1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this infrared thermometer.
This infrared thermometer is a non-contact infrared
temperature measuring instrument. Features include a
4 digits backlit LCD, scan/hold function and auto power
off (6 second). To measure a temperature, point the unit
at the object, pull the measuring trigger and hold. Make
sure the target area is larger than the unit’s spot size.
2. Safety Information
Read the following safety information carefully before
attempting to operate or service the meter. Only
qualified personnel should perform repairs or servicing
not covered in this manual.
2-1 Cautions!

CE Certification.
This instrument conforms to the following standards:
EN61326: Electrical equipment for measurement, control
and laboratory use.
IEC61000-4-2: Electrostatic discharge immunity test.
IEC61000-4-3: Radiated, radio-frequency,
electromagnetic field immunity test.
IEC61000-4-8: Power frequency magnetic field immunity
test.
Tests were conducted using a frequency range of
80-1000MHz with the instrument in three orientations.
The average error for the three orientations is ±1.0ºF
(±0.5ºC) at 3V/m throughout the spectrum. However,
between 781-1000MHz at 3V/m, the instrument may
not meet its stated accuracy.
