You will use the amp setting on the multimeter (you may have to relocate one of the lead from the multimeter to another terminal location depending on your multi-meter). Remove the negative cable from the battery. Connect one lead from the multimeter to the cable that you remove and the other lead to the battery terminal. DO NOT try and start the engine or turn on any lights. The meter will tell you how much of an amp draw is occurring.
