HOW TO USE YOUR THERMOMETER

1.  Apply a new, clean probe cover. The  thermometer 

     features a `hands - free´ probe cover application and 

     removal to help avoid cross contamination by HAI’s 

     (healthcare acquired infections).

2.  Press and release the ON/OFF button. The thermometer

     will make an audible “beep” and perform a brief self - test 

     when all the display indicators will be shown.

3.  Following a satisfactory self - test the Okay “ok” symbol

     will be displayed.

4.  The thermometer display will then show three short 

     dashes with a flashing °C (or °F) indicating that the 

     thermometer is ready to take a measurement.
