2)Select the correct position of " Function Switch " &
" AC/DC Switch " before making measurements.
3) Place the RED Test Lead into the proper input terminal
before making measurements.
4) When make measurement, selecting the proper
measurement range by starting at the largest anticipated value and progressively selecting lower ranges the measurement falls within the proper range.
5) Remove either of the test leads from the circuit under
test when changing the measurement range.
6) Operate the instrument only in the ambient temperature
range of 32 - 122 (0 -50) and less than 80 % relative humidity.
7) Do not exceed the maximum rated voltage of each range
and input terminal.

c. Turn ignition switch to ON for a while. Display values
should indicate in LOW voltage value ( should under 1 V ). If not, bump engine until it reach.
d. If the above (c) point voltage display showed lower
than 0.2V, then the contact resistance of " Points " is normal, or it need to be changed.
6)APPLICATION 2 : to check the " BATTERY
LEAKAGE " condition ( Used the DC 2V range ) a. Connect BLACK TEST PROBE to NEG (-) battery.
Connect RED TEST PROBE to various spots on the surface of battery.

securely connect test leads in series with the load in which the current is be measured.
5-3 Resistance Measurement
1)Connect red test lead to " OHM " input terminal and black
test lead to " COM " input terminal.
2)Determine the highest anticipated resistance ( 200OHM,
2K, 20K, 200K , 2000K or 20 M ( K = 1000)) on the " function switch " and select to the corresponding position.

the " CAPACITOR " is good or not.
5-4 Temperature Measurement
1)Insert the plug of the Thermocouple Probe (optional)
into the " Temperature Probe Socket " ( 3-5, fig 1 ) , take care to observe the correct polarity.
2)Determine the or on the " Function Switch " and
select to the corresponding position.
3)
Consideration:
When the Thermocouple Probe is first plugged into the meter, or if the probe is changed, the plug must be allowed to stabilize at the same temperature of the socket, which is in thermal contact with the cold junction compensation device, if greatest accuracy is to be achieved. This will only take a couple of minutes and only applies if the plug of probe has previously been exposed to an ambient temperature different ot that meter.
5-5 Frequency Measurement

This range is exactly same as " DC 200 V " range. It can match optional adapter of " BATTERY TESTER (with a load) ", then can test the battery condition.
6. REPLACEMENT OF BATTERY
1)When the left corner of LCD display show "BAT" or " ", it
indicate a normal battery output of less than 6.5V - 7.5 V It is necessary to replace the battery. However, in-spec measurement may still be made for several hours after LOW BATTERY INDICATOR appears before the instrument become inaccurate.
