®
thermometer according to the instructions in this user guide.
Operation Mode Set-up (orL / udr / rct / bth): Press ON / OFF for around 4 seconds until the thermometer LCD displays “orL”
and release the button. Press ON / OFF again and toggle between modes until the desired one is displayed and release button.
When you press the On / O button to turn the unit on, it will display your selected mode.
Note: Drinking hot or cold uids, exercising, smoking, or performing other activities may raise or lower your temperature.
It is important for the patient to relax for approximately 5 minutes, mouth closed, prior to taking a reading.
Oral Use
1. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the unit on. The unit will beep once, display the last stored
temperature, and then show the mode of measurement, in this case “orL”. Then the thermometer
will enter into testing mode and will display three dashes with either the Celsius or Fahrenheit symbol.
2. Place the probe tip under the tongue as near as possible to a pocket as shown in Figure 2.
Avoid moving the unit.
3. A series of beeps will signal that peak temperature is reached.
Rectal Use
Note: Rectal temperatures are an appropriate and reliable method for infants and young children. Otherwise,
this method should only be used when it is impossible or impractical to take an oral or axillary temperature.
1.
Press the ON/OFF button to turn the unit on. The unit will beep once, display the last stored temperature, and then show
the mode of measurement, in this case “rct”. Then the thermometer will enter into testing mode and will display three
dashes with either the Celsius or Fahrenheit symbol.
2. Lubricate silver probe tip with petroleum jelly for easy insertion.
Gently insert sensor approximately 1 cm (less than 1/2 “) into rectum.
3.
A series of beeps will signal that peak temperature is reached.
Axillary Use
1. Wipe the underarm with a dry towel.
2.
Press the ON/OFF button to turn the unit on. The unit will beep once, display the last stored temperature, and then show the mode
of measurement, in this case “
udr
”. Then the thermometer will enter into testing mode and will display three dashes with either the
Celsius or Fahrenheit symbol.
3. Place the probe tip under the arm so the tip is touching the skin, with the thermometer perpendicular to the body and keep arm
pressed rmly to the side so that the probe tip is well covered by the arm. This also ensures the probe is not aected by the room’s air.
4.
A series of beeps will signal that peak temperature is reached.
Bath Use
1. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the unit on. The unit will beep once, display the last stored temperature, and then show the
mode of measurement, in this case “bth”. Then the thermometer will enter into testing mode and will display “Lo” with either
the Celsius or Fahrenheit symbol ashing.
2. Place probe tip into bath water until the thermometer beeps indicating that peak temperature is reached.
Note: 1. If the temperature reading is less than 32°C or 90°F, the LCD will display “ Lo ”.
2. If the temperature reading is higher than 42.9°C or 109.2°F, the LCD will display “Hi”.
3. To prolong battery life, press the On/O Button to turn unit o after testing is completed.
If no action is taken, the unit will automatically shut o after around IO minutes.
DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO USE THIS DEVICE WITHOUT PARENTAL SUPERVISION.
• Do not use thermometer in ear. Designed use is for oral, rectal, and armpit (axilla) readings only.
• The use of temperature readings for self-diagnosis is dangerous. Consult your doctor for the interpretation of results.
Self-diagnosis may lead to the worsening of existing disease conditions.
• Do not attempt measurements when the thermometer is wet, as inaccurate readings may result.
• Do not bite the thermometer. Doing so may lead to breakage and/or injury.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the thermometer. Doing so may result in inaccurate readings.
• After each use, disinfect the thermometer especially in case the device is used by more than one person.
• Do not force the thermometer into rectum. Stop insertion when pain is present.
Failure to do so may lead to injury.
• Do not use thermometer orally after being used rectally.
• For children who are two years old or younger, please do not use the device orally.
• If the unit has been stored at temperatures under 5° C or over 40°C (41° F –104° F),
leave it in 5° C – 40° C (41° F – 104° F) ambient temperature for about 15 minutes before using it.
Note: Use of the probe cover may result in a 0.01 °C (0.02 °F) discrepancy from actual temperature.
