6.0 Interpreting results

6.1 The thermometer is within calibration range if the measured values are at:
Tenth degree
Accuracy range with probe cover
36.0°C ±0.2°C (96.8°F ±0.4°F)
38.5°C ±0.2°C (101.3°F ±0.4°F)
41°C ±0.2°C (105.8°F ±0.4°F)
Hundredth degree (high resolution)
The smallest significant digit is the tenths digit (0.X), therefore when interpreting data at the hundredths digit
(0.XX) the reading must be rounded to the nearest tenth prior to interpretation. As such, the accuracy ranges
are as follows:
Accuracy range with probe cover
36.0°C ±0.24°C (96.8°F ±0.44°F)
38.5°C ±0.24°C (101.3°F ±0.44°F)
41°C ±0.24°C (105.8°F ±0.44°F)
