In schools, training centres, computer and self-help workshops, handling of measuring instruments must be super-
vised by trained personnel in a responsible manne
r.
Before measuring voltages, always make sure that the measuring instrument is not set to a measuring range for cur-
rents.
The
voltage between the connection points of the measuring device and the ground potential must not exceed 600 V
DC/AC in overvoltage category III or 1000 V DC/AC in overvoltage category II.
The test prods have to be removed from the measured object every time the measuring range is changed.
Be
especially careful when dealing with voltages higher than 25V AC or 35 V DC. Even at such voltages you can
receive a life-threatening electric shock when you come into contact with electric wires.
Check
the measuring device and its measuring lines for damage before each measurement. Never carry out any
measurements if the protecting insulation is defective (torn, ripped o
ff etc.)
To avoid an electric shock, make sure not to touch the connections/measuring points to be measured neither directly
nor
indirectly during measurement. During measuring, do not grip beyond the tangible grip range markings present on
the test prods.
Do
not use the multimeter just before, during or just after an electrical storm (electrical shock / high-energy overvolt-
ages!). Please make sure that your hands, your shoes, your clothing, the floor, switches and switching components
are dr
y.
Avoid an operation near:
- strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields
- transmitting aerials or HF generators.
since this could affect the measurement.
If
you have a reason to believe that the device can no longer be operated safely, disconnect it immediately and secure
it against being operated unintentionall
y. It can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible if:
- the device exhibits visible damage,
- the device does not operate any longer and
- the device was stored under unfavourable conditions for a long period of time or
- the device was exposed to extraordinary stress in transit.
Do
not switch the measuring instrument on immediately after it has been taken from a cold to a warm environment.
Condensation
water that forms might destroy your device. Leave the device switched off and wait until it has reached
room temperature.
Do
not leave the packaging material lying around carelessly since such materials can become dangerous toys in the
hands of children.
You should also heed the safety instructions in each chapter of these instructions.
Product Description
The multimeter (referred to as DMM in the following) indicates measured values on the digital display. The measuring
value display of the DMM comprises 4000 counts (count = smallest display value).
The measuring device can be used for do-it-yourself or for professional applications.
For better readabilit
y, the DMM can also be mounted with the clip on the rear.
The
mA current section shows an absolute novelty. With this measuring device, it is no longer necessary to replace an
accidentally triggered m
A fuse. The installed PTC fuse resets automatically after tripping.
Rotary switch (4)
The individual measuring functions are selected using a rotary switch for which
„auto
range“, the automatic range selection, is active. The appropriate range of
measurement is set for each application individuall
y.
With
the button „SELECT“ (9), you switch to a sub-function if the measuring func-
tion
is double assigned (e.g. switching resistance measuring - diode test and con-
tinuity test or
AC/DC switching in the current range).
If
the rotary switch is set to „OFF“, the measuring device is switched off. Always
turn the measuring device o
ff when it is not in use.
Prior to working with the measuring device, you first have to insert the enclosed batteries.
Insert
the battery as described in the chapter „Cleaning and Maintenance“. A 9V block battery is required for voltage
supply. These are supplied with the device.

