OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING
The Digital Thermometer provides quick, highly accurate reading over the body temperature range. Please read the instruction
completely rst. lt is designed to acquaint you with features of your new thermometer so that you can best enjoy its functions
and ensure it gives you years of dependable performance. If thermometers are used by children, the supervision of the adult is
compulsory.
The quality of the device has been veri ed and conforms to the provisions of the EC council directive 93/42/EEC (Medical
Device Directive) Annex I essential requirements and applied harmonized standards. EN 12470-3:2000/A1 :2009 Clinical

HOW TO USE
1. Push the On/O button by the display window. The display will read
2. Releasing the on/o button, last measured temperature will be shown for about 2 seconds. Then shows the self-test
temperature 37.0°C(98.6°F) .And then Lo°C (Lo°F) displays.
3. Wipe or dip the probe with alcohol for disinfection. Position the probe in oral, rectal, axillary etc.
For oral use, please put the sensor into the position marked by "
the accuracy, please keep the mouth dosed for 5 minutes before testing.
4. Once the degree sign °C ( °F) on the display has stopped ashing (usually within 30 to 60 seconds), an alarm signal
will sound for approx. 10 seconds, the measured temperature is shown on LCD window. The temperature reading will not
change after the unit is removed from testing position. If the temperature <37.8°C(100.0°F ). the buzzer will alarm
"Bi---Bi---Bi---Bi---", if the temperature ≥ 37.8°C (100.0°F). the buzzer whose frequency is higher will alarm "Bi-Bi-Bi----Bi-Bi-Bi--"
about 10 secs rather than"Bi---Bi---Bi---Bi---"
5. The unit will automatically tu m o in 1 0 minutes for energy-5aving. However, to prolong the life of the battery, it is suggested
to press the On/O button to tu m the unit o once the measurement is done.

6. Please dispose of any used battery and the thermometer according to the law.
Note: In step 2, if the room temperature is greater than 32.0°C (89.6°F ). it will be displayed the room temperature.
Note: Usage of the probe cover may result in a 0.1°C(0.2°F) di erence from actual temperature.
ORAL USE
Place the probe well under the patient's tongue. Con rm the patient to keep his mouth closing for about 1 minute.
The normal temperature by this method is 37.0°C (98.6°F).
RECTAL USE
Lubricate the probe with the petroleum jelly for easier insertion. Gently insert the probe about one centimeter (less than
1/2 inch.) into the patient's rectum for about 1 minute. A normal temperature by this method is about 37.6°C(99.7°F).
AXILLARY USE
Wipe armpit with a dry towel. Place probe in the patient's armpit and keep the patient's arm pressed rmly against his
side for about 1 minute. A normal temperature by this method is 36.5°C(97.7°F).
CLEANING AND DISINFECTION
1. Clean the unit by wiping it with a dry cloth and sterilize the probe with ethyl alcohol.
2. Don't let the unit contact any chemical thinner.
3. Not waterproof. Do not soak the display in water. Only the probe is waterproof.
CAUTION
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
1. When the " " appears in the lower right corner of the LCD, the battery is exhausted and needs replacement.
2. Pull the battery cover o with hand in the direction shown below.
3. Gently pull out the circult board with battery chamber approximately 1 cm.
4. Use pointed object such as a pen to take out the exhausted battery. Discard exhausted battery out reach of children.
5. Place a new 1.5V D.C. button size battery type SR41, UCC 392 or LR41 or equivalent in the chamber with positive
side faced up and negative side faced down.
6. Cover the battery.
