Temperature measurement
1. Press any button to switch on the device.

type is selected.
Infrared
• Vapours and smoke can influence the measurement.
• Ensure that the surface to be measured is free of
dust, dirt, ice or similar substances.
• To be able to gain exact measurement results on sur-
faces which reflect heavily, stick matt masking tape
to the surface or apply matt black paint with a very
high and known level of emissivity.
• Note the 20:1
ratio of the distance to the measuring
spot size. The larger the distance to the object, the
larger the measuring spot and hence, the less precise
the measured result.
3. Point the device at the object to be measured and
hold down the "MEAS" (3) button.
– The device turns on and carries out a measure-
ment. The "SCAN" symbol (19) appears in the dis-
play. The current measured value is shown.
4. Release the "MEAS" button (3).
– The device stops measuring. The "HOLD"
symbol (20) appears in the display. The last value
measured is shown.
