Depends on what meter you have; an autoranging one, which is the majority today, has no settings. It is just B, I, Ohms or Capacitance.
If you do have ranges, use the one that is higher than the max expected voltage, so say you expect to measure 200-350V, and your ranges are 5V, 50V, 100V, 500V and 1,000V. You can use the last two.
