Tips

Always verify the meter’s safety rating matches your working environment. For temperature measurements, ensure the K-type probe is properly connected and the meter is set to the correct mode. Use the relative function to compensate for lead resistance when measuring low resistances. Store the meter in the included bag to protect it from dust and impact.
