* Before measuring any surface, make sure it is clean.
* If the surface of the object you want to measure is very reflective, apply adhesive tape or apply matte black
paint and before measuring, wait for it to adjust to the temperature of the covered object.
* The measurements should be taken as close as possible to the object. The thermometer can take
measurements at a greater distance (up to 12 meters), however, they can be affected by external agents (steam,
dust, smoke, dirt, etc.).
* Measurements made through transparent surfaces such as glass may not be accurate.
* The thermometer automatically compensates for ambient temperature deviations, however, it may take a few
minutes to adjust to wide temperature changes.
Measurement area
The measurement target must be larger than the infrared size of the equipment. As the distance (D) of the lens
increases, the size of the measurement area also becomes larger. Thus. the smaller the surface (S) to be
measured, the closer you should bring the thermometer.

* Before measuring any surface, make sure it is clean.
* If the surface of the object you want to measure is very reflective, apply adhesive tape or apply matte black
paint and before measuring, wait for it to adjust to the temperature of the covered object.
* The measurements should be taken as close as possible to the object. The thermometer can take
measurements at a greater distance (up to 12 meters), however, they can be affected by external agents (steam,
dust, smoke, dirt, etc.).
* Measurements made through transparent surfaces such as glass may not be accurate.
* The thermometer automatically compensates for ambient temperature deviations, however, it may take a few
minutes to adjust to wide temperature changes.
Measurement area
The measurement target must be larger than the infrared size of the equipment. As the distance (D) of the lens
increases, the size of the measurement area also becomes larger. Thus. the smaller the surface (S) to be
measured, the closer you should bring the thermometer.

• This device is not intended for use by persons (including children), whose physical, sensory or mental abilities
are different or reduced, or who lack experience or knowledge.
• Children should be supervised to ensure they do not use the device as a toy.
• To avoid damage and injury to the eyes, do not look directly at the laser. Do not point directly at people or
animals or at reflective surfaces.
• If laser radiation hits the eye, you should close your eyes and immediately move your head out of the beam.
• Do not try to use dark glasses as protection, as they do not protect against laser radiation.
• Do not use the appliance in an environment where there are liquid fuels, gases or powdered materials, as this
may cause sparks and fire.

* Before measuring any surface, make sure it is clean.
* If the surface of the object you want to measure is very reflective, apply adhesive tape or apply matte black
paint and before measuring, wait for it to adjust to the temperature of the covered object.
* The measurements should be taken as close as possible to the object. The thermometer can take
measurements at a greater distance (up to 12 meters), however, they can be affected by external agents (steam,
dust, smoke, dirt, etc.).
* Measurements made through transparent surfaces such as glass may not be accurate.
* The thermometer automatically compensates for ambient temperature deviations, however, it may take a few
minutes to adjust to wide temperature changes.
Measurement area
The measurement target must be larger than the infrared size of the equipment. As the distance (D) of the lens
increases, the size of the measurement area also becomes larger. Thus. the smaller the surface (S) to be
measured, the closer you should bring the thermometer.
