warnings and precautions

• Only use this thermometer once you have read and understood the instruction for use.
• Only use this thermometer for the specific purpose described in the instruction manual. Any misuse will void the warranty.
• This thermometer may be used for professional purposes or for personal home use.
• Using this thermometer is no substitute for consulting a doctor. Do not self-diagnose or self-medicate on the basis of the measurements without consulting your doctor. In particular, do not start taking any new medication or change the type and/ or dosage of any existing medication without prior approval.
• Specially, do not take any new medication or change the type and/or dosage of any existing medication without consulting your doctor and obtaining your doctor’s approval.
• This thermometer must be operated by adults, and be placed out of the reach of infants.
• Ensure that children do not use this device unsupervised; some parts are small enough to be a choking hazard or be swallowed.
• If this thermometer is stored in a location that is cooler or warmer than where it is being used, please put it in operation place for at least 30 minutes before taking the measurement.
• After physical activity, a bath or spending time outdoors, wait approx. 30 minutes before you take a measurement on your forehead.
• To ensure an accurate measurement, this thermometer must only be used indoors when the ambient temperature range is between 50’F (10°C) and 104’F (40’C).
• Before and after each use, the thermometer should be cleaned according to the requirement of this manual to avoid possible bacterial infections.
• Do not expose this thermometer to electric shocks.
• Do not expose this thermometer to extreme temperature conditions of greater than 131 ‘F (55’C) or less than -4’F (-20’C).
• Do not use this thermometer in relative humidity higher than 85%.
• Do not put this product in the place with direct sunlight, high temperature, high humidity, excessive dust, or the place where it may contact with corrosive gas or liquid, and do not use this product in the above environment.
• Do not drop this thermometer.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE GLASS OF THE INFRARED SENSOR WITH YOUR FINGERS AS IT IS EXTREMELY FRAGILE AND COULD CAUSE INJURY.
• Do not use this thermometer if it is damaged.
• Do not open up this thermometer. It contains small parts which might be swallowed by children.
• Never immerse the device in water or other cleaning liquids, and do not let any liquid enters the interior of this product.
• If an error occurs or if the device is damaged. DO NOT attempt to repair this device yourself, as this will void the warranty. Contact your dealer and only have repairs carried out by authorized service partners.
• Remove the batteries if you do not wish to use the unit for an extended period of time. Otherwise there is a danger that the batteries may leak.
• Keep the thermometer away from electromagnetic fields produced by objects such as microwave ovens, arc welders or induction heaters.

Operating principle

All objects, solid, liquid or gas, emit energy by radiation. The intensity of this energy depends on the temperature of the object. The JXB-311 infrared thermometer is therefore able to measure the temperature of a person by the energy the person emits. This measurement can be taken thanks to anexternal temperature probe on the device which permanently analyses and registers the ambient temperature. Therefore, as soon as the operator holds the thermometer near the body and activates the radiation sensor, the measurement is taken instantly by detection of the infrared heat generated by the arterial blood flow. Body heat can therefore be measured without any interference from the heat of the surrounding environment.

How to use your Berrcom Non-contact Infrared Thermometer

1. lnstall two batteries according to manual provided in Section VII.
2. For the first lime use after installing batteries, wait 10-15 minutes for the device to warm up and adjust to the room temperature.
3. Press the On/Scan button “ place 0- 1.2in (0-3 cm) away from the forehead(as Fig.1 ), aim the infrared sensor toward the forehead. Make sure the measurement mode is body temperature mode “ , press the thermometer’s On/Scan button button, and the temperature will be displayed instantly.
4.  Before taking an individual’s temperature, make sure any hair, dirt or dust is removed from the forehead and the forehead is dry. Wait 10 minutes after such removal prior to measuring temperature.

For reliable results:

• Do NOT attempt to take an individual’s temperature by aiming the device at a body part other than the forehead (i.e. arms, legs, torso, etc.) .
• Do NOT move the thermometer before the final result is displayed.
• Do NOT take an individual’s temperature near any drafts (i.e. wind, air conditioner, fans).
• Do NOT take an individual’s temperature shortly after he or she participated in vigorous physical activity, bathed, took medicine, ate or drank, or had a cold or warm compress on his or her forehead.
• Do NOT take an individual’s temperature when there has been a significant change in ambient conditions. Allow the device to adjust to significant changes in the ambient temperature due to a change in environment for at least 30 minutes before taking the measurement.
• Wait at least 3 to 5 seconds between measurements.
• We recommend that you take three measurements on the forehead, and If the results of three measurements are different, use the one with the highest value.

Basic instrument

Additional usage
JXB-311 can also be used to measure the temperature of a baby bottle or bath (by using the Surface Temp Mode), or room temperature (by using the Room Mode).

In this case.the temperature is above the measurement range selected, either above 109.4’F (43.0’C) in Body Mode.

THE SCREEN DISPLAYS THE MESSAGE LO
When using the JXB-311 Thermometer, the message “LO” can show on the screen.
In this case, the temperature analyzed is under the measuring range selected, either less than 89.6’F (32’C) in Body Mode.

This message displays for various reasons. Please find below a list of the main issues:

obstruction or dampness prior to taking temperature.
Temperature hampered by an air draft or dramatic change in ambient temperature.| Make sure there is no air blowing in the area of use; this could affect the infrared reading.
Temperature readings are too close together, and the thermometer did not have time to reboot.| Pause for 3-5 seconds minimum between readings; a 15 seconds pause is recommended.
The measuring distance is too far.| Take measurements at the recommended distance (app. 0cm-3cm).
