Instructions
INTRODUCTION
This non-contact infrared thermometer can be used to safely measure the surface temperatures of hot, hazardous, or hard-to-reach objects by simply pointing the laser at the target and reading the LED display. The display simultaneously shows the present reading and the maximum reading since the thermometer was last activated in either Centigrade or Fahrenheit scales. This non-contact thermometer not only provides safety for the user but is fast in operation and highly accurate.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
- Aim the thermometer at the target to be measured, then pull and hold the trigger. The LCD back light will illuminate and a red dot will appear indicating the position of the sensor. This is the point at which the reading is being taken the and the display indicates the surface temperature of this target.
- To stop the measurement just release the trigger, the last temperature reading will be held on the display and “ HOLD ” will appear as an indication.
- During the measurement, the maximum temperature reading taken since the thermometer was last activated will be displayed beside the “ MAX ” icon.
- When a reading is on “ HOLD ” it can be displayed in either the Centigrade or Fahrenheit scale. Press the “ C/F ” button to switch between the two scales.
- Pull the trigger again if you wish to begin a new measurement.
- The Distance: Spot is 8 : 1. Please make sure the target area is within the field of view.
LCD ERROR MESSAGES
The thermometer incorporates visual diagnostic messages as follows:
“Err” is displayed when the ambient temperature is lower than °C (32°F) or
higher than +40°C (104°F).
“Hi” or “Lo” is displayed when the temperature being measured is outside the
measurement range.
SUPPLIMENTARY INSTRUCTION
°C/°F Press the “ °C / °F ” button to switch between °C and
°F.
When you pull and hold the trigger, the LCD backlight turns on.
Class II Laser (European Standard). When you pull the trigger to make
measurement, the thermometer emits a laser beam.
BATTERIES
