icon is displayed along with the
primary measurement (surface
temperature) and secondary
measurement (maximum, minimum,
average or differential temperature)
readings.
3. Release the trigger. HOLD is displayed
until the screen shuts off in about ten
seconds.
NOTE: A quick change in temperature (>10°F)
affects the meter’s readings. Allow the meter to
reach ambient temperature before use (5 to 30
minutes, depending on temperature change).
