    DM-100 Digital Multimeter have selected, change to a higher range. On some low DC and AC voltage ranges, with the test leads not connected to a device, the display may show a random, changing reading. This is normal and is caused by the high-input sensitivity. The reading will stabilize and give a proper measurement when connected to the circuit.
