Not recommended for use in measuring shiny or polished
metal surfaces (stainless steel, aluminum, etc.) The
reading will not be accurate.
It is not possible to take measurements through
transparent materials (glass, Plexiglas, etc.). It will
measure the temperature of the transparent surface
instead.
It is not possible to measure air temperatures.
Measurement errors can occur due to air contaminated
with dust, steam, smoke, etc.
Battery Replacement:
Battery is low and no more measurements are possible.
Replace the battery immediately with a CR2032 lithium button
cell.
