WWARNING

IF TARGET EMMISSIVITY IS LESS THAN 0.95, THE PROBE CAN INDICATE A TEMPERATURE LOWER THAN THE ACTUAL TARGET TEMPERATURE. AVOID TOUCHING THE TARGET; THERMAL BURNS COULD RESULT.

CAUTION

∙Do not place the probe on or around hot objects (70°C / 158°F). It will damage the probe case.

∙If the probe is exposed to significant changes in ambient temperature (hot to cold or cold to hot), allow 20 minutes for temperature stabilization, before taking measurements.

∙Do not operate the probe near large electrical or magnetic fields such as arc welders and induction heaters. These fields can cause measurement errors.

∙Condensation may form on the lens when going from a cold to hot environment - wait 10 minutes for condensation to dissipate before taking measurements.

∙Connectors must only be plugged into voltage measurement input jacks of the test instruments.

∙Do not touch or hold by the front cone. Temperature readings can be affected by heat from the hand.

∙Equipment use not specified by manufacturer may impair safety.
