6. Operation
• Hold the thermometer by the grip [9] and point the IR sensor [1] towards the surface of which the
temperature needs to be measured.
• Pull and hold the measurement trigger [8]. The LCD display [3] shows the current temperature
[K].
• During measurement, the word 'SCAN' [A] is visible in the LED display. When the measurement
stops (trigger [8] released), the word 'HOLD' [B] is shown. The last measured value will remain on
the display until the measurement trigger [8] is pulled again, or when the thermometer powers-off
automatically (after ± 7 seconds).
• Depending on the mode, the bottom of the screen shows the MAX, MIN, DIF, AVH, HAL, LAL Tk or
memory values. Use the mode button [6] to scroll through the modes of the device. The mode [J]
and corresponding value [H] are shown on the display.

• To set EMS, HAL or LAL, use the up [5] or down [4] button to adjust the value and press the mode
button [6] again to save the value and go to the next item. To cancel mode selection, pull the
measurement trigger [8]. Pushing the mode button [6] after setting the lower alarm limit will start
the set-up cycle again.
• Note that MAX, MIN, DIF and AVG only apply to the current measuring session (time between pulling
the trigger [8] and releasing it). Their value is reset when a new measurement starts or the
thermometer switches off.
• To switch between measurements in °C and °F, open the battery cover [10]. The battery cover has
a hinge at the bottom of the device. Hold the battery cover at the top (next to the measurement
trigger [8]) and gently pull away from the device.
