Cleaning and storage
The IR sensor (1) is the most delicate part of the thermometer and should be
kept clean at all times.
To do this, only use a soft cloth or cotton bud. Do not use excessive
pressure on the sensor.
Wipe the other parts of the thermometer regularly with a dry cloth. Do not use
abrasive solutions or solvents.
Do not submerge the thermometer in water or any other liquid.
There are no user-serviceable parts.
Contact your dealer for spare parts if necessary.
The device must be stored in a place with temperature conditions between 10°C
and +60°C (+14°F and +140°F) and relative humidity lower than 80%.
10. Battery
To replace the battery, wait until the device powers off
automatically (after ± 7 seconds). When the lock mode is
on, switch it off first by pulling the measurement trigger
(6) once.
Open the battery cover (7). The battery cover has a
hinge at the bottom of the device. Hold the battery cover
at the top (next to the measurement trigger (6)) and
gently pull away from the device.
Remove/insert the new 9V battery. Make sure the
polarity is as indicated in the casing.
Push the cover back towards the device until it snaps
into place.
