temperature measurement key all the while until you find the warmest spot.
After releasing the temperature measurement key the temperature detected will be shown in the
display for approximately 60 seconds. During this time, "HOLD" will be shown. The device will
switch itself off to save batteries after approximately 60 seconds.

make accurate readings. To activate the laser, press the temperature measurement key and the
"Down" key until the laser is turned on. The LCD then shows the laser symbol. To turn the laser
off again, press the temperature measurement key and the "Down" key again until the laser
