- During the measurement, the °C or °F symbol “flashes” and a temperature will be displayed that will continue to change until a constant temperature is reached.
- As soon as the constant temperature value is reached (approx. 10 seconds)*, a beep will sound 10 times and the °C or °F symbol will stop flashing.
