8. ROOM TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION
If the thermometer is handled at length or if there is a significant temperature difference
with respect to the room temperature, a countdown will appear on the display
indicating that you should wait until automatic temperature calibration has been
completed. Pressing the "face"
At this point you have 2 options:
1. Automatic Quick Calibration System (AQCS): without touching the thermometer,
wait until the countdown has run its course and automatic quick calibration is
completed. The countdown will continue updating as long as differences in temperature
are detected (for example, because the thermometer has been continuously handled).
At the end of the countdown, the thermometer can take sufficiently accurate readings.
When the thermometer is in stand-by mode, "AQCS" appears on the display indicating
that automatic quick calibration has been performed.
2. Manual Quick Calibration System (MQCS): the alternative is to promptly correct
the thermometer temperature, adapting it to the real temperature of the room where
the reading has to be taken. Proceed as follows:
• open the cap;
• press simultaneously and release the "face"
symbol CAL will appear, and the display will light up in blue;
• within 10 seconds focus the thermometer on an internal wall (not the inside of an
external wall) or wardrobe with uniform temperature and at a point approximately
80/150 cm (30 to 60 inches) from the floor. Press the "home"

• once the right distance is reached (temperature value between the arches, fig. 6),
release the button: the lights flash slowly and the display shows the room temperature.
To ensure a reliable temperature reading, do not focus the thermometer on an outside
wall, window, source of heating or cooling (radiator, air conditioner, lamp, computer,
surface in contact with the human body, etc.).
• The thermometer is now ready to take a reading and will keep the MQCS for 30
minutes. "MQCS" appears on the display indicating that manual quick calibration has
been performed.
Manual quick calibration (MQCS) can also be performed without the countdown if, for
example, you are moving between rooms with different temperatures.
This system, too, enables the thermometer to take sufficiently accurate readings.
