Operating Instructions

WARNING: Risk of electrocution. High-voltage circuits, both AC and DC, are

very dangerous and should be measured with great care.

NOTE: On some low AC and DC voltage ranges, with the test leads not

connected to a device, the display may show a random, changing reading. This

is normal and is caused by the high-input sensitivity. The reading will stabilize

and give a proper measurement when connected to a circuit.

NOTE: The supplied black test leads (standard test lead and alligator clip probe)

have protective plugs that must be removed before being inserted in the bottom

of the meter. The protective apparatus must be removed from the end of the

lead that plugs into the meter.

NON-CONTACT AC VOLTAGE DETECTOR

WARNING: Test the AC voltage detector on a known live circuit before each

use.

WARNING: Before using the meter in the AC Voltage Detector mode, verify that

the batteries are fresh by confirming characters appear on the LCD when the

function dial is turned to the voltage (V) position. Do not attempt to use the

meter as an AC Voltage Detector if the batteries are weak or bad.

With the function switch set to the NCV position, this instrument can detect the

presence of AC voltage (from 50 to 600VAC) simply by being held very near to a

voltage source. The NCV function works when the meter’s function dial is placed in

the NCV position only.

1. Ensure that the retractable test lead is fully

retracted.

2. Disconnect the common (negative) test

lead from the bottom of the meter.

3. Put the function switch to NCV position.

4. Test the detector on a known live circuit.

5. Hold the top of the meter very close to the

voltage source as shown.

6. Adjust the sensitivity dial to the highest

sensitivity position (fully counter-clockwise) and then lower the sensitivity as

required.

7. If voltage is present, the light at the top of the meter will flash and the alarm

will sound.

AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS

WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. The probe tips may not be long enough to

contact the live parts inside some 240V outlets for appliances because the

contacts are recessed deep in the outlets. As a result, the reading may show 0

volts when the outlet actually has voltage present. Make sure the probe tips are

touching the metal contacts inside the outlet before assuming that no voltage is

present.

CAUTION: Do not measure AC voltage if a motor on the circuit is being

switched ON or OFF. Large surges may occur that can damage the meter.

1. Set the function dial to the V

position.

2. Use the FUNC button to select

AC.

3. Insert the black test lead banana

plug into the negative jack at the

bottom of the meter.

4. Unscrew the retracting nut

(clockwise) to draw out the

positive test lead.

5. Touch the black test probe tip to

the neutral side of the circuit.
