General Instructions on Safe Battery Use
1. The battery should be stored at an ambient temperature of -20 °C to 20 °C, because the battery has a small amount of self-discharge
during storage. In order to avoid any impact on battery capacity due to possible over-discharge of the battery during storage, the battery
should be fully charged when being put into storage and then be charged at regular intervals. The following intervals should be adopted:
When the ambient temperature ranges from -20 °C to 20 °C, the battery should be charged once every 6 months;
When the ambient temperature ranges from 20℃ to 45℃, the battery should be charged once every 3 months;
When the ambient temperature ranges from 45℃ to 60℃, the battery should be charged once every 1 months;
The battery must be charged to greater than 50% of its capacity for every time of charging.
2. The ambient temperature during charging should range from 0 °C to 40 °C. When the ambient temperature is 0 °C, charging may
cause battery capacity loss. When the ambient temperature is greater than 40 °C, charging may cause the battery temperature to get too
high and thus causes damage.
3. Cautions for Battery Use:
• Do not disassemble, squeeze or poke the battery;
• Do not cause short circuit of the external contact of the battery;
• Do not place the battery in fire or water;
• Do not place the battery within the reach of children;
• Dispose of any used battery in accordance with local government regulations.
4.4 Turning on and Turning off the Thermal Infrared Imager
Long press on the “Power” button for more than 3 seconds to turn on/turn off the thermal Infrared Imager.

4.5 Selection among Color Mark Modes
The thermal infrared imager has six different color mark modes. Short press on the “Power” button to switch among color mark modes.
4.5.1 The Iron Red Mode
The iron red mode is the default mode of
the thermal infrared imager. This is a
versatile model for initial firefighting,
including life-saving work, fire control and
electrical equipment overhaul.
4.5.2 The Black/White Firefighting Mode
The black/white firefighting mode is a
standardized firefighting mode based on
the basic mode. This is a versatile model
for initial firefighting, including life-saving
work and fire control. This mode is
designed for fire services that don’t need
the thermal tinting function. The black hot
mode and the white hot mode are
available.
4.5.3 The Fire Protection Mode
The fire protection mode is optimized for
searching for hot spots during a thorough
inspection after a fire is extinguished.
Such inspection usually aims to ensure
that there is no residual fire risk. This
mode can also be used for finding thermal
patterns (such as signs of people in the
car seats after an accident), so as to
ensure that everyone can be found. This
mode can also be used to search for
people in water and in open spaces.

4.5.4 The Firefighting Mode
The firefighting mode is similar to the
basic mode; however, the thermal tinting
mode is characterized by a higher starting
temperature. This mode is suitable for fire
scenes with relatively high background
temperatures, especially for a fire scene
characterized by a large number of open
flames and a high-temperature
background.
4.5.5 The Search & Rescue Mode
The search & rescue mode is optimized
for search and rescue of people on the
ground, in buildings or on traffic accident
scenes, which can maintain a high
contrast of infrared images.
4.6 Direct Temperature Measurement
The thermal infrared imager allows the
operator to view the temperature at the
central point of the screen and the lowest
temperature and the highest temperature
on the screen. The reading of the central
point is displayed in the upper left corner
of the screen. The upper limit of the color
mark is the highest temperature on the
screen, and the lower limit of the color
mark is the lowest temperature on the
screen. The system is designed to allow
the operator to detect possible hazards
(such as high-temperature gas bottle or
gas canister) or thermal signals from
people or objects and conduct
temperature comparison.
The central point - The target temperature corresponding to the central point of the screen can be displayed.
The lowest temperature point - The lowest temperature point on the screen can be displayed at the lower limit of the color mark.
The local temperature point - The highest temperature point on the screen can be displayed at the upper limit of the color mark.

4.7 The Zooming Function
Short press on the “Zoom” button to zoom in or zoom out. The zooming factor X2/X4 will appear at the status display bar in the upper
right corner of the screen.
4.8 Laser Ranging
Short press on the “Trigger” button to trigger the laser ranging function. The distance value will be displayed in the upper left corner
of the screen.
! Cautions:
1. The object to be measured is perpendicular to the laser preferably; the inclination (β) of the object to be measured can be up to
75°;
2. The object to be measured has a color with a higher reflectance of light colors (white) preferably; the higher the reflectance, the
farther the distance that can be measured by the range finder. The reflection effect of black objects is the poorest and the
measurement distance is thus the shortest;
3. The darker the working environment, the better the effect (the best effect can be realized at night). Strong light affects the distance
of the device and has no impact on parameters of the device, such as accuracy and stability;
4. The object to be measured should be as far as possible from surfaces of black objects, such as charcoal, tyre, and transparent
objects (colorless liquid or glass).
4.9 Compass
The compass can display N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W or NW in accordance with the direction indicated by the thermal infrared imager, with
the pointer always pointing at north (N), which allows the operator to find direction.
Warnings:
The accuracy of the magnetic compass depends on proper calibration and isolation from external magnetic interference. Possible causes
of magnetic interference include, but are not limited to, soft iron structure and electronic device. The compass can only be used as an
auxiliary tool and should not be used as the primary means of navigation.

4.10 The WiFi Function
Long press on the “Trigger” button to trigger the WiFi function, and the WiFi symbol can be displayed on the screen. The operator may
access the thermal infrared imager via a wireless device such as mobile app to view the images displayed on the screen.
4.11 Saving Images
Short press on the “Shooting” button to save a single frame image. After successful saving, “Image Saved Successfully” is displayed on
the screen. Images are stored in the thermal infrared imager in the format of “.jpg”.
4.12 Video Shooting
Long press on the “Shoot” button to start shooting. A flashing circle in the upper right corner of the screen indicates that the thermal
infrared imager is shooting a video clip. Short press on the “Shoot” button to stop shooting. Images are stored in the thermal infrared
imager in the format of “.avi”.
4.13 Exporting Images
You may connect the thermal infrared imager in the power-on state to a computer with a USB cable via the charging dock. After successful
connection, you can export the images stored in the thermal infrared imager to your computer.
