Not being nasty, but if you don't know, then give up. Ask someone who knows how to use one.

FWIW, for a continuation test, you need to use the continuity test function, aka the "beep test"......

The crude way of doing it is to tap both probes together and turn the control until it beeps.....

However, some mutlimeters don't have contunity test, hence you have to do it the "voltage drop" way....that's when you give it to somebody who's qualified
