do not attempt to measure voltages higher than 1000V, although readings
may be obtained.
To measure voltages, set up the Meter as Figure 3-1 and do the following:

AC measurement displays the True RMS value.
DC measurement displays the effective value of sine wave (mean value response).
When a ACV function is selected, you can press the Yellow Button to view the AC +
DC True RMS value in the primary display. To exit, please EXIT button.
