10. CLEANING
CLEANING THE WAVEGUIDE: the thermometer
waveguide (see fig. 1) is very delicate. Therefore, when the
thermometer is not being used, we recommend that you
always keep the cap on. However, if you need to remove
dust or dirt from the waveguide or sensor at its base, use a
cotton swab that has been slightly dampened with alcohol.
Remove all dirt and make certain that nothing accumulates
at the bottom of the waveguide where the sensor is
located. Do not use any other objects or liquids as the
surface of the sensor could easily be scratched or
damaged. Never let any excess liquid penetrate into the
waveguide and sensor.
CLEANING THE THERMOMETER BODY: use a soft cloth
dampened with soap and water and possibly re-wipe with a
sodium hypochlorite disinfectant.
DO NOT USE the thermometer for at least 30 minutes
after cleaning.
11. REPLACING the BATTERIES
• Set your thumb in the oval hollow on the back of the unit,
press down and slide the battery cover out (see fig 10).
• Remove the battery cover.
• Remove the old batteries and dispose of them in an
environmentally friendly way.
• Insert 4 new AAA - LR03 batteries, preferably alkaline,
carefully ensuring they are inserted correctly.
• To close the cover, slide it in the opposite direction from
which it was opened. After changing the batteries, let the
thermometer stabilise for 20 minutes before taking a
temperature reading, or run an MQCS (see no.6).
• Remove the batteries if you do not expect to use the
thermometer for a long time.
