Remove the leather pouch and open the casing with the handle as shown.
8.4.1 Emissivity Most organic materials and lacquered and oxidised surfaces have an emissivity of 0.95. The emissivity is preset to 0.95 in the Ex-MX2 for this reason, but can be changed with the rocker switch. The determination of the temperatures of shiny or highly polished metal surfaces pro- duces inaccurate measured values.
