DC CIRCUITS LAB--setting up the circuit

What do we need to know in order not to blow the fuse? Anything else other than these?
And please correct me if I'm wrong.

1.) Red goes to red (positive) and black goes to black (negative)
2.) Ampmeter in series(part of circuit), voltmeter in paralel (just touch whats being measured)
3.) Red goes to white when measuring the current. When do we use the yellow?
4.) Turn the knob to 200mA. What number do we use when measuring V and R?


Thanks
