PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

1. Overview
   The DMT-511 Infrared Thermometer measures the body temperature based on the infrared energy emitted from the eardrum or the forehead. Users can quickly get measurement results after properly positioning the temperature probe in the ear canal or forehead. Your body temperature is generally considered normal between 97°F (36.1°C) to 99°F (37.2°C) but depends on the way your tempera- ture is measured. The following table shows the ranges that apply for the different measurement methods. The DMT-511 measures in forehead mode, ear mode, and object mode. Readings from different modes should not be directly compared. If you contact a medical professional, explain what kind of thermome- ter you used. Bear this in mind when you are using the thermormeter.| Normal body temperature
   ---|---
   Forehead temperature| 36.1°C to 37.5°C (97°F to 99.5°F)
   Ear temperature| 35.8°C to 38°C (96.4°F to 100.4°F)
   Oral temperature| 35.5°C to 37.5°C (95.9°F to 99.5°F)
   Rectal temperature| 36.6°C to 38°C (97.9°F to 100.4°F)

HOW TO USE THE THERMOMETER

1. First use
   Before using this product for the first time, the battery protection tab must be removed.
   Remove this plastic tab by gently pulling it out of the battery compartment.

2. Replacing the Batteries
   1. Release the battery cover by gently sliding it down.
   2. Remove the battery cover.
   3. Replace both AAA-batteries according to the polarity marked on the battery chamber.
   4. Replace the battery cover and make sure all of the pins of the cover are aligned with the gaps.
   5. Close the battery cover by sliding it up until you hear a click.

3. Precautions for accurate measurements
   Carefully follow these instructions to ensure accurate temperature readings:
   ● Ensure that the thermometer lens is clean.
   ● If the thermometer is transferred to a new location with different room temperature, wait at least 30 minutes before using it. This will allow the thermometer to adjust to the new conditions and prepare it to give the most accurate readings.
   ● Ensure that the ears are clean. Earwax influences the accuracy of the measurement.
   ● Utilize the thermometer in a closed room where there is no strong breeze or draft.
   ● Ear or head coverage by hair or a hat will make the ear warmer; ensure that the ear or the head has not been covered for 5 minutes prior to the measurement.
   ● Please be aware that intense emotions and strenuous physical exertion before taking a measurement can affect the accuracy of the reading.
   ● Avoid holding the thermometer in your hands any longer than necessary, since it is highly sensitive to heat. Holding the unit for more than three minutes can result in inaccurate measurements.

4. How to correctly perform an ear measurement 1. Remove the sensor cap to expose the sensor probe.
   2. For adults, pull the ear backward and upward with your free hand to straighten the ear canal (image 1).
   3. Gently insert the sensor into the ear canal.
   4. Ensure that the sensor is aimed directly toward the eardrum (image 2).
   5. If the ear canal is not straightened, inaccurate readings may result (image 3).
   6. For children between 6 and 12 months old, pull the outer ear straight backward (image 4).
   7. Press the button once to take the measurement.
   8. Abeep indicates that the measurement has been taken and the thermometer may be removed from the ear.
   9. Look at the display to read the temperature.
   10.Clean the sensor and cover it again with the sensor cap.

5. How to correctly perform a head measurement NOTE: The forehead measurement is an indicative reading. The measured forehead temperature can fluctuate up to 1.0 °F/ 0.5 °C from your actual body temperature. Please be aware of the factors that influence the accuracy as described in the section ‘Precautions for Accurate Measurements’.
   Always check if the lens is clean.
   Always make sure the user and the thermometer will have been in the same room for at least 30 minutes prior to the measurement.
   To perform a head measurement:
   1. Keep or put the sensor cap in place;
   2. Aim the sensor at the temple and start holding the button;
   3. Move the sensor across the forehead to the other temple.
