FEATURES

Normal Mode: The thermometer takes rectal temperatures in about 15
seconds. The unit will always operate in Normal mode unless the Mode
button is depressed for more than 2 seconds after the initial temperature is
displayed which changes it to Monitor Mode. Replacing the probe in the
storage channel automatically resets the unit to Normal mode.
Monitor Mode: Monitor mode is generally used for long term (continuous)
temperature monitoring or when difficult situations prevent accurate
temperatures from being taken in the Normal mode.
Rectal Probe with 4' coiled cord and latching plug.
Optional Rectal Probe with 9' coiled cord and latching plug.
Mode Button: Recalls the last Normal mode temperature taken, converts
temperatures from °F to °C, switches the unit to Monitor Mode.
