Remove the batteries and set the measuring unit switch to the desired unit.
8. D:S Ratio
The thermometer has a visual angle and a visual spot size. Make sure the target is larger than the unit’s visual spot size. The smaller the
target, the closer you should be to it. The relationship between distance and spot size is 6:1.
Units in mm, D = distance, S = spot size
