It has been my experience that cap testers designed to check electrolytic caps won't give you results on anything non-electrolytic. Based on the range settings you have, it is designed for electrolytics. On non-electrolytics, about the only thing you would need to check usually would be the capacitance value itself, or DCR, and you use the ohmmeter for that.
The DMM I have that has a built-in cap checker will give you capacitance values on anything from the low picofarad range up to 47uf, and it doesn't care what type it is as long as you have the probes the correct polarity on a small electrolytic.
