12.4 HOLD function

This function freezes the current reading on the display so that you can record it for
future reference.
When testing live wires, ensure that this function is disabled before
taking any measurements. Otherwise, a false measuring result is
simulated!
Press the "HOLD" button to enable this feature. The multimeter will beep and
"HOLD" will be displayed.
To disable the hold feature, press the "HOLD" button again or change the measure-
ment mode.

12.5 Automatic shut-off function

The multimeter switches off automatically after a preset time if no buttons are
pressed or the control dial is not used. This function saves battery power and ex-
tends the battery life. The time symbol will be displayed at the top left when the
automatic shut-off feature is enabled.
The multimeter will beep one time approx. 1 minute before it turns off. You will hear
a long beep when the multimeter switches off. Pressing any button or moving the
control dial interrupts the shut-off sequence.
To switch the multimeter back on, move the control dial over the "OFF" position or
press the "SELECT" button.
The automatic shut-off feature can be adjusted using the setup function and disa-
bled manually.

12.6 SELECT function

Some measurement modes have additional sub-modes. The sub-modes are marked
in grey around the control dial. To switch to a sub-mode, press the "SELECT" button.
Press the button again to switch to the next sub-mode.

The setup menu serves to configure various system parameters according to your
needs. To select the setup menu, press the "SETUP" button. Use the function but-
