Operating Instructions
Turning the meter on
Press the button to turn the thermometer ON or OFF.
Connecting the temperature probe
For measurement, plug the temperature probe into the input connectors.
Selecting the Temperature Scale
When the meter is first turned on, the default setting is set to the Celsius
(°C) scale. It can be changed to Fahrenheit (°F) by pressing “°C/°F”button and
vice versa back to Celsius.
Data-Hold Operation
To hold the present reading and keep it on the display, press the “HOLD”
button. When the hold data is no longer needed, release the data-hold
operation by pressing “HOLD” button again.
When the meter is under Data Hold operation, the “ REL”, AVG MAX MIN and
“°C/°F” buttons are disabled.
Back Light Operation
Press the “Back Light” button to turn the back light on, press it once again
to turn it off. The meter will turn the back light off automatically if the
“Back Light” button is not pressed after 10 seconds.
Relative Operation
When the “ REL” button is pressed, the meter will memorize the present reading
and the difference between the new reading and the memorized reading and the
result will be shown on the display. Press the “ REL” button again to exit the
relative operation.
MAX/MIN/AVG Operation
When the button is pressed, the meter will enter the MAX/MIN/AVG mode. Under
this mode the maximum value, minimum value and average value will appear
simultaneously. The average value is calculated using the last 8 readings from
the memory, it will update with every new reading.
When the MAX symbol is displayed, the Maximum value is shown on the display.
Press again and the NIN symbol is on the display and also the minimum reading.
Press again and the AVG symbol is on the display as well as the average
reading.
Press again and the MAX, MIN and AVG will blink together. This means that all
these readings are updated in the memory and the reading is the current
temperature.
Press to circulate the display mode among these options.
When the meter is under operation, the “ REL” and “°C/°F” functions are
disabled.
To exit the MAX/MIN mode, press and hold AVG MAX MIN for two seconds.
Auto Power Off
By default, the meter is in auto power-off mode. The meter will power itself
off after 30 minutes without operation.
To disable the auto power off, press and hold the “HOLD” button and turn the
meter on. There will be two successive beeps to indicate that the auto power
off has been disabled.
Low Battery
This meter indicates the battery power level directly on the display. Use this
reference guide to establish battery power level.
Temperature Measurement
Correct Measurement Method
The temperature sensor is located at the end of the metal sheath of the sheath
type temperature probe. To accurately test internal temperatures, insert the
probe to a distance of at least 15 times the diameter of the sheath directly
into the item you want to measure.
Connector Configuration
Battery Replacement
- Remove all of the back cover screws to be able to remove the cover.
- Verify the polarity of the batteries and install the new LR03 (AAA size) alkaline batteries into the instrument.
- Replace cover properly onto the meter and tighten screws.
Do no use cleaning agents that contain carbon or benzenes, alcohol or anything similar to clean the meter as thesesubstances will damage the surface of the meter. Do not use tools with sharp edges, screwdrivers, metal brushes or anything similar to clean the meter.
