Please read the manual carefully before use.
• Wear protective equipment to avoid damage caused by arc discharge when the live conductor is exposed.
• Before each use check the product carefully to ensure no damage.
• Hold the instrument by the handle when in use.
• Before changing the battery ensure unit is not connected to live wires.

Operating Instructions
Measuring AC/DC voltage/HZ
1. Select AC voltage and Hz or DC voltage.
2. Insert the red probe in the red jack (positive terminal) and black probe in the black jack (COM terminal).
3. Touch the red and black probe to item under test.
4. The value will appear on the LCD.
Note: Do not exceed 600V (AC/DC) as there is a risk of electric shock and potential damage to the instrument that may occur.
Measure Resistance/Diode/Circuit On/Off/Capacity
• Insert the red probe in the red jack (positive terminal) and black probe in the black jack (COM terminal).
• Connect the probe in parallel with the tested component to measure.
• The value will appear on the LCD.
Note: When measuring the voltage/capacity/diode range, do not exceed DC 60 V or AC 30V to avoid personal injury.

Measuring AC/DC Current
AC current
• Select your desired range for AC current (600mA~, 6,000mA~, 60A~). Open the clamp head and attach the wire on the hook. Ensure that the hooks are rmly closed. Value will display on the LCD.
DC current
• Press the SELECT button and enter in the DC current range (6,000mA, 60A). Press the ZERO button to bring the reading back to zero. Press it multiple times if pressing it once doesn’t work. Open the clamp head and attach the wire on the hook. Ensure that the hooks are rmly closed. Value will display on the LCD.
NOTE: Pull out the testing probe to avoid electric shock. The clamp should be in the same direction as the measured object in process of zeroing obtain accurate reading because of the product’s high sensitivity.

Measuring Non-Contact Field Measurement
To measure the detected AV voltage or magnetic eld close the clamp around the object to detect the motion. The analog quantity is “EF” when it is ≤ critical voltage and will display as “———“, different variations of buzzing will distinguish the intensity of detected eld.
Note: When the unit is in NVC measurement mode, pull out the testing probe to avoid electric shock.
Backlight
Press the HOLD button for 2 seconds to turn on the LCD backlight.
Automatically Turns Off
If the unit is left unused for 15 minutes it will automatically turn off to save power. Press the SELECT button in shutdown mode to power it on. The buzzer will make 5 sounds prompting the cancellation of the auto off function. Turn it off and then restart, the auto off function will be recovered. The buzzer will send 5 continuous alarming sounds, and then 1 long alarming sound before the product automatically shuts down. When the auto off function is canceled, it will send 5 alarming sounds every 15 minutes.

Functions
When pressing any function button or turning any switch the buzzer will make a “beep” noise. When the measuring voltage or current the buzzer will also send a continuous “beep” intermittent sound to warm the outrange. The functions are: AC/DC voltage >about 600V, mA AC/DC current >620mA (or 6200mA), A AC/DC large current >62A.
Battery Replacement
1. Ensure the power switch is set to “OFF” and pull the probe out of input jack.
2. Remove the battery cover with a screwdriver.
3. Install two new AAA batteries.
4. Replace the cover and screw in the battery cover.
