SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Read this information before using the meter, taking special care regarding any WARNING or IMPORTANT notices. The following safe practices and proper operating procedures should be followed when using any multimeter:

WARNING: TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK, USE CAUTION WHEN WORKING ABOVE 40V DC OR 25V AC RMS. SUCH VOLTAGES POSE A SHOCK HAZARD

Inspect the test leads for insulation damage or exposed metal. Damaged leads should be replaced.

Select the proper function and range for your measurement.

Avoid severe shocks and do not drop the multimeter.

Do not allow the meter to be used if it is damaged or if its safety is impaired.

Electrically disconnect the live, or hot, test lead before disconnecting the common test lead.

Follow all equipment safety procedures. Disconnect the input power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors through a protective impedance before testing in and with the multimeter.

Avoid working alone.

When making a current measurement, turn the power off before connecting the multimeter in the circuit. Overloading a current shunt will cause excessive heat.

When measuring transformer secondary or motor winding current, check the multimeter fuses first.

When testing circuits take extra care not to touch any bare metal including the ends of the test probes.

The use of makeshift fuses and the short-circuiting of fuse holders is prohibited.

Whenever it is likely that the protection has been impaired, the meter shall be made inoperative and be secured against any unintended operation.

Never attempt to measure a voltage or current higher than the maximum rating of the meter.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: Extreme care should be taken when reading high voltages. DO NOT exceed maximum voltage for which the meter is designed.

DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT 1. Set function switch to V position

2. Set range switch to desired position. If magnitude of voltage is unknown beforehand, set the switch to its highest range and then reduce until satisfactory reading is obtained.

3. Connect test leads across the source or load under measurement. The polarity of the RED lead connection will be indicated as well as the voltage.

DATA HOLD FUNCTION D-H button is used to hold a measuring result. When this button is pushed, the last reading will be held on the LCD until the button is pushed again, or the function switch is reset.

MAINTENANCE CAUTION: 1. Make sure test leads are dsconnected from the test drcuit, and range switch is set to OFF before opening the case.

2. Do not operate the instrument unless the back cover is in place and fastened.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT 1. When batteries become exhausted, or drop below the

operating voltage, BATT sign will appear on the LCD.

2. Turn off meter and remove test leads from dl test circuits pnor to replacing batteries.

3. Remove the screw from the back cover and open the case. Replace batteries, ensuring proper polarity is observed.

REPLACEMENT OF FUSE Proceed as for changing battery, ensuring the fuse replacement is of the same size and rating as the original.

Fculure to do so may result in serious damage to your meter or possibly even fire.

(Fuse must be no more than 0.5A/250V)

REPLACEMENT PARTS 1. Test Leads (pair) Part No. CHI5O1
