CAUTION:
Always connect the test leads to the instrument

inputs first before connecting the DUT to avoid
potential shock hazard.

NOTE:
The capacitance measurement function is used for

measuring general purpose electrolytic capacitors.


Follow these steps to make a capacitance measurement.

4.

Connect the black test lead to the COM input. This will connect to

the negative side of your capacitor.

5.

Connect the red test lead to the V.Ω.C input. This will connect to

the positive side of your capacitor.

6.

Probe with the test leads to the DUT and take the measured reading

on display.
