Plug the guitar into the tuner.
Mute all other strings (which u are not currently tuning) to ensure they are not vibrating as you pluck the other string.
Strike the string (that ur tuning) with a pick, make sure u hit it cleanly and controlled, to ensure the tone does not distort

Ya plug it into guitar and make sure it is set to guitar first.
Then make sure the volume is up on your guitar and pluck the E6.
Now if it flashes real quick it means it is either to low to read or the pitch is to high, if you can't tune by ear yet go to youtube and type in standard guitar tuning and tune it to the pitch thats on the video and then plug in your tuner to fine tune.
I hope this works for you.
BTW if all else fails, new batteries FTW!
