¶ How To Operate
You should be familiar with how to operate this tool after completing an induction. However, a quick reference guide is included below to assist you.
Note: never play with electricity unless you know what you are doing. Even at low voltages you can still receive a shock! Never measure mains voltages unless you are a qualified electrician.
¶ Before Use
- Insert the cables into the common, and voltage, current (< 400mA) or current (400mA - 10A) connectors.
Do not measure voltage with the probes inserted into the current holes, or current with the probes inserted into the voltage hole. Doing so will damage the multimeter.
- Turn the meter on to the correct setting.
- Push the probes onto the thing you want to measure.
¶ During Use
- Do not push too hard, but a solid connection is required for an accurate reading.
¶ After Use
- Turn off, then wrap cables around the multimeter and return to it's home.
