Yeah, trying to measure a current of less than 0.1 Amps with a multimeter using the 10 Amp scale will not give an accurate result. I would use the tester on its miliamp scale but I would probably do a quick calibration check using a known value resistor with the battery to make sure the tester is accurate and functioning correctly. For example a 1 kiloohm resistor in series with your car battery should give you about 12-13 miliamps, this would be a good value to test the meter accuracy.
