LOCK Press the IRT button [D] to enable LOCK-mode (continuous
measurement). Press the hold button [E] to exit LOCK-mode.
°C/°F When °C indication is flashing, press the IRT button [D] to
switch to °F mode and vice versa.
ε
Press the up [E] and down [D] buttons to set the emissivity
(see §7).
 To switch off the thermometer press the ON/OFF button [F] two
times.
Clamp mode
 All data is shown on the probe/clamp LCD [B2].
 Push the clamp trigger [G] to open the clamp [H]. Place the clamp

7. Useful information
Emissivity
Emissivity describes the energy-emitting characteristics of materials.
Most organic or oxidized surfaces have an emissivity of ±0.95 (default
setting). Measuring shiny or polished surfaces will be inaccurate. Use
some masking tape or paint to compensate, allow sufficient time for
the tape or paint to reach the surface temperature.
Refer to the table for an indication of some emissivity values.
