4.3 Operating Test
For a quick verification that the thermometer is functioning correctly, point it at
water containing ice cubes, since this provides a simple reference for 32°F (0°C).
4.4 Operating Procedure
WARNING: Never point the LASER target beam at someone's eyes!
1. Activate the laser by briefly depressing the trigger.
2. Configure the instrument with the help of the LASER and BACKLIGHTING
buttons.
3. Select a measurement unit.
4. Point the thermometer at the object whose temperature you wish to measure,
with or without using the LASER target.
5. Press the trigger to measure the temperature. If you hold the trigger in
this position, the thermometer will continuously measure variations in
temperature.
6. Release the trigger. The displayed value is the last value measured.
NOTE: The instrument automatically shuts down after a few seconds (10 seconds
approx), storing the last configuration in its memory.
