Beware of laser marker! 

 

Do not look into the laser marker or point it at anybody's eyes. Doing so may damage your eyes. 
Keep the unit out of reach of children. 
 

  If you have any questions, contact the dealer from which the unit was purchased, or our service

      Notes on Use 

 

Be sure to observe the following precautions in order to use this unit correctly. 
 

  Be careful of the following when the laser marker is active. 

. Do not stare into the laser marker. 
. Do not point the laser marker at anybody. 
. Keep the unit out of reach of children. 

  Do not use this unit as a clinical thermometer. 

  This is a non-contact thermometer. Do not let the unit touch the object to be measured. If the 

unit touches a hot object, it may result in measurement errors or failure. 

  Never disassemble or modify this unit. Doing so may result in failure. 

  Do not drop this unit or apply vibration/impact to it. This unit is a precision instrument. 

  Do not use this unit in a place exposed to direct sunlight or near heating equipment.   

  Doing so may result in measurement errors or deformation/discoloring of the casing. 

  This thermometer is designed for use in the ambient temperature range of 0 to 50°C at 80% RH 

or less. Using the unit outside the specified range will result in failure. 

  Do not use this unit in a dusty environment. The accuracy of measurement is affected by dust or 

dirt on the lens. Always wipe off dust and dirt after each use. For details, refer to "Maintenance". 

  Do not touch the measurement window with a sharp or hard object. Doing so may damage the 

lens, causing loss of measurement accuracy.   

  Do not use this unit in an environment where electrical noise is generated. Doing so may result 

in unstable display or larger errors. Also, do not bring the unit close to a charged object.
