4. Maintenance

Cleaning

To maintain the accuracy and longevity of your infrared temperature gun:

• Wipe the device clean with a soft, damp cloth.
• Do not immerse the device in water or any other liquid.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the plastic casing and lens.
• Ensure the lens is clean and free of dust or debris for accurate readings.

Storage

When not in use, store the temperature gun in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Everdure Infrared Temperature Gun, consider the following:

• No Display/Power: Check if the batteries are correctly installed and have sufficient charge. Replace batteries if necessary.
• Inaccurate Readings: Ensure the lens is clean. The target object should fill the measurement spot for best accuracy. Avoid measuring through glass or shiny surfaces.
• Laser Not Working: Verify that the device is powered on and the trigger is pressed. If the issue persists after checking batteries, contact customer support.
