from actual temperature.
• It is recommended the performance should be checked every two
years.
• Remove battery from the device when is not operation for a long
time.

HOW TO CHANGE BETWEEN CELSIUS AND FAHRENHEIT
Temperature readings are available in the Fahrenheit or Celsius
scale (°C/°F, located in the upper right corner of LCD.) With the unit
off, press and hold the On/Off Button for approximately 4 seconds to
change the current settings.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Wipe or dip thermometer probe with isopropyl rubbing alcohol to
disinfect.
2. Press the On/Off Button next to LCD display. A tone will sound as
the screen shows ‘ ‘ followed by the last record temperature.
After showing the self-test temperature, the thermometer is now in
the testing mode.
Note: If the measured temperature is less than 32°C or 90°F, the LCD
will display Lo, if the measured temperature is higher that 42.9°C or
109.9°F, the LCD will display Hi.
3. Position thermometer in desired location (mouth, rectum, or
armpit)
(a.) Oral Use: Place thermometer under
tongue as indicated by “check
sign” position shown in Figure 1
Close your mouth and
breathe evenly through the nose
to prevent the measurement from
being influenced by inhaled/
exhaled air. Normal temperature
between 35.7°C and 37.3°C (96.3°F and 99.1°F)
(b.) Rectal Use: Lubricate silver probe tip with petroleum jelly for
easy insertion. Gently insert sensor approximately 1 cm (less
than 1/2”) in rectum. Normal temperature between 36.2°C
and 37.7°C (97.2°F and 99.9°F)
(c.) Armpit Use: Wipe armpit dry. Place probe in armpit and keep
arm pressed firmly at side. From a medical viewpoint, this
method will always provided inaccurate readings, and should
not be used if precise measurements are required. Normal
temperature between 35.2°C and 36.7°C (95.4°F and 98.1°F)
4. The degrees sign flashes throughout the testing process. When
flashing stops an alarm will beep for approximately 10 seconds.
The measured reading will appear on the LCD simultaneously.
The displayed temperature will not change when thermometer is
removed from its testing position.
Note: Normally the buzzes are “Bi-Bi-Bi-Bi”; Alarm beeps more rapidly
when temperature reaches 37.8°C (100°F) or higher, and the buzzes
are “Bi-Bi-Bi----- Bi-Bi-Bi----- Bi-Bi-Bi”
