cult situations prevent accurate temperatures from being taken in the
Normal mode.

Automatic backlight, for easier reading of temperature display in darkened
rooms.

Oral/Axillary Probe with 4’ coiled cord and latching plug to prevent
unintentional plug removal.

Mode Button: Recalls the last Normal mode temperature taken, converts
temperatures from °F to °C, switches the unit to Monitor Mode and allows
the clinician to change the measurement site from Oral to Axillary (or vice
versa).

Pulse Timer Button:  Used to time pulse, respiration, IV drip rate or any
other timed measurement.  Audible beeps occur at 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60
seconds.  It turns off automatically after a full 60 seconds.  The timer may
be stopped  at any time by pressing the Pulse Timer or Mode button or by
