Data Hold Button
• The data hold button is used to capture and hold a reading

on the LCD display.

• Press the button again to release the reading.

LCD Display
• 3-3/4 digit display with maximum indication of 3999.
• Function symbols, units, analog bargraph, low battery sym-

bol, min/max symbols, relative symbol, and zero symbol are
included.

Function Buttons 
DC A/W ZERO Button
• The DC A/W Zero button is used to zero out the DCA resid-

ual value.

• Press this button until the LCD displays a zero value and

the zero symbol.

• This button does not force the meter into manual range

mode.

• Press and hold the DC A/W Zero button for 2 seconds to

disable this function.

∆

• The 

∆ 

REL button captures the current reading and sets it

to zero to be used as a zero reference value for all subse-
quent measurements.

• Press this button until the LCD displays a zero value and

the 

∆

symbol.

• This function can also be used to offset the value caused by

the residual magnetism remaining in the core for DC current
or wattage measurements.

• This button will force the meter into manual range mode.
• The relative function will be disabled if the Min/Max func-

tion is enabled.

• Press and hold the  

∆ 

REL button for 2 seconds to disable

this function.

WARNING!
1. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEED THESE

RATINGS:
- Voltage is not to exceed 800 Volts.
- Wattage, Resistance and Continuity functions are not to
be performed on circuits capable of delivering greater than
600 Volts.
- Current measurements are not to be performed on cir-
cuits capable of delivering greater than 500 Volts

2. To avoid electrical shock hazards and/or damage to the

meter:
- Do not exceed the voltage ratings for the meter.  Use
caution when measuring voltage.
- Do not use during electrical storms.  AC power sources
with inductive loads or electrical storms may result in high
voltage.  High energy transients can damage meter and pre-
sent a dangerous shock hazard.
- Turn off power to the circuit or device being measured
before taking resistance and capacitance measurements.
Fully discharge all capacitors before measuring.

3. Ensure meter is in proper working order before using.

Visually inspect meter for damage.  Performing a continuity
check can verify proper operation.  If the meter reading goes
from overload to zero, this typically means the meter is in
proper working order.

4. Visually inspect leads for damage before using.  Replace if

insulation is damaged or leads appear suspect.

5. Never ground yourself when taking electrical measurements.

Do not touch exposed metal pipes, outlets, fixtures etc.
Keep your body isolated from ground by using dry clothing,
rubber shoes, mats, or any other approved insulating mater-
ial.  Keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the
probes.  Work with others.

6. Before beginning all unknown measurements, set meter to

highest possible range.

7. Before breaking a circuit for testing, turn off the power to the

circuit. When disconnecting from a circuit, disconnect the
hot lead first, then the common lead.

8. Disconnect the meter from the circuit before turning off any

indicator, including motors, transformers, and solenoids.
