• The accuracy does not include the tolerance of thermocouple probe. The thermal sensor
plugged into the multimeter should be placed in the operating environment for at least one
hour.
• Use Null function to reduce the thermal effect.
• When measuring temperature with respect to any temperature calibrator, set both the
calibrator and multimeter with external reference (without internal ambient compensation). If
both calibrator and multimeter are set with internal reference (with internal ambient
compensation), deviation may be shown between the readings of the calibrator and
multimeter, due to differences in ambient compensation between calibrator and multimeter.
• Do not contact the temperature sensor to any surface that is energized above 33 Vrms or
70 VDC, such the voltage source will pose a shock hazard.
