1. Turn on the thermometer by pressing the Start button. The thermometer will
perform self-test with all segments displayed for 2 seconds. See figure 3.
2. After full display over, you will hear "beep beep beep", which means that the
self-test is complete. The last measured temperature will be displayed. If no data
is saved to memory, the display will indicate "----". See figure 4.
3. When initialisation is complete, the memory symbol disappears and the unit
symbol starts flashing, which means the measurement can be started. See figure
5.
4. If the person being measured is more than one years old, please pull the ear up
and back gently. If less than one year old, pull ear back gently.
5. Insert the thermometer probe slowly into the ear canal and press the START
button. The device will start measuring with a short "beep" once at the start,
then 2 - 5 seconds later. Finally 5 short "beeps" means measurement has been
completed, and the target value of the measured temperature will display on the
LCD. The LCD backlit colour will change to red, yellow or green. Green means the
Normal Temperature and ready for measurement . Yellow means Slight Fever.
Red indicates High Fever. Please kindly note that both yellow and red colour are
a warning.
Note: Colour Alarm is only for Body mode, Surface mode has a Green backlight.
