Technically, you don't. You need to calibrate a multimeter with something that is much more precise and accurate than a multimeter, such as a voltage, current, and resistance standard. Otherwise, it is not called a calibration.

What are the types of multi tester?
A Multimeter is an electronic instrument, every electronic technician and engineer’s widely used piece of test equipment. A multimeter is mainly used to measure the three basic electrical characteristics of voltage, current, and resistance. There are two types of multimeters: Analog Multimeter: The Analog Multimeter or VOM (Volt-Ohm-Milliammeter) is constructed using a moving coil meter and a pointer to indicate the reading on the scale. Digital Multimeter: We mostly used a multimeter is a digital multimeter (DMM). The DMM performs all functions from AC to DC other than analog. It has two probes positive and negative indicated with black and red color as shown in the figure. there are some best multimeters for HVAC.
What are the multimeter symbols?
Where can I get copy explaining what the symbols mean on a sperry multimeter and how to use them. Regards Frank
Why do you measure the winding resistance with a multimeter?
Actually, measuring winding resistance with a multimeter is an iffy situation at best. This is because the multimeter will not tell you if one of the turns is shorted, causing Q to drastically suffer, it will really only tell you if the winding is open, or if it is shorted to something it should not be shorted to, such as the frame. This is especially true for larger windings, in larger transformers and motors, because their DC resistance is so close to zero that you might not be able to tell if they are shorted or normal. Using a multimeter is a good start, to make sure that basics are covered, and it might tell you if the winding is dead shorted, but you need to know for sure what the expected DC resistance is, and you need to know that you multimeter is very good in the low Ohms scale.
How is an multimeter connected to take a measure?
Multimetres are generaly used to measure the following quantities. Voltage: multimeter is connected in parallel with the Load; Current: multimeter is connected in series with Load; Resistance: the resistor must be taken out of the circuit first, then, the probes from the multimeter are connected across the resistor,
Can you calibrate voltmeter on multimeter or multimeter on voltmeter?
how which is right and which is wrong. You need a voltage standard with that you can calibrate both to the standard
Do you need to calibrate a multimeter?

Re-calibrate what, exactly?
Can anyone calibrate a multi meter?
Anyone who has the necessary know-how and the proper tools--specifically, reference sources for the various parameters the instrument measures--can calibrate a multimeter. It's actually pretty easy: on a multimeter that can be calibrated (a cheap one can't be), there are adjustment potentiometers in it for voltage, current, resistance, and the other parameters the instrument measures. You need a reference source for each parameter--a DC voltage reference would produce, say, 50 volts DC. You connect the meter to the reference and adjust the proper pot until the instrument reads 50 volts DC.
How do you calibrate your ds?
You need to about calibrate your ds about one time every three weeks. The reason you need to calibrate the screen is that the Nintendo has a touch screen, so it depends where you touch it. If you calibrate the screen very very closely you will get the exact touch on the screen. Once I didn't calibrate it and i missed a big chance of doing something on my Nintendo. GOOD LUCK!!!
Why are your spark plugs sparking from outside?
You need to calibrate the gap.
How do you test an abs sensor?
To test an abs sensor for a Lexus ES you will need to use a multimeter. The multimeter will determine if the abs sensor works or not.
Why do you need to calibrate?
Calibrating a microscope simplifies the process of obtaining quick and accurate measurements. It is important to calibrate the microscope for each object you plan to view with the lens.
Indicate how circuitresistance and voltage can be measured?
You will need a multimeter and instructions on how to use it.
How do you calibrate the electronic compass on Hyundai Santa Fe?
To calibrate compass you need to drive two full 360 degrees turns and this will calibrate your compass. If the calibration is not successfully completed, then you have to go to dealer to install a magnetic plate to help calibration
