Infrared Thermometer Safety Information • • • • • • • See emissivity information for actual temperatures. Reflective objects result in lower than actual temperature measurements. These objects pose a burn hazard. Do not look directly into the laser with optical tools (for example, binoculars, telescopes, microscopes). Optical tools can focus the laser and be dangerous to the eye. Do not look into the laser. Do not point laser directly at persons or animals or indirectly off reflective surfaces.
