Page 2: Intended Use
DESCRIPTION ™ Non-Contact Thermometer is a hand Syner-Med VeraTemp held, battery powered device that is intended to be used for the intermittent measurement and monitoring of human body temperature of people of all ages. It measures the infrared energy emitted form the skin surface of the forehead. - Page 3 • Do not drop or expose to electric shocks. • Ambient temperature range for the thermometer is 50°F to 120°F . • Use in a clean and dry area where it will not become excessively cold or hot i.e. temperatures less than greater than (less than or greater than...

- Page 5 The Syner-Med VeraTemp™ Non-Contact Thermometer is calibrated at the factory before shipping. No calibration is necessary. temperature, allow the thermometer to adjust to the “new” temperature for at least 15 minutes before use in order to obtain a reliable result.
- Page 6 When one is hot, the blood vessels in the skin dilate and carry the excess heat to the skin surface. You begin to sweat and as the sweat evaporates it helps to cool the body. Conversely, when the body is cold, the blood ow to the skin is decreased allowing conservation of body heat.

- Page 8 Because of heat loss from various parts of the body that are not covered by clothing, the normal temperature measured on a person’s forehead is usually lower than covered parts of the body. The Syner-Med VeraTemp™ Non-Contact Thermometer’s internal software automatically adjusts the temperature to provide a reading which approximates to the body temperature.
- Page 9 All objects radiate infrared energy. The intensity of this infrared energy depends on the temperature of the object. The Syner-Med VeraTemp™ Non-Contact Thermometer measures the temperature of a person based on the energy they radiate. This measurement is taken by the external temperature probe on the device which constantly analyse and registers the ambient temperature.
- Page 10 The screen will be orange when the measured temperature is between 37.4°C and 37.9°C (99.3°F to 100.2°F) The screen will be red when the measured temperature is greater than 38°C (100.4°F ) The temperature display will remain lit for about 5 seconds after the button is released.
