Important Safety Instructions
• The instrument may be used only for measuring body temperature!
• The minimum measurement time until the beep is heard must be maintained without exception!
• Ensure that children and disabled persons do not use the instrument unsupervised; some parts are
small enough to be swallowed.
• Protect the instrument from impact and dropping!
• Avoid ambient temperatures above 60 °C. NEVER boil the instrument!
• Use only the commercial disinfectants listed in the section «Cleaning and Disinfecting» to clean the
instrument.
Batteries and electronic devices must be disposed of in accordance with the locally applica-

Turning on the Thermometer
To turn on the thermometer, press the ON/OFF
button
a short beep signals «thermometer
ON». A display test is performed. All segments
should be displayed. Then at an ambient tem-
perature of less than 32 °C, an «L» and a flash-
ing «°C» appear at the display field . The ther-
mometer is now ready for use.
Function Test
Correct functioning of the thermometer is tested
automatically each time it is turned on. If a mal-
function is detected (measurement inaccuracy),
this is indicated by «ERR» on the display, and a
measurement becomes impossible. In this case,
the thermometer must be replaced.
Using the Thermometer
Choose the preferred measuring method. When
taking a measurement, the current temperature
is continuously displayed and the «°C» symbol
flashes. If the beep is heard 10 times and the
«°C» is no longer flashing, this means that the
measured increase in temperature is less than
0.1 °C in 16 seconds and that the thermometer
can now be read. To prolong the battery life, turn
off the thermometer by briefly pressing the ON/
OFF button
. Otherwise the thermometer will
automatically turn off after about 10 minutes.
Storage of Measured Values
If the ON/OFF button
is pressed for more than
3 seconds when turning on the thermometer, the
automatically stored maximum temperature dur-
ing the last measurement will be displayed. At the
same time, a «M» for memory will appear on the
display. About 2 seconds after the button is re-
leased, the temperature value disappears and the
thermometer is ready for measurement.
Measuring methods / Normal body tem-
perature
→
In the mouth (oral) / 35.5 - 37.5 °C
Position the thermometer in one of the two pock-
ets under the tongue, to the left or right of the root
of the tongue. The measuring sensor
must be
in good contact with the tissue. Close your mouth
and breathe evenly through the nose to prevent
the measurement from being influenced by in-
haled/ exhaled air.
Approx. measuring time: 1 minute!
→
In the anus (rectal) / 36.6 - 38.0 °C
Carefully insert the measuring sensor
of the
thermometer 2 to 3 cm into the anal aperture.
Approx. measuring time: 1 minute!
→
In the armpit (axillary) / 34.7 - 37.3 °C
A minimum measurement time of 3-5 minutes is
recommended regardless of the beep sound.
Approx. measuring time: 1 minute!
At home, for measurement by parents, for
all children measurement with electronic
thermometer in the armpit is recommended.

Cleaning and Disinfecting
Use an alcohol swab or cotton tissue moistened
with alcohol (70% Isopropyl) to clean the ther-
mometer. Please never immerse into liquids!
Battery Replacement
When the «
▼
» symbol (upside-down triangle) ap-
pears at the display field, the battery is flat and
needs replacing. To replace the battery remove
the battery compartment cover
from the ther-
mometer.
Insert the new battery with the
+
at the top. Make
sure you have a battery of the same type to hand.
Batteries can be purchased at any electrical
store.
