NOTE: The Lasergrip cannot measure the temperature of objects behind
glass. Inaccuracy may also occur when exposed to steam, dust or any
other contaminants in the air.
NOTE: The Lasergrip LCD will display ‘OH’ when the measured
temperature is above the measurable range, and will display ‘OL’ when the
measured temperature is below the measurable range.
NOTE: The Lasergrip cannot measure the
temperature of objects behind glass. Inaccuracy
may also occur when exposed to steam, dust or
any other contaminants in the air.
WARNING: THIS DEVICE PRODUCES LASER RADIATION. USE
CLASS 2
EXTREME CAUTION AT ALL TIMES WHEN LASER IS IN USE. DO NOT
LOOK INTO DIRECT OR REFLECTED LASER-LIGHT BEAM OR VIEW BEAM
WITH OPTICAL INSTRUMENTS. DO NOT AIM LASER-LIGHT AT ANOTHER
PERSON OR ANIMAL. LASER RADIATION MAY DAMAGE YOUR EYE. DO
NOT DISASSEMBLE THE DEVICE.
IMPORTANT: Read all of the instructions in this manual.
Failure to comply with the instructions in this manual or use
of the device, in ways other than the ones mentioned in this
manual, may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Operation
Function Diagram
• DO NOT point the laser-light at another person or animal.
• DO NOT attempt to point laser-light at an aircraft.
• Avoid direct/indirect eye contact with the laser-beam. Laser radiation
may cause eye damage.
• DO NOT view the beam with optical instruments.
• In the vicinity of use, make any bystanders aware of the dangers of
looking directly into the laser beam.
• DO NOT allow children to operate the device.
• Use a 9V battery when replacing the battery within the device. Make
sure to insert the battery in accordance with the correct polarities.
• ALWAYS remove the batteries when cleaning the device.
• DO NOT use leaking batteries or dispose old batteries in fire.
• Remove battery for storage if the device is not being used for a
prolonged period of time.
• DO NOT disassemble the device or tamper with internal components.
Doing so will void any warranty.
• DO NOT touch the lens or wipe it using anything other than a soft
cloth or cotton swab.
• Laser guided targeting for aiming precision
• Narrow distance-spot ratio for accurate results at greater distances
• Safely measure hazardous or inaccessible objects
• Standard 9V battery powers up to 12 hours of cumulative use
• Auto-off after 15 seconds of inactivity

1. Once the battery is properly installed, press the measurement trigger
to activate the device.
2. Point the Lasergrip towards the surface of measurement.
3. Press and hold the measurement trigger and the laser will activate for
aiming guidance.
4. Keep holding the trigger as you move the Lasergrip if you wish to live
scan the surface area for temperature measurement.
5. Once the laser is pointed to the desired point of measurement, release
the trigger and the LCD display will lock the calculated temperature.
6. Press the measurement trigger once again to make another
measurement.
• Keep the thermometer away from electromagnetic fields produced by
objects such as arc welders and induction heaters.
• DO NOT expose the thermometer to direct sources of heat for
extended periods of time.
• The thermometer measures surface temperature, not internal
temperature. Do not use the Lasergrip as a reliable source to measure
body temperatures.

To switch between units of temperature
measurement, press the °C/°F button at any
time while the Lasergrip is on.
To activate and deactivate the laser, press the
laser pointer On/Off button at any time while the
Lasergrip is on.
To activate and deactivate the display backlight,
press and hold measurement trigger and then
press the display backlight On/Off button at the
same time.
To adjust the emissivity value before
measurement, press the emissivity adjustment
mode button, then use the UP and DOWM
buttons to navigate to the desired value. You
may refer to the emissivity reference chart for
correct surface emissivity values. To transfer
into Max Temperature Mode, press the mode
button again.
