Infrared Thermometer

Safety Information

•See emissivity information for actual temperatures. Reflective objects

result in lower than actual temperature measurements. These objects

pose a burn hazard.

•Do not look directly into the laser with optical tools (for example,

binoculars, telescopes, microscopes). Optical tools can focus the laser

and be dangerous to the eye.

•Do not look into the laser. Do not point laser directly at persons or

animals or indirectly off reflective surfaces.

•Replace the batteries when the low battery indicator shows to prevent

incorrect measurements.

•Do not use the Product around explosive gas, vapor, or in damp or wet

environments.

•Use the Product only as specified or hazardous laser radiation exposure

can occur.

•Carefully read all instructions.
