No Touch Temporal Thermometer
Basics of Your Thermometer
Normal Body Temperature
Trouble Shooting
normal forehead
temp range
Temperature readings are different from person to person and also vary
depending upon the body location from which the temperature is
measured. Forehead temperatures tend to be comparable to oral
temperatures and approximately 1˚ lower than rectal temperatures for
the same individual. Temperature readings can also be affected by other
factors, including exercise, consuming hot or cold food/beverages prior
to taking a reading, and technique.
“Normal” temperature refers to each individual’s average temperature
while healthy. You may want to measure and record your child’s
temperature a few times when he or she is well, so that you will know
what is normal for your own child. On average, temperature ranges
are as follows:

Measured temperature is below this thermometer’s
range. See Technical Specifications section for
Measurement Temperature Range.
•
Measured temperature is above this thermometer’s
range. See Technical Specifications section for
Measurement Temperature Range.
•
Thermometer may have been stored in a cold or hot
environment.
•
If the environment’s temperature is outside the
permissible range, then this thermometer cannot
function here. See Operation Environment for range.
• Ensure thermometer is being positioned correctly (see Operating Thermometer).
• Ensure
icon does not appear. If it does, replace batteries.
• Consistent readings may indicate that the sensors are dirty (see Care and
Maintenance).
• Object is too cold to be measured by this thermometer.
• Ensure thermometer is being positioned correctly (see Operating Thermometer).
• Ensure that you are in the correct mode (Forehead or Object).
• Object is too hot to be measured by this thermometer.
• Allow thermometer to reach room temperature, then re-take temperature
measurement.
•
Batteries are low. Replace them. (See Battery Information section)
•
For best accuracy, wait two minutes between temperature measurements so that
thermometer has time to re-acclimate to the room’s temperature.
•
Do not return this product to the place of purchase. If any parts are missing, email
[email protected], call Consumer Relations at (800) 544-1108, or fax at
(800) 207-8182. You can also visit our website at www.safety1st.com. Have ready the

displayed (Figure F). NOTE: Wait 2 minutes before taking another
measurement so that thermometer has time to re-acclimate to the
room’s temperature.
6.
Press the ON/OFF button to turn thermometer off. If left on, it will
automatically shut off in about 1 minute.
