Notes:
• For DC-measurements: when a negative
polarity is present at the red test lead, the
indicated value is preceded by a “-” sign.
•
When the measured value is higher than the selected range limit, the display will show
“OL”. Select a higher range.
7.2 Current measurements
Do not measure current in circuits with voltages > 250V
00mA; for measurements up to 10A use the
10A jack. When measuring currents above 5A, max. 15s continu
by a 10 minutes break between 2 measurements.

s be careful when working with voltages above 60Vdc or 30Vac rms. Keep your
fingers behind the probe barriers at all times during measurement.
• For measurements up to 300mA: connect the red test lead to the "
black lead to the "COM" jack.
• For measurements up to 10A: connect the red test lead to the "
lead to the "COM" jack.
• Set the function selector to A for measurements up to 10A
• Set the function selector to mA or µA for measurements up to 3
•
When the range is unknown, always select the highest possible range and lower to the
appropriate range.
• Connect the test probes in series with the circuit.
• Read the measured value from the display.
• When desired, select a range manually with the RANGE button.
Notes:
• For DC-
current measurements, when a negative polarity is present at the red test lead,
the indicated value is preceded by a “-” sign.
• The µAmA-range is protected against over-current with a F300mA
the 10A-range is protected against over-current with a F10A 25

• When the measured value is higher than the selected range li
mit, the display will show
“OL”. Select a higher range.
7.3 Resistance measurements
Do not perform resistance measurements on live circuits.
Make sure all capacitors in the circuit are discharged.
• Connect the red test lead to the "VΩF" jack and the
• Set the rotary switch to the Ω range.
• Connect the test probes to the circuit/component under test.
• The measured value appears on the display.
• When desired, select a range manually with the RANGE button.
Notes:
o Never perform
resistance measurements on a live circuit and make sure all capacitors are
completely discharged.
o For resistance measurements above 3.26M
Ω the meter needs a few seconds to stabilize the
read-out.
o Should the measured resistance exceed the selected range or
display will show “OL”.
7.4 Continuity & diode test
Do not perform continuity or diode measurements on live circuits.
Make sure all capacitors in the circuit are discharged.
• Connect the black test lead to the COM
jack and the red test lead to the
