13. CARE OF THE THERMOMETER
WARNING
The N9005 and N9094 thermometers are dust and waterproof
as stated in the specifications and will withstand harsh
environments. Use a damp cloth or warm soapy water to
remove deposits and prevent them from hardening or becoming
sticky. Do not use solvent-based cleaners or methylated spirits,
etc.
Caution: Do not place any thermometer in a dishwasher.
Never use the thermometer/probes:-
To measure the temperature of live power conductors
To lift, lever or hammer
In a microwave oven … the door will not close properly and the
microwave radiation could damage the thermometer and oven
In a normal oven … the plastic parts may melt
Don’t try to clean the plastic case or probe handle with any
form of solvent ... it may attack the plastic or cause it to become
brittle. It is just as effective to use a damp cloth and normal
kitchen cleaner … regularly.
Don’t forget to regularly check your thermometer. Try to build
cross checks into your everyday operations so that potential
problems are immediately identified.
Always:
Keep your instrument and probe clean.
Use the correct probe for the particular job.
Remove the battery if you are storing your instrument for long
periods.
Take care when inserting the penetration probe into hard
substances. The sharp point can easily penetrate flesh.
keep records of the temperatures you have measured. It may
provide useful evidence if there is ever a problem.
