SAFETY INFORMATION
Warning!
A warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazards to the user. To
avoid electrical shock or personal injury, follow these guidelines:
-
Do not point laser directly at eye or indirectly off reflective surfaces.
- Before using the Thermometer inspect the case. Do not use the Thermometer
if it appears damaged. Look for cracks or missing plastic.
- Replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator
appears.
- Do not use the Thermometer if it operates abnormally. Protection may be
impaired.
When in doubt, have the Thermometer serviced.
- Do not operate the Thermometer around explosive gas, vapor, or dust.
To avoid a burn hazard, remember that highly reflective objects will often
result in lower than actual temperature measurements.
- Do not use in a manner not specified by this manual or the protection
supplied by the equipment may be impaired.
Caution
To avoid damaging the thermometer or the equipment under test protect them
from the following:
- EMF (electro-magnetic fields) from arc welders, induction heaters, etc.
- Static electricity.
- Thermal shock (caused by large or abrupt ambient temperature changes – all
30 minutes from the Thermometer to stabilize before use).
- Do not leave the Thermometer on or near objects of high temperature.
Table 1 and Figure 1 show various symbols and safety markings that are on the Thermometer
