6. ROOM TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION
If, when
pressing the “face”
button, the projection
shows “CAL”
,
(“face” and “home” lights will flash)
this means the device needs to be stabilised (see no.
2.1.2).
In this instance, the thermometer will not let you take a
measurement, as it would not be correct. On the contrary, it
will activate the Automatic Quick Calibration System
(AQCS). Now you have two possibilities:
1. Wait about 5 minutes without touching the thermometer,
until the AQCS ends.
2. Perform the MQCS (Manual Quick Calibration System)
procedure as follows:
focus the thermometer on an internal wall or wardrobe with
uniform temperature and at a point between approximately
between 80 and 150 cm (30 and 60 inches) from the
surface press
the “face”
and “home”
button
simultaneously (see fig. 8) (lights will flash).
• once the correct distance is reached (CAL inside the
rectangle, fig. 5), release the button: the projection will flash
slowly showing the room temperature.
To ensure a reliable temperature reading, do not focus the
thermometer on an outside wall, window, source of heat or
cold (radiator, air conditioner, lamp, computer, surface in
contact with the human body, etc.).
The thermometer is now ready to take a reading and will
keep the MQCS for 15 minutes. The MQCS is possible only
if the room temperature is in the 10-45°C (55-113°F)
temperature range.
Manual quick calibration (MQCS) can also be performed if,
for example, you move from room to room which have
different temperatures.
7. HOW TO CHANGE the SETTINGS from CELSIUS (°C)
to FAHRENHEIT (°F), from AXILLARY to ORAL or
RECTAL or CORE and vice versa
Depending on where it is going to be sold, your
thermometer leaves the factory:
- preset to Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F)
-
referred to axillary (“Ax”), oral (“Or.”) or rectal (“rEc”) or
CORE (“Core”) temperature readings or only to CORE
temperature reading.
If necessary, these settings can be changed as follows:
• when the thermometer is off, aim the thermometer at any
flat surface.
• press and hold the “Mem” button; the projection will show
the letter “A”
and after about 8 seconds it will change,
showing the settings in sequence:
…..C...…….F……..Or…….rEc……..Ax…….Cor…
• when the desired setting appears, release the button.
