Use of the thermometer
Note: If there is any temperature difference between the places where the device is stored and where you are going to measure, subject and the device should
stay in the same room for at least 15 minutes before measurement.
1. Always make sure the probe is clean, and without damage.
Warning: Choking from swallowing small parts and batteries by children or pets is possible,
please keep small parts and batteries at places where children and pets can’t reach.
2. Power on: Press “ON/MEM” button.(see figure 1)
3. Mode selection:
3.1
Ear mode
: Press the “Ear” button, you can get the body temperature by ear measurement after hearing two beep sounds. (see figure 1)
3.2 Forehead mode
: Press the “FOREHEAD” button, you can get the body temperature by forehead measurement after hearing two beep sounds. (see figure 2)
3.3
Surface mode
:
Press and hold the “ON/MEM” button, and press the “FOREHEAD” button one
time
, you can see the icon on your LCD display(see figure 3). In this mode,
press the “FOREHEAD” button to get the target surface temperature.
3.4 Stopwatch
:
Press and hold the “ON/MEM” button, and press the “FOREHEAD” button twice
,
you can see the icon on your LCD display(see figure 4). In this mode, press the
“FOREHEAD” button to count by 0.01sec to 3 minutes.
4. Temperature taking:
4.1 Ear temperature measuring, points for attention:
Remarks:
a. It is recommended that you measure 3 times with the same ear. If the 3 measurements are different, select the highest temperature.
b. To avoid the risk of cross contamination, please clean the probe according to “Care and cleaning” section after each use.
c. The different temperature varies in healthy persons between different parts of the body can be between 0.2~1°C
d. The “Clinical Bias” is -0.5 ~ -0.7°C.
e. The “Limits of Agreement is 1.02.
f. The "Repeatability" is 0.19°C.
4.1.1 Gently pull the ear back to straighten the ear canal (Fig.4.1.1) and snugly position the probe into the ear canal, aiming
towards the membrane of the eardrum to obtain an accurate reading (Fig.4.1.2).
4.1.2 Press and hold the “Ear” button until you hear a beep sound. Remove the probe from ear and read the temperature
measurement on the LCD. After each ear measurement, wait the ear icon stop flashing to be ready for next measurement.
4.2 Forehead temperature measuring, points for attention:
Remarks:
a. Forehead temperature is displayed in oral mode. This mode converts the forehead temperature to display its “oral-equivalent” Value.
b. Before the measurement, the subject should stay in a stable environment for 5mins and avoid exercise, bath for 30mins.
c. Remember to keep the forehead area clean and away from sweat, cosmetics and scar while taking temperature.
d. The “Clinical Bias” is -1.4 ~ -1.7°C.
e. The “Limits of Agreement” is 0.98.
f. The "Repeatability" is 0.20°C.
You can hold the thermometer within 1 cm from the central forehead (See Figure 5) and press the "FOREHEAD" button to get the forehead measurement.
The time consuming for measurement might be 1 second. After two short beeps are heard, the icon stops flashing to be ready for next measurement.
4.3 Measuring temperature under surface mode:
4.3.1 When you press the “FOREHEAD” button, you will get the real time temperature immediately. If you press and hold the “FOREHEAD” button, the reading of
measurement will be continuous updated.
4.3.2 Applications include temperature measurements for Water, Milk, Cloth, Skin or other object.
* Note: This mode shows the actual, unadjusted surface temperatures, which is different from the body temperature.
4.4 Get the room temperature
4.4.1 Setting “Real time clock” first to enable this function. After power off, room temperature will be shown on the screen with icon.
4.4.2 For room temperature, the thermometer should be placed on the table and avoid the direct sunshine or air conditioner flow on.
4.4.3 The room temperature can be reference after 15min later.
5. After measurement:
5.1 Power off: Device will automatically shut off if left idle for more than 1 minute to extend battery life. The LCD will only show the date, time and room temperature.
5.2 Clean the probe after each use to ensure an accurate reading and avoid cross contamination. (See the section of Care and Cleaning for details.)
5.3 Remember to put on the Probe Cap when not in use.
Use of the Stopwatch
1.
Press and hold the “ON/MEM” button, and press the “FOREHEAD” button twice for “stopwatch” mode.
2.
For start or stop counting, press the “FOREHEAD” button; for reset counting, press the “ON/MEM” button.
3.
Press and hold the “ON/MEM” button, and press the “FOREHEAD” button to enter the forehead mode.
4.
How to measure the heartbeat? If you count out the number of beating is 18 in 15sec, then you can calculate the heartbeat of patient is 72 times in 1min.
Important Notes
Care and cleaning
T
he probe is the most delicate part of the thermometer. Use with care when cleaning the lens to avoid damage.
a. Please use alcohol swabs or cotton swabs moistened with 70%~75% alcohol to clean the probe lens.
b. Allow the probe to fully dry for at least 1 minute.
c. Storage temperature range: It should be stored at room temperature between -20~+50°C, RH
≤
85
%
d .Keep the unit dry and away from any liquids and direct sunlight.
e. The Probe should not be submerged into liquids.
* Note: Please check the device if damaged once it falls. If you can’t make sure of it ,please send the complete device
to the nearest retailer for recalibration.
Holding the thermometer too long may cause a higher ambient temperature reading of the probe.
This could make the body temperature measurement lower than usual.
