tUrNiNg oN the thermometer
To turn on the thermometer, push the button on the top; the display test is performed. Then at an ambient tempe rature
of less than 32°C / 89.6°F, an «
l
» and a flashing «
°C/°F
» appear at the upper right of the display. The thermometer is
now ready to use.
FUNCtioN teSt
Proper functioning of the thermometer is tested automatically each time it is turned on. If a malfunction is detected
(measu rement inaccuracy), this is indicated by «
err
» on the display, and a measurement becomes impossible. In this
case, the thermometer must be replaced.
USiNg the thermometer
During a measurement, the current temperature is displayed continuously. The «
°C/°F
» symbol flashes during this
period of time. If the «
°C/°F
» is no longer flashing, this means that the measured increase in temperature is now less
than 0.1°C / 0.2°F in 16 seconds and that the thermometer is ready for reading.
To prolong the life of the battery, turn it off after use by press ing the operating button briefly. Otherwise the thermo‑
meter will automatically turn off after about 10 minutes.
Storage oF meaSUreD valUeS
If you hold the button down for more than 3 seconds when turning the thermometer on, the maximum temperature
stored automatically at the last measurement will be displayed. At the same time, a small «M» for memory will appear
at the right of the display. After 3 more seconds, this value will disappear and the thermometer will switch to the
normal measurement mode. Then the stored value is erased.
SWitChiNg °C / °F
Press the button to turn the thermometer ON. The last measurement will display as mentioned in “Storage of Measured
Values” above. Once the «
m
» disappears and before «
°C/°F
» start to flash, press the button again and you can toggle
between
°C
or
°F
.
