In Predictive mode, the monitor automatically enters Monitor mode in the following
cases:
â– Accurate temperature is not reached.
â– Neither measurement is taken nor is the probe replaced in the probe well in 60
seconds after the probe is withdrawn from the well.
The temperature type automatically changes to Predictive mode when the probe
returns to the probe well.
• In Predictive mode, place the temperature probe at the measurement site as
soon as probe warmup is complete; otherwise, an inaccurate temperature
reading may result.
• In Predictive mode, if the probe
• temperature is high due to the environmental temperature or other causes,
cool the probe and then measure the patient's temperature.
• The temperature reading displays continuously until the probe is again
removed from the probe well.
10.2.3 Taking a Temperature in Monitor Mode
To measure a temperature in the Monitor mode,
1. Make sure that the probe is placed in the probe well.
2. Make sure that the temperature measurement type and site settings are correct.
3. Remove the probe from the probe well and insert it into a cover in the probe cover
pack. Press the probe handle down firmly until the cover engages with the probe.
4. Place the probe at the measurement site and then the monitor measures the site
temperature. Refer to Step 4 in 10.2.2 Taking a Temperature in Predictive Mode for
how to place a probe.
5. Withdraw the probe. Firmly press the ejection button on the top of the probe to
eject the probe cover. Replace the probe into the probe well.
• In Monitor mode, record the measured value prior to taking the probe away
from the measurement site. The monitor will automatically stop measuring
temperature after 10 minutes from the start of the measurement.
