Non-contact voltage detector not working on Multi Meter

Hi,

I bought a Multimeter from JayCar Electronics today Digitech QM1529 DVM. It works fine but one thing doesn’t work, the non-contact voltage detector.

When I try to use it with the DVM it comes up with - 951 when I’m not even holding it up to something!
