Features • Up to 30 temperature measurements can be saved and recalled with the device. • Direct one-second access to the temperature measure- ments of the body or an object. • Fever alarm: Any temperature measurements of more than 99.5°F (37.5°C), an acoustic signal automatically sounds in order to indicate an elevated body temperature.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION • Do not use this device if you believe it is damaged or if you notice something unusual. • This thermometer should only be operated by those who are 11 years or older. • This device is not waterproof – do not immerse it in water or other liquids.
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME This device contains two AAA (LR03) alkaline batteries which are equipped with an isolating strip. This isolat- ing strip must be removed from the battery compart- ment before using it for the first time. CHANGING FROM CELSIUS TO FAHRENHEIT: 1.

• If the measurement is unusually low or doesn’t cor- respond with the condition of the patient, the measure- ment should be repeated every 15 minutes or compared to a different measurement of core body temperature. • In the initial stage of a febrile illness, a physi- ological phenomenon called vasoconstriction (vascular constriction) can occur, which leads to a lower skin temperature.

TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT (BODY MODE) 1. Press the POWER button in order to start the ther- mometer in body temperature mode. After activating, the device performs a self-test and switches to body temperature mode after a few seconds. When the thermometer is ready for a measurement in body temperature mode, “- - -”...

To perform another temperature measurement, press the START button and the thermometer starts a new measurement. Once the new measurement is complete, there is a short tone and the new measurement result is displayed. 7. If the measurement returns a result that is above or below the specific temperature range for this mode, “H”...

2. To correctly measure the temperature of an object, hold the device at a distance of about 2 inches (5 cm) or less in front of the surface so that the sensor points toward the object. 3.Once the thermometer is in the correct position, press the START button to perform a measurement of the object’s temperature.

RECALLING TEMPERATURES (MEMORY MODE) 1. Press the M button while device is powerd off in order to activate the memory mode. If no measure- ment results are saved, the thermometer displays “0.” If measurement results are saved, the display begins with the latest temperature measurement.
ERROR MESSAGES AND TROUBLESHOOTING Self Test Startup Error: • If the thermometer determines an error during the self-test phase after activation, “Er” is displayed and 3 short acoustic signals are emitted; the device then switches off after 10 seconds. If this occurs, remove the batteries and wait a few minutes before replacing them in the device.
Measurement Out of Specified Conditions: • The thermometer automatically measures the ambient temperature in body temperature mode and object mode. If the ambient temperature is above or below the defined temperature range, a warning is displayed and the temperature measurement is not carried out. •...
CLEANING THE THERMOMETER • Use an alcohol-soaked swab or a cotton cloth moist- ened with alcohol (70% isopropyl) for cleaning. • Allow the thermometer to dry completely before using again (more temperature measurements). • The device is not waterproof – do not immerse it in water or other cleaning fluids.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS • Dimensions: 140 mm (L) x 43 mm (W) x 47 mm (H) • Weight: Approximately 93 g (including batteries) • Range for measurement of body temperature: 93.2°F (34°C) ~ 108°F (42.2°C) • Range for measurement of the temperature of objects: 32.18°F (0.1°C) ~ 211.8°F (99.9°C) •...
