Before You Start
First time users should reference “Battery
Insertion Replacement” before using the unit,
page 19.
Noncontact (Infrared) Mode
Pressing and holding the ON button starts
the food safety thermometer in noncontact
(infrared) measurement mode. The measure-
ment will continue as long as the ON button is
depressed, indicated by the blinking “SCAN”.
When the button is released, “HOLD” appears
on the display and the last measurement
remains visible for 7 seconds before the
display goes blank.
The unit will display the temperature of an area
highlighted by the target illuminator. The maxi-
mum reading is indicated in the lower portion
of the display.

.
Note:
The infrared temperature measurements
are used for screening and measuring surface
temperatures only. Critical internal temperatures
must be verified by using the probe.
Mode Selection
The MODE button has two functions. Pressing
the MODE button after the display has gone
blank will recall the last display. Pressing the
MODE button with an active display cycles
through the three different operating modes:
Noncontact, Probe, and Countdown Timer.

Thank you for purchasing this food safety thermometer. We are confident that
you will be pleased with the quality and performance of this product. Please
take a few moments to familiarize yourself with the operation,
features, and benefits of this fine product. This food safety thermometer
combines two precision thermometers in one unit: a specially calibrated
noncontact infrared thermometer (IRT) and a resistance thermal device (RTD)
penetration probe. The noncontact mode can be used for quick scans of a sur-
face temperature, while the probe mode is used to accurately measure internal
temperatures.
