Please read these instructions carefully before use and retain for future
reference.
This instrument is designed and manufactured in compliance with: G84793,
lEC61010-1, IEC61010-2-030 CAT III 1000V & CAT IV 600V, Pollution Degree 2 and
Double Insulation standards.
• Check the test leads, probes and case insulation before using. If you nd any
breakage or abnormality, or you consider the device is broken, stop using the
device immediately.
• When using the test probes, keep your ngers behind the nger protection ring.
• Do not use the meter with the back cover open.
• Select appropriate test range for measurements.
• Ensure all inputs are less than the range selected otherwise it may cause electrical
shock or meter damage.
• Do not change the range selector position during voltage or current
measurements.
• Do not apply a voltage over 1000V between COM terminal and ground.
• Take caution when working voltages are above 60V DC or 30V AC rms.
• Do not connect the meter to voltage signals when the range selector is on current,
resistance, diode or continuity range.
• When measuring current, each single measurement should be shorter than 10
seconds. For current values over 5A, the wait period between each measurement
must be longer than 15 minutes.
• When a measurement has been completed, disconnect the testing probes from
the circuit under test.
• Replace the batteries as soon as the low battery indicator appears on the display.
• Remove dead batteries from the meter or if it is not going to be used for a long
time.
• Never mix old and new batteries together, or different types of batteries.
• Never dispose of batteries in a re, or attempt to recharge ordinary batteries.
• Before replacing the battery, turn off the meter and disconnect all the test probes.
• To prolong battery life turn off the meter after use.
• CAT III: Measurement category III is for measurements performed in the building
installation. Examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit-breakers,
and wiring, such as cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches and socket-outlets
in the xed installation, and equipment for industrial application and some other
equipment such as stationary motors with permanent connection to the xed
installation.
• Only use test leads and probes that are in compliance with IEC 61010-031, and
rated CAT III 1000V.

• Connect the test lead in serial to the circuit to be tested.
The measured value shows on the display.
• 72-2605,72-10405 and 72-2610: displays effective value
of sine wave (mean value response).
• 72-10415: displays the true rms value.
Notes:
• If the current to be measured is unknown, choose the maximum measuring range
and reduce it step by step until a satisfactory reading is obtained.
• Disconnect from the circuit under test when changing the range.
• If the display only shows “OL”, it indicates the measured current is out of range. In
this case, turn the range selector to a higher range.
• For safety, each measurement time for >5A current should be less than 10
seconds and the interval time between 2 measurements should be greater than 15
minutes.
Measuring Resistance
• Insert the red test lead into the Ω terminal and the black
test lead into the COM terminal.
• Set the rotary switch to Ω resistance measurement (Ω) is
default or press BLUE button to select Ω measurement
mode.
• Connect the test leads across with the object being
measured. If there is lead on the resistor or SMT
resistor, it is more convenience to use the included multipurpose socket to carry out testing. The measured value
shows on the display.
Warning
To avoid damages to the Meter or to the devices under test, disconnect circuit power
and discharge all the high-voltage capacitors before measuring resistance.
To avoid harm to yourself, do not input higher than DC 60V or AC 30V voltages.
Notes
The test leads can add 0.2Ω to 0.5Ω of error so to obtain precision readings, short
circuit the terminals and use REL measurement function to automatically subtract the
short circuit value from the reading measured.
For high resistance measurement >1MΩ, it is normal for it to take several seconds to
obtain a stable reading.
The display will show OL if the tested resistance is greater than the maximum range of
the meter.
• When resistance measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection
between the testing leads and the circuit under test, and remove the testing leads
away from the input terminals of the Meter.

Testing for continuity
• Insert the red test lead into the Ω terminal and the
black test lead into the COM terminal.
• Set the rotary switch to terminal.
• The buzzer sounds continuously if the resistor to be
tested is <10Ω
• The buzzer does not sound if the resistor to be tested
is >35Ω
• When continuity testing has been completed,
disconnect the connection between the testing leads and the circuit under test,
and remove the testing leads away from the input terminals of the Meter.
Testing Diodes
• Insert the red test lead into the Ω terminal and the black
test lead into the COM terminal.
• Set the rotary switch to terminal and press BLUE
button to select measurement.
• For forward voltage drop readings on any
semiconductor component place the red test lead on
the anode and the black test lead onto the cathode.
• The measured value shows on the display.
• When diode testing has been completed, disconnect the connection between the
testing leads and the item under test, and remove the testing leads away from the
input terminals of the Meter.
Note: A good diode should produce a forward voltage drop of 0.5V to 0.8V.
Capacitance measurement
• Insert the red test lead into the Ω terminal and the black test lead
into the COM terminal.
• Set the rotary switch to terminal and press BLUE button to
select nF measurement.
• The Meter will display a xed value as below which is the
Meters internal xed distributed capacitance value. To ensure
accuracy when measuring a small value of capacitance, use
REL to subtract this from the tested value.
• Connect the test leads across the object being measured.
• 72-2605, 72-10405, 72-2610 and 72-10415: is around 10nF
72-10415: is around 1nF.
• Alternatively, use the included multi-purpose socket for measuring capacitors with
leads or SMT capacitor. Insert the capacitor to be tested into the corresponding
“+” and “-” jack of the multi-purpose socket. This method is more stable and
suitable for small value of capacitance testing.
• OL is displayed if the tested capacitor is shorted or exceeds the maximum range.
• When capacitance testing has been completed, disconnect the connection
between the testing leads and the item under test, and remove the testing leads
away from the input terminals of the Meter.

all the connection between multi-purpose socket, transistor and
the Meter.
Frequency measurement
• Insert the red test lead into the Hz terminal and the black
test lead into the COM terminal.
• Set the rotary switch to Hz% frequency measurement
• Hz is default or press Hz% button to select Hz
measurement mode.
• Connect the test leads across the object being measured
and the value shows on the display.
• If you need to measure the duty cycle, press Hz% button
to select % measurement mode.
• When frequency measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection
between the testing leads and the circuit under test, and remove the testing leads
away from the input terminals of the Meter.
Temperature measurement 72-10405 and 72-2610 only
• Set the rotary switch to Co F

measured.
• After few seconds, the measured value shows on the
display.
• Press BLUE button to toggle between Co and Fo options.
Note To avoid measurement error especially low
temperature measurement, the ambient operating
temperature must not exceed 18oC~28oC.
• When temperature measurement has been completed,
disconnect the temperature probe from the object being measured, and remove
the temperature probe from the input terminals of the Meter.
