CARE AND CLEANING
Use an alcohol swab or cotton swab moistened

has completely dried out, you can take a new
measurement.
Ensure that no liquid enters the interior of
the thermometer. Never use abrasive cleaning
agents, thinners or benzene for cleaning and
never immerse the instrument in water or other
cleaning liquids. Take care not to scratch the
surface of the LCD screen.
