Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of our IR Thermometer. This thermometer is
intended for scanning groups of individuals or monitoring an individual for ele­vated temperatures. Always use a clinical thermometer when high accuracy body
temperature measurements are required

Considerations and Warnings:

• Read all instructions before using this product.

• For the most accurate results, make reading with an ambient (room)
temperature of 10 to 40°C (50 to 104°F).

• Make sure the skin is dry and that no hair interferes with the measurement.

• Do not immerse the thermometer in water.

• Avoid touching and/or scratching the infrared sensor lens.

• Always use a clinical thermometer to verify any abnormal temperature meas­urements.

• Clean the lens area by gently blowing with compressed air and use a damp
swab to wipe the lens. Do not use any solvents to clean the lens.

Measurement Notes

• If the meter has been stored in a cold or hot environment, allow it at least 30
minutes to acclimate to room temperature before making measurements.

• To prevent transmission of disease, avoid direct contact with the skin.

• After heavy exercise always wait at least 10 minutes before taking forehead
temperature readings.

Storage and maintenance

• Clean the sensor tip after each use. Use a clean cloth or cotton bud that can be
moistened with disinfectant, alcohol or warm water.

• To clean the entire device, please use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild
soapy solution.

• Do not use any harsh cleaning products.

• If prolonged storage is intended, you should remove the battery.

• The device must not be stored or used at an excessively high or low tempera­ture or humidity (see technical data), in sunlight, in association with an electrical
current or in dusty locations. Otherwise inaccuracies can occur.

Operation Instructions

Temperature Mode settings

• With the meter ON, press “Mode” button, for three seconds until to “F-1”
shown to enter the long term calibration drift correction mode. On entering the
mode, the previous temperature correction factor will appear on the display. To
make a correction, measure a known, xed temperature source. Enter the cor­rection mode and press the + or - buttons to change the correction value and
minimize the difference in readings. Repeat and adjust the correction value as
needed until the measurement on the meter matches the known temperature.

The mode is applied to Body Temp.

ENGLISH

• Press the “Mode” button a second time “F-2” shown to set the alarm temper­ature limit. Press the + or - buttons to change the value.

The mode is applied to Body Temp

• Press the “Mode” button a third time “F-3” shown to set the °C/°F temperature
units. The temperature units °C or °F will be shown. Press the + or - buttons to
change the unit.

• Press the “Mode” button a forth time “F-4” shown to set the backlit status.
Press the + or - buttons to switch from ON to OFF.

• Press the “Mode” button a fth time “F-5” shown to set the laser status.
Press the + or - buttons to switch from ON to OFF.

Notice: Only when the laser head installed.

Body Temperature Measurements

Please note that the forehead/temples must be free from sweat and cosmetics
and that taking vasoconstrictive medication and skin irritations can distort the
result when measuring temperature on the forehead.

• Press the trigger to switch the meter on with one beeper. The device performs
a brief self test: all elements of the display are shown for approx. 1 second.
Following a successful self test with backlit (Red-Orange-Green).

• Press the “B/O” button for “Body temp” for accurate measurements in the
range of 32.0 to 42.9°C (89.6 to 109.2°F).

• Hold the meter by its handle and point it toward the surface to be measured.
Measurement distance should be <2.5cm (<1 in).

• Press the trigger to take a temperature reading. The temperature reading ap­pears in the display.

If the F-4 MODE of backlit & “ ” button voice ON & F-3 MODE set alarm

temperature 38.0°C:

• Release the trigger and the reading will hold for approximately 15 seconds after
which the meter will automatically shut off

Note: Before shutting off, you can take further measurement.

• If the temperature goes above 109.2°F or 42.9°C, Hi will appear in the display.

If the temperature goes below 89.6°F or 32.0°C, Lo will appear in the display.

Notice: When surrounding temperature is lower than 10.0°C or higher
than 40.0°C, it’s not allowed to measure of accuracy in not assured.

Object Temperature Measurements

• Press the trigger to switch the meter on with one beeper. The device performs
a brief self test: all elements of the display are shown for approx. 1 second.
Following a successful self test with backlit (Red-Orange-Green).

• Press the “B/O” button for “Object temp” for accurate measurements in the
range of 0.0 to 100.0°C (32.0 to 212.0°F).

• Hold the meter by its handle and point it toward the surface to be measured.

• Press the trigger to take a temperature reading. The temperature reading ap­pears in the display.

• Release the trigger and the reading will hold for approximately 15 seconds after
which thermometer will automatically shut off.

Note: Before shutting off,you can take further measurements.

• If the temperature goes above 212°F or 100°C, “Hi” will appear in the display.

If the temperature goes below 32°F or 0°C, “Lo” will appear in the display.

Notice:

• The value under this Mode is object temperature instead of core temperature.

• The defaulted infrared from the real temperature according to different emissiv­ity. For example,the reading on stainless steel will be obviously lower than the
actual temperature. BE CAUTIONS FOR SCALDING.

Data memory

• To review the logged data points, press the “Memory” button for one second
while the units is ON until “M” symbol shown on the display. Use the + or ­buttons to scroll through the stored measurements and memory locations. To
delete all memory data, pls take off the batteries when power on.

IR Measurement Notes

• Before measuring, be sure to clean surfaces that are covered with frost, oil,
grime, etc.

• If an object’s surface is highly reective, apply masking tape or at black paint
to the surface before measuring. Allow time for the paint or tape to adjust to the
temperature of the surface it is covering.

•

Measurements through transparent surfaces such as glass may not be accurate.

• Steam, dust, smoke, etc. can obscure measurements.

• The meter automatically compensates for deviations in ambient temperature.
However, it can take up to 30 minutes for the meter to adjust to extremely wide
changes.
