KET TO SYMBOLS
GENERAL WARNINGS
- Read instructions thoroughly before using digital thermometer. 2) Choking
Hazard: Thermometer cap and battery may be fatal if swallowed. Do not allow
children to use this device without parental supervision. 3) Do not use
thermometer in ear. Designed use is for oral, rectal, and armpit (axilla)
readings only. 4) Do not place thermometer battery near extreme heat as it may
explode. 5) Note: Use of the probe cover may result in a 0.1 °C(0.2°F)
discrepancy from actual temperature. 6) Remove battery from the device when
not in operation for a long time. 7) The use of temperature readings for self-
diagnosis is dangerous. Consult your doctor for the interpretation of results.
Self-diagnosis may lead to the worsening of existing disease conditions. 8) Do
not attempt measurements when the thermometer is wet as inaccurate readings
may result. 9) Do not bite the
thermometer. Doing so may lead to breakage and/or injury. 10) Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the thermometer. Doing so may result in inaccurate readings. 11) After each use, disinfect the thermometer especially in case the device is used by more than one person. 12) Do not force the thermometer into the rectum.

DIRECITIONS
-
Press the On/Off Button next to LCD display. A tone will sound as the screen shows , followed by last recorded temperature. After showing the self-test temperature, the thermometer is now in the testing mode.
-
Position thermometer in desired location (mouth, rectum, or armpit.)
a) Oral Use: Place thermometer under tongue as indicated by “√” position shown in Figure. Close your mouth and breathe evenly through the nose to prevent the measurement from being influenced by inhaled/exhaled air. Normal temperature between 35.7°C and 37.3°C (96.3°F and 99.1°F).
b) Rectal Use: Lubricate silver probe tip with petroleum jelly for easy insertion. Gently insert sensor approximately 1cm (less than 1/2 “) into rectum. Normal temperature between36.2°Cand 37.7°C (97.2°F and 99.9°F).
c) Armpit Use: Wipe armpit dry. Place probe in armpit and keep arm pressed firmly at side.
From a medical viewpoint, this method will always provide inaccurate readings, and should not be used if precise measurements are required.
Normal temperature between 35.2°C and 36.7°C (95.4°F and 98.1°F). -
The degree sign flashes throughout the testing process. When flashing stops an alarm will beep for approximately 10 seconds. The measured reading will appear on the LCD simultaneously. The minimum measurement time until the signaling tone (beep) must be maintained without exception. The measurement continues even after the buzzer notification.
*Note: Normally the buzzes are “Bi-Bi-Bi- Bi-”; Alarm beeps more rapidly when temperature reaches 37.8°C (100.0°F) or higher, and the buzzes are” Bi- Bi-Bi—– Bi-Bi-Bi——- Bi-Bi-Bi” -
To prolong battery life, press the On/Off Button to turn unit off after testing is complete. If no action is taken, the unit will automatically shut off after around 10 minutes.
