 • Do not use imaging thermometer for 
testing temperatures of cooked or 
uncooked food.
 • Do not touch surfaces to confirm hot 
temperature readings.
 • Do not use for taking human or animal 
body temperatures.
  •  To avoid damaging the imaging thermometer 
or the equipment under test, protect them from 
the following:
 –  EMF (electromagnetic fields) like from arc 
welders, induction heaters, etc.
    –  ESD (electrostatic discharge).
 –  Thermal shock (caused by abrupt 
ambient temperature changes for highest 
accuracy; allow 30 minutes for the imaging 
thermometer to stabilize before use).
  WARNING: Burn hazard. The reading 
may not be accurate if the imaging 
thermometer is in the presence of 
strong electromagnetic fields (such 
as arc welders, induction heaters, 
ratio transmitters, etc.). Do not use 
the imaging thermometer under these 
conditions.
    WARNING: The imaging thermometer 
measures surface temperature only. 
Objects behind the surface may have 
significantly different temperatures, 
posing a burn or frostbite hazard.
    WARNING: See emissivity information 
for actual temperatures. Reflective 
objects result in lower than actual 
temperature measurements and can 
pose a burn hazard.
    WARNING: Do not expose imaging 
thermometer to excessive heat such as 
sunshine, fire or the like.
   CAUTION: When not in use, place 
imaging thermometer on its side 
on a stable surface where it will not 
cause a tripping or falling hazard. 
Some tools with large battery packs will 
stand upright on the battery pack but 
may be easily knocked over.
   NOTICE: Modifications not authorised 
by the manufacturer may void user’s 
authority to operate this device.
   NOTICE: To avoid damage to the 
imaging thermometer, do not leave 
it exposed to high temperature 
environments or heat sources, for 
example, in a vehicle in the sun. Always 
operate the imaging thermometer 
within the operating range noted in the 
specification chart.
   NOTICE: Do not point the imaging 
thermometer (with or without the lens 
cover engaged) at the sun or other 
intensive energy sources that emit laser 
radiation. This can damage the detector 
inside the imaging thermometer and can 
effect the accuracy.
MICRO SD MEMORY CARD
    WARNING: Choking hazard. The micro 
SD memory card is a small part that 
could lead to a choking hazard and is 
not intended for children.
   NOTICE: It is recommended to use the 
micro SD memory card supplied with 
the imaging thermometer. DEWALT does 
not warrant the use or reliability of other 
aftermarket cards with different brands 
or capacities. It is also recommended to 
frequently transfer the saved images to 
a computer as a backup.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety 
regulations and the implementation of safety 
devices, certain residual risks cannot be avoided. 
These are:
  –  Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
  –  Risk of personal injury due to unintentional 
contact with current-carrying parts during the 
work process.
Markings on Imaging Thermometer
The following pictograms are shown on the imaging 
thermometer:
 Read instruction manual before use.
DATE CODE POSITION
The date code, which also includes the year of 
manufacture, is printed into the housing surface that 
forms the mounting joint between tool and battery.
