2. Informazzjoni dwar is-Sigurtà
Please read all safety warnings carefully before using the device.
- This infrared thermometer is intended for measuring surface temperatures only. It is not designed for use on humans or animals, and readings obtained from such applications will be inaccurate.
- Do not attempt to measure the internal temperature of any object with this device.
- Never irradiate human eyes directly or indirectly with the laser beam at any time. Direct exposure can cause eye damage.
- Żomm l-apparat 'il bogħod mit-tfal.
- Do not use the device in environments with explosive gases, vapor, or dust.
- Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.

4. Setup
4.1 Installazzjoni tal-batterija
The INKBIRDPLUS INK-IFT01 requires one 9V 6F22 battery for operation. A new battery can provide approximately 12 months of continuous use.
- Sib l-għatu tal-kompartiment tal-batterija fuq il-manku tat-termometru.
- Gently pull the cover downwards to open the compartment.
- Insert a 9V battery, ensuring the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals align correctly with the markings inside the compartment.
- Agħlaq l-għatu tal-kompartiment tal-batterija sakemm tikklikkja sew f'postu.

5. Operazzjoni
5.1 Teħid ta 'Kejl
- Ipponta t-termometru lejn il-wiċċ fil-mira.
- Press and hold the trigger to activate the laser and begin live temperature readings. The laser dot indicates the center of the measurement area.
- Release the trigger to hold the current temperature reading on the display. The reading will remain on the screen for a short period before the device automatically powers off to save energy.

5.2 Proporzjon tad-Distanza għall-Post (D:S)
The INK-IFT01 has a Distance to Spot Ratio of 12:1. This means that at a distance of 12 units from the target, the measurement spot diameter will be 1 unit. For example, if you are 12 inches away from the target, the measurement area will be 1 inch in diameter. To ensure accurate readings, make sure the target area is larger than the spot size.

5.3 Switching Temperature Units (℃/℉)
To switch between Celsius (℃) and Fahrenheit (℉), press the dedicated ℃/℉/Down Button located below the LCD screen. The display will update to show the selected unit.
5.4 Adjustable Emissivity
Emissivity is a measure of an object's ability to emit infrared energy. Different materials have different emissivities. The INK-IFT01 allows you to adjust the emissivity from 0.1 to 1.0 to improve measurement accuracy for various surfaces. To adjust emissivity, press the MODALITÀ button to enter the emissivity setting, then use the Up u Down buttuni biex jibdlu l-valur.
Refer to the following table for common emissivity values:
| Materjal | Emissività |
|---|---|
| Aluminju (ossidat) | 0.20 - 0.40 |
| Brass (oxidized) | 0.61 |
| Iron (oxidized) | 0.78 - 0.82 |
| Ram (ossidat) | 0.78 |
| Żebgħa (matta) | 0.92 - 0.96 |
| Ilma | 0.93 - 0.96 |
| Injam | 0.90 - 0.95 |
| Konkrit | 0.94 |
Note: This is a partial list. For a comprehensive emissivity table, please refer to the full product manual.
