Do not leave the thermometer on or near objects of high temperature exceeding 158°F.
Be certain there is no condensation on the lens prior to taking measurements. Allow 10
minutes for condensation to dissipate as needed.
Shiny surfaces result in lower than actual temperature measurements.
For the most accurate temperature measurements, aim the infrared thermometer perpen-
dicular to the target.
The IR thermometer cannot measure through transparent surfaces such as glass and plastic.
It will measure the surface temperature instead.
Steam, dust, smoke and/or vapours can prevent accurate measurement by obstructing the
unit’s optics. For better accuracy, keep the sensor perfectly clean.
Refer to the spot size information on the instrument (and in the manual) for the target spot
size being measured at a given distance.
