INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing TD-1242 Forehead Thermometer. Please read this
instruction manual first so you can use this thermometer safely and correctly.
Please keep this instruction manual for future reference. This innovative
medical device uses advanced infrared (IR) technology to measure
temperature instantly and accurately on the forehead / surface. TD-1242
Forehead Thermometer delivers a body temperature reading from the thermal
radiation emitted from the forehead without contact to the body. (The surface
temperature measurement is not for medical purposes.)
Before using this product, please read the following contents thoroughly and
carefully.
INTENDED USE
The Forehead thermometer is an infrared thermometer intended for the
non-contact measurement of human body temperature in people of all ages
and may be used by medical professionals or by consumers in a home
environment.
HOW DOES IT WORK
The thermometer measures the infrared heat generated by the surface of the
skin over the vessel and its surrounding tissue.
The thermometer then converts it into a temperature value shown on LCD.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ THIS BEFORE USING AND KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS IN A
SAFE PLACE
1. Close supervision is necessary when the thermometer is used by, on, or
near children, handicapped persons or invalids.
2. Read this manual thoroughly and carefully prior to using. Use the thermom-
eter only for the intended use described in this manual.
3. This device is a precision optical thermometer. Handle carefully and do not
drop. Do not use if thermometer has suffered damage.
4. Keep the sensor end clean and free of debris. See Maintenance section for
instructions.
5. This device is a non-sterile device. Do not use ethylene oxide gas, heat,
autoclave, or any other harsh methods to sterilize the device.
6. If coming from an environment of warmer or cooler temperature or after a
period of exertion, allow the user and the thermometer to acclimate to room
temperature for 30 minutes prior to taking a measurement.
7. As the forehead temperature may be affected by sweat, oil and the
surrounding temperature, the reading shall be taken as a reference only.
8. Do not use in presence of flammable anesthetic mixtures.
9. Do not use accessories which are not supplied or recommended by the
Version 1.1
manufacturer. Do not try to modify the device to prevent any dangers.
10. Proper maintenance is essential to the longevity of your device. This

tions, you don't need to adjust it regularly. However, if you are concerned
about the accuracy of measurement, please contact the local customer
service or place of purchase for help.
11. Always contact the manufacturer or the manufacturer's representative to
report unexpected operation or event. Do not try to fix it by yourself.
12. When using the thermometer, stay away from electromagnetic radiation,
such as the mobile in use.
13. Do not expose the device to strong electrostatic fields or strong magnetic
fields to avoid affecting the measurement accuracy.
14. Used in close proximity to others, EMC must be tested and verified.
15. Keep probe covers out of reach of children. The small parts detached from
the device may result children choking from inhaling or swallowing.
16. Do not try to maintain the device while it is in use.
CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
• Always operate the thermometer in an operating temperature range 10°C to
40°C (50°F to 104°F), and 30% to 85% relative humidity.
• Always store the thermometer in a cool and dry place: temperatures between
-20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F); 30% to 85% relative humidity.
• Do not sense body temperature from site of scarred tissue or tissue compro-
3
mised by skin disorder; patients in trauma; patients treated with certain drug
therapies.
• Avoid direct sunlight. Do not place it on the fireplace, or near heating/cooling
sources.
• Avoid dropping the thermometer, if it happens and you think the thermometer
4
may be damaged, please contact customer services immediately.
