- Do not attempt to make measurement in the presence of flammable gases. Otherwise, the use of the instrument may cause sparking, which can lead to an explosion.

- Never attempt to use the instrument if its surface or your hand is wet

- Do not exceed the maximum allowable input of any measuring range.

- Never open the Battery cover during a measurement.

- To avoid electrical shock by touching the equipment under test or its surroundings, be sure to wear insulated protective gear. - Never measure current while the test leads are inserted into the input terminals.

- Test leads to be used for voltage measurements shall be rated as appropriate for Measurement Category III or IV according to IEC 61010-031 and shall have a voltage rating of 600V or higher.

- Barriers on the instrument body and the test leads provide protection to keep your fingers and hands from touching an object under test. Keep your fingers and hands behind the barriers during measurement.

WARNING

- Never attempt to make measurement if any abnormal conditions, such as broken case and exposed metal parts are found on the instrument or test leads.

- Verify proper operation on a known source before use or take online on a email of the infestation of the instrument.

- Firmly attach the caps to the test leads when performing measurements in CAT III or higher test environments. When KEW2127R and the test leads are combined and used together, whichever is lower category & voltage to earth either of them belong to is applied.

- Do not rotate the Function Switch if the instrument and the equipment under test are connected.

- Do not install substitute parts or make any modification to the instrument. For repair or re-calibration, return the instrument

CAUTION

- Use of this instrument is limited to domestic, commercial and light industry applications. Strong electromagnetic interference or strong magnetic fields, generated by large currents, may cause malfunction of the instrument. - Connect the test leads to the terminals firmly.

- This instrument isn't water proofed. Keep away from water. - Do not pull or twist the test leads to prevent the risk of damage.

4. ACV / DCV (PEAK / Frequency) Measurement

DANGER

- Before starting a measurement, ensure that the Function switch is set to the appropriate position

- Do not exceed the rated voltage (600V) and the categorations of the instrument.

- Keep your fingers and hands behind the barrier during measurement.

(1) Set the Function switch to ACV or DCV position. For PEAK or frequency measurement, set the switch to ACV and press the SELECT key. (Frequency is ACV only).

(2) Firmly contact the test leads to V/Ω and COM terminals.

5. Resistance / Capacitance (Continuity / Diode) Measurement

WARNING

Never use the instrument on an energized circuit. Discharge the capacitor before starting a capacitance measurement.

(1) Set the Function switch to Resistance or Capacitance position. For Continuity measurement, set the switch to Resistance and press the SELECT key. For Diode measurement, set the switch to Capacitance and press the SELECT key.

(2) Firmly connect the test leads to V/Q and COM terminals.

Resistance

Bamps less than 90Ω

NOTE

- LCD shows "OL" when the test leads are open.

(except for capacitance measurement) - The LCD shows "OL" if the test lead connection is reversed for diode measurement

6. Other Functions

Data Hold HOLD

Press the Hold key. The LCD shows * H mark and the reading will be held. Press the Data Hold Key again to release the display.

- Backlight functioning

Press the HOLD key 1 sec or longer to turn on the backlight. Press the HOLD key another 1 sec or longer to turn it off. The light automatically turns off in 1 min.

- Low battery indication

The LCD shows * MAT * mark when the batteries fall below the normal operating voltage.

• Sleep Function
  Automatically powers off the instrument in about 10min after the last switch operation. Buzzer keeps five lines one minute before entering into the Sleep mode, and also one time just before entering into the mode. To exit from the Sleep mode, rotate the Function switch or press any key. To disable the Sleep function, press the HOLD key and power on the instrument.
  Confirm that the LCD shows "POFF" about 1 sec. Sleep function is disabled in the PEAK hold mode.
• PEAK Hold (PEAK) function
  Press the SELECT key on ACA, ACV or DCV function to start PEAK measurement. The LCD shows * 800* and updates the max measured value repeatedly during a measurement.

Function	Range	Display Range	Response time
ACA(Auto Range)	999.9A	0.0, 0.6 – 999.9A	10ms(sine wave)
	1500A	1000 – 1574A
ACV	90.0V	0.0, 0.8 – 944.9V	10ms(sine wave)
DCV	60.0V	0.0, 0.8 – 629.9V	1ms

On ACA or ACV function, the displayed value is peak value. Therefore, when measuring a sine wave, the displayed value will be 2 of the rms PEAK value.

Peak value displayed on DCV function has larger absolute value. When a negative voltage value has a larger absolute value than a positive voltage value, the negative voltage value will be displayed.

- NCV Function

Red LED for NCV lights up at All functions except for OFF when an electric field exceeding AC70V is detected by the sensor installed in Current Sensor. It indicates a presence of voltage in an electrical circuit or equipment without touching them.

△ DANGER

- The LED may not light up due to installation condition electrical circuit or equipment. Never touch the circuit under test to avoid possible danger even if the LED for NCV doesn't light up.

- The way you hold or place the instrument or externa voltages may affect NCV indication.

NCV Sensor can detect electrical field only from the direction indicated in the below figure.

Put the fixed element (left side) closer to the conductor under test.

Detection against in-wall outlet is impossible.

7. Battery Replacement

WARNING

- Replace the batteries when a Low Battery Voltage warning

"BAIT" mark is indicated on the LCD. Otherwise, precise measurement cannot be made. If halltries are completely

exhausted, the LCD goes blank without showing "BATT"

mark.

- Do not try to replace the batteries if the surface of the instrument is wet.

- Disconnect the test leads from the object under test and power off the instrument before opening the Battery Compartment Cover for battery replacement.

CAUTION

- Do not mix old and new batteries. - Install batteries in correct polarity as indicated in the Battery Compartment.

(1) Set the Function Switch to "OFF" position.

(2) Unscrew and remove the Battery Compartment Cover on the instrument.

(3) Replace the batteries observing correct polarity. Use new two AAA 1.5V batteries.

(4) Install the Battery Compartment Cover and tighten the screw.
