WARRANTY
The manufacturer warrants this instrument to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use
and service for the period of two years from date of purchase. This warranty extends only to the original purchaser.
This warranty shall not apply to fuses, batteries, or any product which has been subject to misuse, neglect, accident,
or abnormal conditions of operation.
In the event of failure of a product covered by this warranty, the manufacturer will repair the instrument when it
is returned by the purchaser, freight prepaid, to an authorized Service Facility within the applicable warranty
period, provided manufacturer’s examination discloses to its satisfaction that the product was defective. The
manufacturer may, at its option, replace the product in lieu of repair. With regard to any covered product returned
within the applicable warranty period, repairs or replacement will be made without charge and with return freight
paid by the manufacturer, unless the failure was caused by misuse, neglect, accident, or abnormal conditions of
operation or storage, in which case repairs will be billed at a reasonable cost. In such a case, an estimate will be
submitted before work is started, if requested.
THE FOREGOING WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS, OR
ADEQUACY FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE. THE MANUFACTURER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE
FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT,
OR OTHERWISE.
SOFTWARE WARRANTY
The manufacturer does not warrant that the software described herein will function properly in every hardware
and software environment. This software may not work in combination with modified or emulated versions of
Windows operating environments, memory-resident software, or on computers with inadequate memory. The
manufacturer warrants that the program disk is free from defects in material and workmanship, assuming normal
use, for a period of one year. Except for this warranty, the manufacturer makes no warranty or representation,
either expressed or implied, with respect to this software or documentation, including its quality, performance,
merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose. As a result, this software and documentation are licensed “as
is,” and the licensee (i.e., the User) assumes the entire risk as to its quality and performance. The liability of the

Safety Instructions
XR Rev. B2 Feb 2017 7
1Safety Instructions
This document contains important information, which should be kept at all times with the instrument
during its operational life. Other users of this instrument should be given these instructions with the
instrument. Eventual updates to this information must be added to the original document. The
instrument can only be operated by trained personnel in accordance with these instructions and local
safety regulations.
Acceptable Operation
This instrument is intended only for the measurement of temperature. The instrument is appropriate
for continuous use. The instrument operates reliably in demanding conditions, such as in high
environmental temperatures, as long as the documented technical specifications for all instrument
components are adhered to. Compliance with the operating instructions is necessary to ensure the
expected results.
Unacceptable Operation
The instrument should not be used for medical diagnosis.
Replacement Parts and Accessories
Use only original parts and accessories approved by the manufacturer. The use of other products can
compromise the operation safety and functionality of the instrument.
Instrument Disposal
Disposal of old instruments should be handled according to professional and
environmental regulations as electronic waste.
Operating Instructions
The following symbols are used to highlight essential safety information in the operation instructions:
Helpful information regarding the optimal use of the instrument.
Warnings concerning operation to avoid instrument damage and personal injury.
The instrument is equipped with a Class 2 laser. Class 2 lasers shine only within the visible
spectrum at an intensity of 1 mW. Looking directly into the laser beam can produce a
slight, temporary blinding effect, but does not result in physical injury or damage to the
eyes, even when the beam is magnified by optical aids. At any rate, closing the eye lids is
encouraged when eye contact is made with the laser beam. Pay attention to possible
reflections of the laser beam. The laser functions only to locate and mark surface
measurement targets. Do not aim the laser at people or animals.
Incorrect use of 110 / 230 V electrical systems can result in electrical hazards and personal
injury. All instrument parts supplied with electricity must be covered to prevent physical
contact and other hazards at all times.
