Statement of accuracy in ± (% of reading + display error in counts (= number of smallest points)). The
accuracy is valid for one year at a temperature of +23°C ± 5°C, and at a relative humidity of less than
75 %, non-condensing.

Possible cause
Is the battery flat or is the high-cap
(VC290) discharged?
Is the wrong measurement function
active (AC/DC)?
Did you use the wrong measuring
sockets?
Is the fuse defect?
Is the Hold function activated in the
VC290 (display "H")

Check the display (AC/DC)
measurement value change and switch
the function if necessary.
Compare the connection with that shown
