manual and respect the detailed safety precautions.
The meter is a temperature and humidity measuring instrument, used to measure
the humidity and temperature in offices, storeroom’s, buildings, greenhouses and
places where a controlled environment is essential.
1.1. Precautionary safety measures
To get the best service from this meter, please read this manual carefully.
1.2. During use
• DO NOT touch the humidity sensor.
• DO NOT expose the sensor to direct light, this causes a false reading.
• NEVER store the product together with solvents, acids or other aggressive
substances.
1.3. Maintaining the product
• DO NOT use in high temperature environments.
• When not using the instrument for a long time, please remove the batteries
and avoid storing in high temperature and high humidity.

4. Operation Instruction
**NNOOTTEE::In order to ensure the accuracy of the measurement readings, all the
interference sources which may affect the measurement results about
temperature and humidity (such as the hand) must be clear from the sensor.
4.1. ON/OFF
1. First remove the meters protective sensor cover.
2. Press the
OONN//OOFFFFkey to turn the power ‘ON’.
3. The LCD will display the current value of humidity and temperature.
Default setting is %RH/°C (humidity/temperature).
4. To turn the meter ‘off ’ press the OONN//OOFFFFkey for 2 seconds.
NNoottee::The power to the meter will switch off automatically after 20 minutes but be
aware that leaving the meter in for any length of time will drain the battery.
4.2. UNIT
1. When the meter is switched ‘on’ p ress the UUNNIITTkey to change through the
4 different humidity/temperature measurement options.
2. The available setting are as follows:
%RH/°C, td°C/°C , %RH/°F, td°C/°F
(%RH = Relative humidity / td°C = Dew-point temperature)
4.3. MODE
1. When the meter is switched ‘on’ and the required ‘UNIT’ (%RH/°C, td°C/°C ,
%RH/°F, td°C/°) has been selected press the MMOODDEEkey to display the
Maximum or Minimum readings, this is acknowledged with the symbol MAX
or MIN on the LCD display.
2. To cancel the Maximum or Minimum readings press the MMOODDEEkey until the
symbols no longer appear on the LCD Screen.
4.4. HOLD/LIGHT
HOLD
