Note: Measurement considerations
Holding the meter by its handle, point the IR Sensor toward the object
whose temperature is to be measured. The meter automatically
compensates for temperature deviations from ambient temperature.
Keep in mind that it will take up to 30 minutes to adjust to wide
ambient temperatures are to be measured followed by high
temperature measurements, some time (several minutes) is required
after the low (and before the high) temperature measurements are
made.
This is a result of the cooling process, which must take place for the IR
sensor.
