The measurement result will be directly shown on the LED screen. The main components of the product include infrared temperature sensors, signal receiving processor, buttons, buzzer, LED display, battery, etc.

Product intended use/Indications for Use

The infrared thermometer is intended for the measurement and monitoring of human body temperature by physician in healthcare environment or lay person at home. The ear mode of the device is not intended for infants less than three months.

Contradictions: There are no known cortrnindications
Side-effects: Not applicable.

Safety Information

Warnings:

• The device is not intended for Professional Use.
• The measurement results cannot replace the physician diagnosis.
• Read the instruction manual before using this device.
• The thermometer should be placed where children can’t get access.
• Do not measure against the eyes.
• Do not try to change the product default settings.
• Use the thermometer in a stable temperature environment. If the environment temperature changes too often, for example from outdoor to indoor, please put the thermometer indoor for about half an hour before measuring.
• Do not measure body temperature immediately when the current two measured temperatures differ significantly, but 10 minutes later to perform the measurement.
• Keep the thermometer away from any liquid to avoid any damage to the device.
• Do not use in high or low temperature environment for a long time.
• Do not collide, and avoid any falling and disassembly by the user
• Do not use in strong electromagnetic interference environment.
• Do not operate the thermometer when the ear is not clean, or the skin of the forehead is sweating.
• The dispose of the thermometer should be accorded to local regulations
• Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally
• Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer of this device could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation
• Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the device, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.

Principle

Any object with the temperature of higher than absolute zero degree will transmit some infrared radiation energy according to its own temperature.
The radiation energy and its distribution per wavelength are closely associated with its surface temperature. Based on the principle, it is possible to measure the forehead surface temperature and then adjust the offset between forehead temperature and actual body temperature, which will realize the correct display of body temperature.

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, anelectromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which BREEZE is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, BREEZE should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating BREEZE

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and BREEZE

BREEZE is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of BREEZE can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and BREEZE as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.
