacks marked INPUT and COM, set the knob to the position marked Ω. Use the SEL
button to select the conductivity test - "LED symbol" and V markers. Apply the tips of the test leads to the diode termi-
nals. The display shows the value of the conduction voltage or the symbol "OL" if the diode is tested in the reversed
direction. It is absolutely forbidden to test diodes through which electric current is fl owing.
Contactless alternating voltage detection
The meter has a sensor capable of detecting the electromagnetic fi eld generated by alternating voltages higher than
90 V. Move the knob to the NCV position, this will be confi rmed by the displayed "EF" symbol. Bring the sensor closer
at the top of the fi xed measuring jaw to the location to be checked for the presence of an electromagnetic fi eld. As the
fi eld strength increases, the lines on the display will be visible. The more lines the higher the intensity, the pulsating
sound emit and the backlight fl ashes. The higher the pulse rate, the higher the intensity of the emitted electromagnetic
fi eld. This measurement can be used, for example, to detect hidden alternating voltage wires. However, it should be
remembered that such measurement is infl uenced by many external factors and may be interfered with by external
electromagnetic fi elds. Do not rely solely on this method to detect live wires.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Wipe the meter with a soft cloth. Larger amounts of dirt should be removed with a slightly damp cloth. Do not immerse
the product in water or any other liquid. Do not use solvents, corrosive or abrasive agents for cleaning. Care should
be taken to keep the contacts of the meter and the test leads clean. Clean the contacts of the test leads with a cloth
slightly soaked in isopropyl alcohol. In order to clean the contacts of the meter, turn off the meter and remove the
battery. Turn the meter over and shake it gently so that larger pieces of dirt fall out of the meter connectors. Lightly
soak a cotton stick with isopropyl alcohol and clean each contact. Wait until the alcohol evaporates, then install the
battery. The meter should be stored in a dry room in the supplied unit packaging.
