B - 4 Operating manual - Food thermometer BP5F EN
The food thermometer BP5F detects the surface and
inside temperature of foods by using an infrared sensor
and a temperature probe. Beside the digital temperature
display, three LEDs show whether the detected tempe-
rature is within the HACCP range (Hazard Analysis and
Critical Control Points). According to the HACCP directi-
ve, complying with the temperature ranges below 4 °C
and above 60 °C is an important way of preventing the
development and reproduction of harmful microorganis-
ms. On the other hand, temperatures between 4 °C and
60 °C can promote the development of germs. To quickly
show whether or not the safe temperature range is com-
plied with, the food thermometer BP5F shows three
LEDs beside the digital temperature display which indi-
cate the corresponding temperature range.

Temperature measurement
1. Press any button to switch on the device.
2. Press the "MODE" button (6) to switch between
measurement with infrared, the temperature probe
and the timer function.
The symbols (11, 12) indicate which measurement
type is selected.
Infrared
• Vapours and smoke can influence the measurement.
•Ensure that the surface to be measured is free of
dust, dirt, ice or similar substances.
• To be able to gain exact measurement results on sur-
faces which reflect heavily, stick matt masking tape
to the surface or apply matt black paint with a very
high and known level of emissivity.
• Note the 20:1 ratio of the distance to the measuring
spot size. The larger the distance to the object, the
larger the measuring spot and hence, the less precise
the measured result.
3. Point the device at the object to be measured and
hold down the "MEAS" (3) button.
– The device turns on and carries out a measure-
ment. The "SCAN" symbol (19) appears in the dis-
play. The current measured value is shown.
4. Release the "MEAS" button (3).
– The device stops measuring. The "HOLD"
symbol (20) appears in the display. The last value
measured is shown.

3. Press the temperature probe's lock (4) and fold out
the temperature probe.
4. Insert the temperature probe into the object to be
measured by approx. 1 cm.
5. Press the "MEAS" button (3).
– The current measured value is shown.
Timer function
3. Press the "SET" button (2) to set the time.
– The "Timer function" (12) and "SET" (14) are

if you switch to another menu or the device turns
off because of non-use.
7. After the set time has passed, a beep is emitted for
30 seconds. Press any button to switch off the beep.
The device switches off after approx. 20 seconds without
being used.
