1. Prodott Aktarview
The Testo 104-IR is a versatile dual-purpose thermometer designed for accurate temperature measurements in various applications, particularly within the food industry. It combines the functionality of an infrared thermometer for non-contact surface temperature readings and a foldable penetration probe for precise core temperature measurements.
Its robust, waterproof design (IP65) makes it suitable for demanding environments, and its compact, foldable form factor ensures portability and ease of use. The device features a clear, backlit LCD display for quick and easy readouts, and it is HACCP compliant, ensuring reliability for food safety applications.

2. Istruzzjonijiet tas-Sigurtà
- Always read the user manual thoroughly before operating the device.
- Do not point the infrared laser directly at eyes or reflective surfaces.
- Ensure the penetration probe is clean before and after each use, especially when measuring food items.
- Tesponix l-apparat għal temperaturi estremi jew dawl tax-xemx dirett għal perjodi twal.
- Use only the specified battery type (2 x AAA batteries).
- Żomm l-apparat fejn ma jintlaħaqx mit-tfal.
- Armi l-batteriji u l-apparat skont ir-regolamenti lokali.
3. Setup
3.1 Installazzjoni tal-batterija
- Sib il-kompartiment tal-batterija fuq wara tal-apparat.
- Iftaħ l-għatu tal-kompartiment tal-batterija.
- Daħħal żewġ batteriji AAA, waqt li tiżgura l-polarità korretta (+/-).
- Agħlaq l-għatu tal-kompartiment tal-batterija sew.

3.2 Qawwa Inizjali
The device automatically powers on when the penetration probe is unfolded. Ensure the display illuminates upon unfolding.
4. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
4.1 Infrared (IR) Measurement (Non-Contact)
For quick surface temperature readings, use the infrared sensor. This is ideal for checking temperatures of packaged goods or surfaces without direct contact.
- Ensure the penetration probe is folded in.
- Point the front of the thermometer towards the surface to be measured.
- Press the "ON" button to activate the infrared measurement and laser pointer. The laser dots indicate the measurement area.
- Aqra t-temperatura murija fuq l-iskrin LCD.

4.2 Penetration Probe Measurement (Contact)
For accurate core temperature readings of semi-solid or liquid substances, use the foldable penetration probe.
- Unfold the penetration probe. The device will automatically power on.
- Insert the probe into the substance to be measured, ensuring the tip is fully immersed to the desired depth.
- Wait for the reading to stabilize on the display. The device has a fast reaction time (t99 = 10 seconds in moving liquid).

4.3 Hold and Min/Max Functions
- ŻOMM: Press the "HOLD" button to freeze the current temperature reading on the display. Press again to release.
- MIN / MAX: While in measurement mode, press the "MIN/MAX" button to cycle through the minimum and maximum temperatures recorded during the current measurement session.
4.4 Qawwa Mitfi
To turn off the device, fold the penetration probe back into its housing. The device will automatically power down.
5. Manutenzjoni
5.1 Tindif
The Testo 104-IR is waterproof (IP65 rated), allowing for easy cleaning under running water or with a damp cloth. Ensure the probe is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after each use, especially when used with food products.

5.2 Sostituzzjoni tal-batterija
When the battery indicator on the display shows low power, replace the batteries as described in Section 3.1. Always use fresh AAA batteries.
5.3 Ħażna
Store the thermometer in a clean, dry place at room temperature. Ensure the probe is folded in to protect it from damage.
