ExacTemp light will pulse while temperature measurement is in progress. The
light will remain solid for 3 seconds to indicate that a successful temperature
reading has been achieved.
NOTE: If the probe has been properly inserted into the ear canal during the
measurement, a long beep will sound to signal the completed measurement.
If the probe has NOT been constantly placed in a stable position in the ear
canal, a sequence of short beeps will sound, the ExacTemp light will go out
and the display will show an error message (POS = position error).
See «Errors and troubleshooting» section for more information.

Temperature-taking hints
ALWAYS replace disposable lens filters to maintain accuracy and hygiene. The right ear
measurement may differ from the measurement taken in the left ear. Therefore, ALWAYS take the
temperature in the same ear. The ear must be free from obstructions or excess earwax build-up to
take an accurate reading.
External factors may influence ear temperatures, including when an individual has:
Factor
Poor probe placement
Used lens filter
Dirty lens
In the cases below, wait 20 minutes prior to taking a temperature.
Extreme hot and cold room temperature
Hearing aid
Use the untreated ear if ear drops or other ear medications have been placed in the ear canal.
Use the ear that has been facing upwards, if an individual has been lying down on their side
with an ear facedown on a pillow.
Memory mode
This model stores the last 9 temperature measurements.
1
To display the stored measurement, the thermometer
must be turned on.
2
Press the Mem button.
The display shows the temperature, and when
releasing the Mem button, the stored temperature
for that memory number is displayed, together
with "M".
3
Each time the Mem button is pushed, the stored
reading and an M is displayed to indicate each
temperature measurement (e.g. M2).
Memory mode is automatically exited by
not pressing the memory button for 5 seconds.
Night light feature
The thermometer includes a convenient night light
to illuminate the display in a dim environment.
The light will turn on when you press any button. It
