Configuración e instalación da batería

The multimeter requires one 9V battery for operation. Ensure the battery is correctly installed before first use.

1. Localice o compartimento da batería na parte traseira do multímetro.
2. Abra a tapa do compartimento da batería.
3. Introduza unha pila nova de 9 V, respectando a polaridade correcta (+/-).
4. Pecha a tapa do compartimento da batería de forma segura.

Connect the included test leads to the appropriate jacks on the multimeter. The red lead typically connects to the positive (+) or VΩmA jack, and the black lead connects to the common (COM) jack.

Instrucións de funcionamento

To operate the multimeter, turn the rotary switch to the desired function and range. The digital display will show the measurement. Always select a range higher than the expected measurement to avoid damaging the device.

Funcións de medición:

• DC Voltage (DCV): Used for measuring direct current voltage. Select the appropriate DCV range (e.g., 200mV, 2V, 20V, 200V, 250V).
• Vol. ACtage (ACV): Used for measuring alternating current voltage. Select the appropriate ACV range (e.g., 200V, 250V).
• Corrente continua (DCA): Used for measuring direct current. Select the appropriate DCA range (e.g., 200µA, 2mA, 20mA, 200mA, 5A).
• Resistencia (Ω): Used for measuring electrical resistance in ohms. Select the appropriate Ohm range (e.g., 200Ω, 2KΩ, 20KΩ, 200KΩ, 2000KΩ).
• Proba de diodo: Used to check the functionality of diodes.
• Proba de transistor (hFE): Used to measure the DC current gain of transistors.

For detailed instructions on specific measurement procedures, refer to specialized electrical guides or instructional videos. Always ensure proper safety precautions are followed when working with electricity.

Mantemento

To ensure the longevity and accuracy of your multimeter, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Manteña o multímetro limpo e seco. Limpe cun pano suave e seco.amp pano; non empregue produtos de limpeza abrasivos nin disolventes.
• Substitúa a batería de 9 V cando apareza o indicador de batería baixa na pantalla para garantir lecturas precisas.
• The circuit is fuse and diode protected. If the multimeter stops functioning correctly, check the internal fuse (refer to a qualified technician for fuse replacement if necessary).
• Garde o multímetro nun lugar fresco e seco, lonxe da luz solar directa e de temperaturas extremas.

Resolución de problemas

If you encounter issues with your multimeter, consider the following common solutions:

• Sen pantalla ou pantalla escura: Check and replace the 9V battery.
• "OL" or Overrange Indicator: The measured value exceeds the selected range. Switch to a higher range setting.
• Lecturas incorrectas: Ensure test leads are properly connected, the correct function and range are selected, and the battery is not low.
• No continuity/resistance reading: Check if the test leads are damaged or if the internal fuse has blown.

For persistent issues or complex repairs, it is recommended to consult a qualified electrician or technician.
