9. Calibration Instructions
For stable and reliable results, the thermometer provides a user-
correction function.
9-1. Check the Device Calibration
Verify calibration as follows:
1.
Take the temperature of a person using a conventional
thermometer; example: you get 37 °C (98.6 °F).
2.
Take the temperature of the same person using the HotSpot
IR Non-Contact Thermometer keeping 5 to 15 cm (2” to
5.9”) distance between the thermometer and the person.
If you get 37 °C (98.6 °F), the HotSpot IR Non-Contact
Thermometer is properly set and ready for use.
If you get a lower or higher temperature, 38.1 °C (100.6 °F) for
example, you should re-calibrate the HotSpot IR Non-Contact
Thermometer.
9-2. Calibrate the Device
To calibrate the device:
1.
Press the

button again until you get F3.
3.

thermometer and HotSpot IR Non-Contact Thermometer
are the same.
