6.1. Тазалоо

Ишти жарнама менен сүртүңүзamp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents. Clean the terminals periodically with a cotton swab and alcohol to ensure good contact.

6.2. Батареяны алмаштыруу

When the battery indicator appears on the display, replace the batteries as described in the "Battery Installation" section (4.1). Always use two new AA batteries.

6.3. Сактагычты алмаштыруу

WARNING: To avoid injury or damage to the meter, replace blown fuses only with fuses of the specified type and rating.

If the meter fails to measure current, the fuse may be blown. Refer to the full user manual for detailed instructions on accessing and replacing the fuses. Typically, the meter uses two fuses: one for the mA/µA range and one for the A range.

6.4. Сактоо

If the meter is not used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage and damage. Store the meter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

9. Колдонуучунун кеңештери

Here are some general tips to enhance your experience and ensure safe operation of your digital multimeter:

• Always Start High: Белгисиз томду өлчөгөндөtage or current, always start with the highest range setting and work your way down. This prevents overloading the meter.
• Сыноолорду текшерүү: Before each use, visually inspect your test leads for any signs of damage (cracks, frayed insulation). Replace them immediately if damaged.
• Коопсуз байланыштар: Ensure test leads are firmly inserted into the correct input jacks and make good contact with the circuit points being measured.
• Тиркөө стендин колдонуңуз: The integrated kickstand allows for hands-free operation, improving safety and convenience.

• Understand "OL": An "OL" (Overload) reading typically means the value being measured is higher than the selected range or the meter's maximum capacity. It can also indicate an open circuit in resistance or continuity tests.
• Батареянын иштөө мөөнөтү: To conserve battery life, remember to turn off the multimeter when not in use.
