4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Kudzima/Kubatidza uye Kuratidza

Turn the rotary dial from 'OFF' to any desired function to power on the multimeter. To power off, turn the dial back to 'OFF'. The device features an automatic power-off function to conserve battery life. Press the LED button to activate or deactivate the display backlight for improved visibility.

4.2 Kuyera Mabasa

Rotate the dial to select the desired measurement function. Use the MODE button to toggle between different sub-functions within a dial position (e.g., AC/DC voltage, NCV/LIVE).

1. Voltage Kuyera (AC/DC):
   Set the dial to 'V~' for AC voltage kana 'V=' yeDC voltage. Connect the test leads in parallel to the circuit or component being measured. The display will show the voltage kuverenga.
2. Chiyero Chazvino (AC/DC):
   Set the dial to 'A~' for AC current or 'A=' for DC current. Ensure the red test lead is in the appropriate current jack (10A or µAmA). Connect the multimeter in series with the circuit.
3. Resistance Chiyero (Ω):
   Set the dial to 'Ω'. Connect the test leads across the component. Ensure the circuit is de-energized before measuring resistance.
4. Continuity Test ():
   Set the dial to 'Ω' and press MODE until the continuity icon appears. A buzzer will sound and a green LED will flash if continuity is detected (low resistance).
5. Diode Test ():
   Set the dial to 'Ω' and press MODE until the diode icon appears. Connect the test leads across the diode.
6. Kuyerwa kweCapacitance (F):
   Set the dial to 'F'. Connect the test leads across the capacitor. Ensure the capacitor is discharged before measurement.
7. NCV (Asingabatike Voltage) / LIVE (Live Wire Detection):
   Set the dial to 'NCV LIVE'. The multimeter will detect AC voltage without direct contact. 'L' indicates a live wire with voltage, accompanied by a red LED flash and buzzer. 'EF' indicates non-contact detection.
