OPERATION MANUAL
1. SAFETY RULES
• To ensure the device is used safely, follow the operation manual's safety and
operating instructions. If the device is not used as described in this operation manual,
the safety features of this device might be impaired.
• Do not look directly into the laser beam when the device is in use–permanent eye

• Keep out of reach of children.
2. INTERNATIONAL SYMBOLS
5. OPERATION
WARNING
1) The measurement range is for thermometers only. Users should choose proper probe
types for different kinds of applications. Please ensure the target to be measured will
not exceed the temperature range of the probe to avoid permanent damage to the
thermocouple probe.
2) Caution: To avoid electric shock and thermometer damage, do not measure the live
circuit with the thermocouple probe voltage exceeding 24V AC RMS or 60V DC.
3) EMC/RFI: Readings may be affected if the unit is operated within radiofrequency
electromagnetic field strength of approximately 3 volts per meter, but the instrument's
performance will not be permanently affected.

Specify the approximate measurement
area for better targeting.
** The Thermometer will automatically shut off if left idle for more than 60sec. unless in PRB
mode. (In PRB mode, it will shut off if left idle for more than 12 minutes.)
5.2 Other Function Selection
Display
Function
Aim the Thermometer at the measured target with Lens (5)
and press Meas. key (7) to display the surface temperature.
During the measurement, the MAX reading will be displayed
beside the
icon.
The Distance:Spot is 12:1. Please make sure the target area is
within the field of view.
5.3 Add Value
In E, MAX, MIN, DIF,
AVG mode:
Press Lock key (4) for LOCK mode ON/OFF. The lock mode
is particularly useful for continuously monitoring temperatures
for up to 60 minutes.
Press °C/ °F key (3) for °C or °F transferred.
In all modes: First,
hold on to the Meas.
key (7)
and press Lock key (4) for backlight function ON/OFF.
and press °C/ °F key (3) for Laser Pointer function ON/OFF.
Memory Recall the last reading memory by pressing Mode key (2)
while powering off.
5.4 LCD Error Messages
The Thermometer incorporates visual diagnostic messages as follows:
Display
Function
Here will show the emissivity data. (The default emissivity is
0.95.)
Press Mode key (2), then press Lock key (4) or °C/ °F key (3)
to set the emissivity, then press Mode key (2) to confirm it. The
emissivity can be changed from 0.10 to 1.00.
Press Mode key (2) for the Maximum (MAX), Minimum (MIN),
Different between MAX and MIN (DIF) and Average (AVG)
modes. During the measurement, the special modes reading
will be displayed beside the mode icon.
Press Lock key (4) or °C/ °F key (3) to change the High Alarm
(HAL) or Lo Alarm (LAL), then press Meas. key (7) to confirm it.
When the reading is outside the High Alarm (HAL) or Lo Alarm
(LAL) limit, you will hear a beep sound.
Connect the thermocouple with Thermocouple socket (9) and
put the probe in/on the target, the thermometer will display the
temperature automatically without pressing any button. To see
the minimum or maximum data during the probe measurement,
please hold down Lock key (4) or °C/ °F key (3).
After measure high temp, the probe may remain HOT for a
while.

Note: Under the electromagnetic field of 3V/m from 200 to 600 MHz, the maximum error is
10°C (18°F).
Not recommend using external K-type thermocouple for long time measurement
above 1000°C (1832°F).
‘Er2’ is displayed when the thermometer is exposed to rapid
changes in the ambient temperature. ‘Er3’ is displayed when
the ambient temperature exceeds 0°C (32°F) or +50°C
(122°F). The thermometer should be allowed plenty of time
(minimum 30 minutes) to stabilize to the working/room
temperature.
Error 5~9, for all other error messages it is necessary to
reset the thermometer. To reset it, turn the instrument off,
remove the battery and wait for a minimum of one minute,
reinsert the battery and turn on. If the error message
remains please contact the Service Department for further
assistance.
‘Hi’ or ’Lo’ is displayed when the temperature being
measured is outside of the measurement range.

6. MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
BEFORE ATTEMPTING BATTERY REMOVAL OR REPLACEMENT, DISCONNECT
EXTERNAL PROBES FROM AN ARTICLE UNDER TEST AND TURN THE
THERMOMETER OFF.
6.1 Fitting and replacing the battery
The Thermometer incorporates visual low battery indication as follows:
FOR TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE,
PLEASE CONTACT:
‘Battery OK’: measurements are possible
‘Battery Low’: battery needs to be replaced. Measurements are still
possible
‘Battery Exhausted’: measurements are not possible
1. When the ‘Low Battery’ icon indicates the battery is low, the battery should be replaced
immediately with AAA, 1.5V batteries. Please note: It is essential to turn the instrument off
before replacing the battery; otherwise, the Thermometer may malfunction.
2. Dispose of used battery promptly and keep away from children.
3. If the device is not used for a long time, turn the power off, remove and store the batteries in
a cool, dry place.

6.2 Storage & Cleaning
The Thermometer should be stored at room temperature between -20 to +65°C (-4 to +149°F)
and 85% of relative humidity with no condensation or less. The sensor lens is the most delicate
part of the Thermometer. The lens should be kept clean at all times. Take care when cleaning the
lens using only a soft cloth or cotton swab with distilled water or medical alcohol, allowing the
lens to entirely dry before using the Thermometer. Do not submerge any part of the Thermometer.
