A Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazards to the user. To avoid electrical shock or personal injury, follow these guidelines:

•Before using the thermometer inspect the case. Do not use the thermometer if it appears damaged. Look for cracks or missing plastic. Pay particular attention to the insulation around the connectors.

•Disconnect the thermocouple(s) from the thermometer before opening the case.

•Do not use the thermometer if it operates abnormally. Protection may be impaired. When in doubt, have the thermometer serviced.

•Reflective objects result in lower than actual temperature measurements. These objects pose a burn hazard.

•Do not operate the thermometer around explosive gas, vapor, or dust.

•Do not connect to voltages > 30 V ac rms, 42 V pk, 60 V dc from earth ground.
