SAFETY INSTRUCTION

1. Never stare into the laser beam directly or expose eyes to the reflected laser light, otherwise, eyesight impairment or even blindness may occur. Especially the high-frequency laser, such as UV-light, is invisible by naked eyes and requires extra attention.
2. No laser over 40mW is allowed to input, the sensor may be damaged by a high-power laser.
3. To avoid inaccurate measurement, please keep the sensor illuminated surface clean and free from scratch and contamination.
4. Check the device and accessories for any damage or abnormality before usage. Do not operate the product if you find it damaged obviously, no display, or you suspect it is faulty.
5. Operating instructions must be followed during measurement.
6. Do not open the meter shell or change the internal circuit to avoid damage to the meter.
7. Users should change the battery in time when the icon blinks on the LCD. Remove the batteries during long-time storage to avoid battery leakage.
8. Do not use or store the meter in an environment of high temperature, high humidity, flammable, explosive or intense electromagnetic.
9. Clean the meter shell with a soft damp cloth and neutral detergent. Do not use abrasive or solvents, to protect the meter from corrosion.

OPERATION STEPS AND NOTICES

1. Power on the meter.
2. Aim the laser at the middle illuminated surface of the sensor and keep the laser angle with the illuminated surface to be 90°, at this point, the reading is the measured laser power.
3. According to the laser type, in case the measured laser output will be influenced by the reflected light of the illuminated surface, please twist the angle a little bit to avoid the direct reflection on the laser port.
4. In weak laser measurement (<1nW), in order to avoid the affection of the light interference such as ambient light, it should be operated in a dark room.
