certain optical instruments designed for use
at a distance (for example, telescopes and
binoculars) may pose an eye hazard.
• CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or
performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
• Do NOT direct the beam towards a person's
eyes.
• Avoid positioning the laser pointer such
that it may lead to unintentional eye
exposure to any potential passing
pedestrians/traffic.
• Do NOT direct the beam towards animals.
• Do NOT use in the vicinity of children.
• Do NOT direct the beam onto reflective
surfaces.
• Always switch off when not in use and do
not leave unattended. Remove the batteries

disassemble or repair.
4. INTRODUCTION
This infrared thermometer is used for
measuring the temperature of the object's
surface, which is applicable for various hot,
cold, hazardous or hard-to-reach objects
without contact safely and quickly. This unit
consists of Optics, Temperature Sensor Signal
amplifier, Laser pointer, Processing circuit and
LCD Display.
7.1 PACKAGING
Carefully remove the thermometer from the
packaging and examine it for any sign of
damage that may have happened during
shipping. Lay the contents out and check them
against the parts shown below. If any part is

according to local regulations.
1. When taking measurements, pay attention to the Distance to Spot Size. As the Distance '
from the target surface increases, the spot size 6 of the area measured by the unit becomes
larger. The Distance to Spot size of the unit is 12:1. This unit is equipped with a laser pointer, which
is used for aiming.
2. Field of view:
Make sure the target is larger than the unit's spot size. The smaller the target the closer measure
distance. When accuracy Is critical, make sure the target is at least twice as large as the spot size.

9.2 EMISSIVITY
Most organic materials and painted or oxidized surfaces have an emissivity of 0.95 (pre-set In
the unit). Inaccurate readings will result from measuring shiny or polished metal surfaces. To
compensate, cover the target surface with masking tape or flat black paint. Measure the tape or
painted surface when the tape or painted area reach the same temperature as the material
underneath.
9.3 OPERATING THE UNIT
• Pull the trigger to turn on the unit;
• Aim at the target surface and pull the trigger, the temperature will be shown on the LCD.
• This unit is equipped with a laser pointer, which is only used for aiming.