b) Current measuring „A“
Do not exceed the maximum permitted input values. Do not contact circuits or parts of cir-
cuits if there could be voltages higher than 25 V ACrms or 35 V DC present within them. Mor-
tal danger!
The voltage in the measuring circuit may not exceed 250 V.
Measuring
in the 10 A range may only be performed for max. 10 seconds and at 15 minute
intervals.
Current
measuring operations are possible in three ranges. The first range is from 0 to 4000µA, the second from 0 to
400mA and the third from 0 to 10 A. All current measuring ranges are protected against overload.
The m
A measuring input has a self-resetting PTC fuse; fuse changes are not required.
If the mA fuse tripped (measured value does not change etc.), turn the DMM off (OFF) and wait
about five minutes. The self-resetting fuse cools down and then functions again.
Proceed as follows to measure DC voltages:
- If
you want to measure currents of up to max. 4000µA, set the rotary switch to
position
„µA“ or to position „mA“ respectively up to max. 400 mA or to position
„A“ for max. 10
A. The display shows „DC“.
- Plug
the red measuring lead into the 10 A measuring socket (with currents > 400
mA)
or into the mAµA measuring socket (with currents <400 mA). Plug the black
measuring lead into the COM socket.
- Now
connect the two test prods in series with the object to be measured (battery,
circuit
etc.); the display indicates the polarity of the measured value together with
the currently measured value.
As soon as a minus „-“ appears for the direct voltage measuring in
front
of the measuring value, the measured voltage is negative (or
the measuring tips have been mixed up).
After
measuring, remove the measuring leads from the measuring object and turn
the DMM o
ff. Turn the rotary switch to „OFF“.
Proceed as described above to measure alternating currents.
Press „SELECT“ (9) to switch to the
AC range. „AC“ appears on the display.
Pressing this button again, takes you back etc.

will
be indicated on the display. Wait until the display has stabilised. With resis-
tances of >1 MOhm, this may take a few seconds.
- As soon as „OL“ (overload) appears on the display, you have exceeded the mea-
suring range or the measuring circuit has been broken.
- After measuring, remove the measuring leads from the measuring object and turn the DMM off. Turn the rotary
switch to „OFF“.
If you carry out a resistance measurement, make sure that the measuring points which you contact
with
the measuring prods are free from dirt, oil, solderable lacquer or similar. An incorrect

suring range.
- After measuring, remove the measuring leads from the measuring object and
turn the DMM o
ff. Turn the rotary switch to „OFF“.
REL function
The REL function allows a reference value measurement to avoid possible line losses which may caused e.g. during
resistance measurements. For this purpose, the current indicated value is set to zero. A new reference value is set.
Press the „REL
“ button to activate this measuring function. The display shows „“. The automatic measuring range
selection is deactivated no
w.
To turn this function off, keep the button „REL“ depressed until „“ goes off.
Low Imp. 400 k function
This function may only be used for voltages of a max. of 250 V and a max. of 3 seconds!
This measuring function enables the reduction of the measuring impedance from 10 MW to 400 kW. Through the
reduction
of the measuring impedance, possible phantom voltages are suppressed, which could falsify the mea-
suring result.
Press this button during voltage measurement (max. 250 V) for a max. of 3 seconds. After release, the multimeter has
the normal measuring impedance of 10 M
.
Auto power OFF function
The DMM turns off automatically after 30 minutes if no button or switch is operated. This function saves battery pow-
er and extends the service life.
To reactivate the DMM after automatic shutdown, use the rotary switch or press the „REL“ or „SELECT“ button.
You can turn the auto power-off function manually.
To do so, turn the measuring device off (OFF). Keep the button „SELECT“ depressed and turn the DMM on at the
rotary switch.
This function remains inactive until the measuring device is turned off via the rotary switch.
Maintenance and cleaning
General information
To ensure the accuracy of the multimeter over an extended period of time, it should be calibrated once a year.
Apart from occasional cleaning and fuse replacements, the multimeter requires no servicing.
Information on changing the battery and fuse appears belo
w.
Regularly check the technical safety of the instrument and measuring lines, e.g. check for dam-
age to the housing or squeezing etc.
Cleaning
Always observe the following safety instructions before cleaning the device:
Live components may be exposed if covers are opened or parts are removed (unless this can
be done without tools).
The
connected lines must be disconnected from the measuring device and all measuring
objects prior to cleaning or repairing the device. Switch the DMM off.
Do
not use any carbon-containing cleaning agents or petrol, alcohol or the like to clean the product. These could cor-
rode
the surface of the measuring instrument. The fumes are furthermore a health hazard and are explosive. More-
ove
r, you should not use sharp-edged tools, screwdrivers or metal brushes or similar for cleaning.
For cleaning the device or the display and the measuring lines, use a clean, fuzz-free, antistatic slightly damp cloth.
Changing the 10 A fuse
