5. Torolàlana miasa
5.1 Mandray refy
- Point the infrared sensor towards the surface you wish to measure.
- Press and hold the measurement trigger. The 8-point laser will activate, indicating the approximate measurement area.
- The temperature reading will appear on the display. Release the trigger to hold the reading.
- The device has an optics ratio of 12:1, meaning that at a distance of 12 units, the measurement spot diameter is 1 unit. For example, at 12 meters, the spot diameter is 1 meter. Ensure you are at an appropriate distance for accurate readings.

5.2 Fomba fandrefesana
The PTIA 1 offers different operating modes:
- Fandrefesana tsotra: This is the default mode for quick, direct temperature readings of a surface.
- Reference Measurement: In this mode, you can set a reference temperature. The device will then display color indications and signals to highlight differences between the measured value and the set reference value, which is useful for identifying anomalies like thermal bridges. Consult the on-screen prompts or specific mode button for activation.

5.3 Fanakatonana ho azy
To conserve battery life, the device will automatically shut down after approximately 60 seconds of inactivity.
6. Fikojakojana
6.1 Fanadiovana ny fitaovana
- Fafao ny fitaovana amin'ny malefaka, damp lamba. Aza mampiasa mpanadio abrasive na solvents.
- Ensure the infrared lens is clean and free of dust or debris for accurate measurements. Use a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for optics.
- Aza atsoboka ao anaty rano na ranon-javatra hafa ilay fitaovana.
6.2 Fanoloana bateria
When the battery change indicator appears on the display, replace the batteries as described in the 'Battery Installation' section (4.1). Always replace all batteries at the same time with new ones of the same type.
6.3 Fitehirizana
Store the device in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
