WARNING
The following instructions are intended to prevent personal injury such as
burn and electric shock. Be sure to follow them when using the meter:

1. Never use the meter for power lines exceeding 6 kVA.
2. Voltages above 70 VDC or 33 Vrms AC (46.7 V peak) are hazardous
to human body. Take care so as not to touch them.
3. Never input signals exceeding the maximum rated input value(see 1-3).
4. Never use the meter for measuring voltages of lines connected toequipment (e.g. motors) that generates induced or surge voltage
since it may exceed the maximum allowable overload input.
— 1 —05. Never use the meter near equipment which generates strong
electromagnetic waves or is charged.
06. Never use the meter if the meter or test leads are damaged or broken.
07. Never use the meter with the case or battery lid removed.
08. Be sure to use the fuse of the specified rating and specification.
09. During measurement, do not hold the test pin side of the flange of the test leads.
10. To start measurement, first connect the ground side (black test lead).
When disconnecting, the ground side must be disconnected last.
11. During measurement, do not change the meter to anotherfunction or range nor replace the plugs to other terminals.
12. Before starting measurement, make sure that the function and range are properly set.
13. Never use the meter when it is wet or with wet hands.
14. Be sure to use the specified type of test leads.
15. Never attempt repair or modification, except for battery and fuse replacement.
16. Inspect the meter at least once a year.
17. This meter is for indoor use only.

CAUTION

Correct measurement may not be performed when using themeter in the ferromagnetic / intense electric field such asplaces near a transformer, a high-current circuit, and a radio.

4-1 Power Switch & Function Switch
Turn this switch to turn on and off the power and select ameasuring function.
4-2 Measuring Function Selection: SELECT
When the 00000 button is pressed, the functions change asfollows:
DC voltage (000)• V position: DC voltage (000) AC voltage (000)•000/000/000 position: Resistance measurement (000) diode test (000)continuity check (000) resistance measurement (000)• µ A position : DC current (000) AC current (000) DC current (000)• mA position : DC current (000) AC current (000) DC current (000)• A position : DC current (000) AC current (000) DC current (000)4-3 Data Hold: DATA HOLD
When the 0000000 button is pressed, the value indicated will beheld. (“XX” will appear on the display.) The indicated value will
not change if the measurement input fluctuates.
When this button is pressed again, the hold status will becanceled and the meter will return to the measurement mode.
(“XX” will disappear from the display.)
Remarks:• The DATA HOLD button does not work with the Hz function.
4-4 Backlight:
When the (XX) button is held pressed for 2 seconds or longer, thebacklight will be turned on. To turn it off, hold this button pressedfor 2 seconds or longer again.
Remarks:• Because the (XX) button serves as the XXXXXX button also, when
the backlight is turned on, the data hold mode will be set. To cancel
the data hold mode, press this button momentarily (less than 2seconds) again.

— 6 —4-5 Range Hold: RANGE HOLD
When the XXXXXXX button is pressed, the meter will be set in the
manual mode and the range will be fixed. (“XXXXXX” will disappear
from the display.) In the manual mode, each time this button ispressed, the range changes. While checking the unit and decimal
point on the display, select the best range.
To return to the auto range, hold this button pressed for 1 secondor longer. (“XXXXXX” will appear on the display.)
Remarks:• The RANGE HOLD button does not work with the (000), (00), (00)and (00) functions.
4-6 Relative Measurement:
When the XXXXXX button is pressed, XX and XX will light and the
input value when the button was pressed will become 0 as thereference. To cancel it, press the button again.
Example: Display after pressing the button at DC 30.00 V input

Remarks:• This mode cannot be used with the Hz function. When a function otherthan (XX) is used, the range is fixed during relative measurement.
4-7 Auto Power Save
The tester enters “power save mode” automatically if it has been
operated for about 30 minutes. Please note, a small electric current frompower supply is present in Auto Power Save mode. Be sure to set thepower / function switch to “OFF” after measurement.
To cancel Auto Power Save function, turn the power / function switchfrom OFF position to any desired function while holding the ELECT
button pressed.
4-8 Battery Low Warning Indication
When the built-in batteries have been discharged and the voltage has
dropped to below about 2.4 V, “XXX” mark will appear in the display.
When this mark flickers or lights, replace both two batteries with new
ones.

4-9 AC Detection Method
This meter employs the root-mean-square value method andindicates the magnitude of AC as the same amount of work as DC.
Root-mean-square values of sinusoidal waves and such nonsinusoidal waves as square waves and chopping waves can bemeasured by the true RMS (Root Mean Square) circuit.
4-10 Crest Factor
The CR (crest factor) indicates the peak value of a signal by dividing
it by its root-mean-square value. With most common waveforms
such as sinusoidal wave and chopping wave, the crest factor isrelatively low. With waveforms similar to low duty cycle pulse trains,the crest factor is high. For the voltages and crest factors for typical
waveforms, see the table below.
Please measure the crest factor by 3 or less.

Remarks• Auto range only
• The data hold and relative functions cannot be
used.
• Sensitivity: 3 Vrms or over.
• Frequency less than 1 Hz cannot be measured.
• Input resistance ≧ Approx. 2 k• Because the input resistance is as low as approx.
2 k , a large amount of current will flow during
measurement. Never use the meter for measuring
circuits or devices having a small current capacity.
Never use the meter for measuring frequencies toground as the earth leakage breaker may trip.

* As the measurement of high current of 10 A or more is accompanied withheat generation, the continuous measurement time is limited to 5 minutes.
Also reserve an interval of 5 minutes or more between measurements.

* Accurate measurement may not be possible in places near atransformer, large-current line, etc. where a strong magnetic field ispresent or near radio equipment, etc. that generates a strong
electric field.
