3.5.1. Fuse self-test
When fuse F1 (0.63 A) or F2 (10 A) is blown, the display shows "FUSE.1" or "FUSE.2",
accordingly.

Replace the fuse or fuses concerned.
"
Fuse F1 cannot be tested unless the switch is set to the µ µ µ µ A/mA position.

Fuse F2 is located in the common circuit. Therefore, V, Ω Ω Ω Ω , C and
measurements, and measurements in the 10 A range, become impossible
when it is out of service.

When the BAT indication appears on the display, the instrument still has approximately 50
hours of operation, but specifications can no longer be guaranteed.
Replace the battery.
