Water has a high electrical resistance, no “beep”

After adding salt into the water, no “beep”, but the screen shows number on this mode, lower resistance than water, higher conductivity!

#2 Reading Voltage

Connect the black probe to the battery's ground or '-' and the red probe to power or '+'.

If I get it wrong, the displayed reading will be negative
