CAUTIONS

•Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or death.

Read and understand this user manual before operating the meter.

•Always remove the test leads before replacing the battery or fuses.

•Inspect the condition of the test leads and the meter itself for any

damage before operating the meter.

•Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are greater

than 25VAC rms or 35VDC. These voltages are considered a shock

hazard.

•Always discharge capacitors and remove power from the device under

test before performing Diode, Resistance or Continuity tests.

•Voltage checks on electrical outlets can be difficult and misleading

because of the uncertainty of connection to the recessed electrical

contacts. Other means should be used to ensure that the terminals are

not "live".

•If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer,

the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

•This device is not a toy and must not reach children’s hands. It contains

hazardous objects as well as small parts that the children could swallow.

In case a child swallows any of them, please contact a physician

immediately

•Do not leave batteries and packing material lying around unattended;

they can be dangerous for children if they use them as toys

•In case the device is going to be unused for an extended period of time,

remove the batteries to prevent them from training

•Expired or damaged batteries can cause cauterization on contact with

the skin. Always, therefore, use suitable hand gloves in such cases

•See that the batteries are not short-circuited. Do not throw batteries into

the fire.

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.

NON-CONTACT AC VOLTAGE DETECTOR

The EX310 can detect the presence of AC voltage (from 100 to 600VAC) simply

by being held very near to a voltage source.

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 battery is fresh by confirming characters appear on the LCD when the

function dial is turned to any position. Do not attempt to use the meter as an AC

Voltage Detector if the battery is weak or bad.

NON-CONTACT VOLTAGE (NCV)

The NCV function works on any rotary switch position.

1. Test the detector on a known live circuit before use.

2. Press and hold the NCV button for the duration of

the test. The meter will beep once when the button

is pushed.

3. Hold the top of the meter very close to the voltage

source as shown.

4. If voltage is present, the rim of the LCD display will

flash a bright orange and an audible warning will

sound.

Model EX310-EU-ENG – V7.2– 05/2008

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 on it. 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 voltages if a motor on the circuit is being

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

meter.

1. Set the function switch to the 600 VAC

position.

2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into

the negative COM jack. Insert red test lead

banana plug into the positive Vjack.

3. Touch the black test probe tip to the

neutral side of the circuit.

4. Touch the red test probe tip to the “hot”

side of circuit.

5. Read the voltage in the display.

DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS

CAUTION: Do not measure DC voltages if a motor on the circuit is being

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

meter.

1. Set the function switch to the highest VDC

position.

2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the

negative COM jack.

Insert the red test lead banana plug into the

positive Vjack.

3. Touch the black test probe tip to the negative

side of the circuit. Touch the red test probe

tip to the positive side of the circuit.

4. Read the voltage in the display. Move the

function switch to successively lower VDC

positions to obtain a higher resolution reading.

BATTERY VOLTAGE TEST

CAUTION: Do not measure batteries while they are installed in the devices

they are powering. The batteries must be removed from installations before

tests can be made.

1. Set the function switch to the 1.5V or 9V

BAT switch position. Use the 1.5V position

for ‘AAA’, ‘AA’, ‘C’, ‘D’, and other 1.5V

batteries. Use the 9V position for square 9V

transistor batteries.

2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into

the negative COM jack.

Insert the red test lead banana plug into the

positive Vjack.

3. Touch the black test probe tip to the negative

side of the battery. Touch the red test probe

tip to the positive side of the battery.

4. Read the voltage in the display.

AC / DC CURRENT MEASUREMENTS

CAUTION: Do not make current measurements at 10 Amps for longer than

30 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds may cause damage to the meter and/or

the test leads.

1. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack.
