  If your Caretalk Thermometer displays 'Lo' or 'Hi', it could be due to a few reasons. The measured temperature might be outside the thermometer's range (lower than 32.0°C/89.6°F or higher than 42.9°C/109.3°F). Ensure you are following the user manual for correct measurement procedures. If the issue persists, it could indicate a problem with the temperature sensor, such as it being open or short-circuited, in which case you should contact your distributor.

  If your Caretalk Thermometer isn't responding or resets automatically when you pull out the insulator, here's what to check: * **Battery Condition:** The battery might be used up. Try replacing it with a new one. * **Battery Polarity:** Ensure the battery is inserted with the correct polarity. If not, take it out and reinsert it correctly. * **Battery Contact:** Poor contact can prevent the thermometer from working. Try changing to a new battery or reinserting the current one to ensure proper contact.

  If you're questioning the accuracy of your Caretalk Thermometer, consider these factors: * **Stabilization Time:** Ensure both the thermometer and the patient have been in the measuring room for at least 30 minutes to stabilize. * **Indoor Use:** Confirm you are taking the measurement indoors. * **Thermometer Handling:** If you held the thermometer too long, put it on a table in the measuring room to cool down before use.
