A. Operating steps:
①Hold the meter by its handle grip and point it toward the surface to be measured.
②Pull and hold the Trigger to turn the meter on, the "SCAN" icon will appear and begin testing.
③The surface temperature being tested will be displayed on the LCD screen.
④Release the trigger, the "HOLD" icon will appear, and the reading will be hold for several seconds.
⑤The meter will automatically shut off after 20 seconds.
Measurement Note:
If the meter used in an ambient temperature with wide temperature change, allow it at least 30 minutes to adjust to it.
The laser is designed for aiming only; it can be shut off while operating in short distance to save the battery.

compartment cover.
10. Notes
(1) Work Principle
●The infrared thermometer is designed for measuring surface temperature of an object.
●The optical sensor can emit, reflect and transmit energy, which is collected and focused on a detector, then translate it
into the temperature reading by electronics and displayed on the LCD screen.
●The laser is used for aiming the target object only.
(2) Field of View
●The object under test should be larger than the spot size calculated by the field of view diagram.
●The smaller the target object is, the closer the meter should be to it for accurate measuring.
●When accuracy is critical, make sure the target is at least twice as large as the spot size.
(3) Distance & Spot Size
●As distance (D) from the object increases, the spot size (S) of the area measured by the unit becomes larger.
(4) Locating a hot spot
●To find a hot spot, first aim the thermometer to the outside of target area, then scan across in an up and down motion
until the hot spot is located.
(5) Notice
●Not recommend for measuring shiny or polished metal surfaces like stainless steel, aluminum, etc.
●Do not make measurement through transparent surface such as glass.
●If the surface of the object under test is covered with frost, oil, grime, etc., clean before taking measurement.
(6) Maintenance
●Do not use volatile liquids to clean the unit, swipe it with dry soft cloth.
●Do not disassemble the unit, repair it by qualified personnel
●Do not immerse it in water.
●Do not store it in high temperature or humidity.
