This thermometer is intended for household use only. Use of this
thermometer is not intended as a substitute for consultation with your
physician.
Temperature elevation may signal a serious illness, especially in neonates
and infants, or in adults who are old, frail, or have a weakened immune
system. Please seek professional advice immediately when there is a
temperature elevation and if you are taking temperature on:
• Neonates and infants under 3 months (Consult your physician
immediately if the temperature exceeds 37.5°C)
• Patients over 60 years of age (Fever may be blunted or absent in
older patients)
• Patients having diabetes mellitus or a weakened immune system
(e.g., HIV positive, cancer chemotherapy, chronic steroid treatment,
splenectomy)
• Patients who are bedridden (e.g., nursing home patient, stroke, chronic
illness, recovering from surgery)
• A transplant patient (e.g., liver, heart, lung, kidney)
This thermometer is not intended for pre-term babies or small-for-
gestational age babies.
This thermometer is not intended to interpret hypothermic temperatures.
Do not allow children to take their temperatures unattended.
Please consult your doctor if you see symptoms such as unexplained
irritability, vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, changes in appetite or activity,
seizure, muscle pain, shivering, stiff neck, pain when urinating, etc., even
in the absence of fever.
Even in the absence of fever, those who exhibit a normal temperature
may still need to receive medical attention. People who are on antibiotics,
analgesics, or antipyretics should not be assessed solely on temperature
readings to determine the severity of their illness.
Do not modify this equipment without the authorization of the
manufacturer.
