FridaBaby 61-067 Digital Thermometer

FEVER OR FINE IN A FLASH

• High temps are no joke. Is your munchkin just a bit flushed or is this a full-blown fever fest? You need answers RIGHT? NOW. And we’re here in the trenches with you. That’s where our 3-in-1 True Temp Thermometer comes in, with rectal, oral, and armpit reading functions. It gives you both a 10-second quick read and a 30-second final read with a single insertion.
• Taking a temp rectally is the only way to go with babies up to one year and is recommended by the AAP as the best method until age three. Middle of the night fever fears? No problem. The built-in LED light lets you see where you’re going and what you’re doing. (Important for rectal readings…) Worried about going too deep? The insertion stopper’s got you covered. Can’t remember what your little one’s temp was an hour ago? Memory Mode to the rescue!
• We’ve thought of it all so that you don’t have to.

Directions

For Rectal Use: We want the best for you and your family. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that for at least the first year of the baby’s life (though up to three is best), temp checks should only be done rectally. That’s why our thermometer defaults to Rectal (“rct”).

• Confirm that the thermometer is still in Rectal (“rct”) mode. (See below to CHANGE MODE.)
• Before inserting the thermometer, lubricate the silver tip. We suggest coconut oil or other natural lubricants. Press against the small bump on the thermometer probe to turn on the LED light for easy visibility.
• Then, lift the baby’s legs and gently insert the thermometer tip up to the insertion stopper.
• Do not insert past the point where you feel resistance (usually from the baby’s lower cheeks).

For Oral or Underarm Use:

• Confirm that the thermometer is in the correct mode: Oral (“orl”) or Underarm (“udr”). (See below to CHANGE MODE.)
• Press the white probe button on the side and flip the tip into oral/underarm mode.
• Oral (recommended only for ages four and up): Place the thermometer tip under the tongue.
• Underarm: Place the thermometer probe with tip in the armpit and keep the arm firmly pressed against the side.

Note: To ensure an accurate temperature, always wait for the 30-second reading in underarm mode (the 10-second reading may not be reliable due to environmental factors, like air temperature).

1. Press the Power Button to turn the thermometer on.

2. Your last temperature reading will show on the LCD screen.

3. You’ll see the selected reading mode on the screen (“rct,” “orl,” “udr”).

4. You’ll see “—” and either F˚ or C˚ on the top right of the screen. (See below to CHANGE UNIT.)

5. When you are in the right mode and unit settings, you’re ready to go.

   • Taking baby’s temperature with a 10 or 30-Second reading:

   • 10-Second read: Quick check Insert the thermometer into the appropriate body part based on the mode setting (“rct,” “orl,” “udr”). Screen will show a loading “wheel” while registering the temperature.
     The thermometer will beep and flash a temperature reading after 10 seconds.

   • 30-Second read: Final temperature check

   • Keep the thermometer inserted. The screen will continue to flash for another 20 seconds.

   • Once 30 seconds have passed, the reading is complete. The thermometer will beep and display the final temperature reading.

6. Wait a minimum of one minute before attempting a new measurement.

7. Press the Power Button to turn off. This can be done at any point during a reading.

8. Remember to sanitize the thermometer before and after all readings, especially if you are using it both rectally and orally.

Change unit: To change from Fahrenheit (°F) to Celsius (°C), turn it on, when the last temp reading flashes, hold the button for 3 seconds. Press button once to scroll to next mode. Once on preferred mode, press button for 3 seconds to confirm selection.

Change mode: The thermometer defaults to rectal (“rct”) mode.

To change from current setting:

1. Turn it on and wait for the screen to light up.
2. Hold the button for 3 seconds when the mode (“rct,” “orl,” “udr”) flashes.
3. Press the button once to scroll to next mode. Once on preferred mode, wait 3 seconds for the thermometer to register the selected mode OR press the button for 3seconds to confirm selection and proceed with the reading.

In order to achieve the most accurate results, always use the thermometer in the mode that corresponds with the method you will use: Rectal (“rct”), Oral (“orl”), or Underarm (“udr”).

Memory mode: To enter, press and hold the button for 3 seconds when the device is off. Once in memory mode, press the button once to scroll to the next memory reading. Press and hold the button for three seconds to turn off.

Call your child’s doctor right away if your child has a fever and:

• Is younger than 3 months (12 weeks) and has a temperature of 100.4°F (38.0°C) or higher.
• If, at any age, the fever rises above 104°F (40°C) repeatedly.

Battery replacement

1. Replace battery when “ ” appears in the lower right corner of LCD display.
2. Pull Battery door off and open Battery chamber.
3. Discard battery lawfully. Replace with new 3.0V DC button type CR2032, or equivalent.
4. Slide battery chamber back into place and attach battery door.

Cleaning and disinfection

Wipe the thermometer with a soft clean cloth. For stubborn stains, wipe the thermometer with a cloth that has been dampened with water or a neutral detergent and wipe thoroughly. Finish by wiping with a soft dry cloth. For disinfection, 75% Ethanol or Isopropyl alcohol can be used. Observe the following to prevent damage to the thermometer.

• Do not use benzene, thinner, gasoline or other strong solvents to clean the thermometer.
• Do not attempt to disinfect the sensing section (tip) of the thermometer by immersing in alcohol or in hot water (water over 122°F / 50°C).
• Do not use ultrasonic washing to clean the thermometer.

Troubleshooting / Error codes

Performance may be degraded should one or more of the following occur:

• Operation outside stated temperature and humidity range.
• Storage outside stated temperature and humidity range.
• Mechanical shock.
• Patient temperature is below ambient temperature.

Do not dispose of used batteries in the trash. Consult your local recycling center for the proper way to dispose of batteries in your area. Keep used batteries away fromchildren, pets and excessive heat.

Error: Problem/Cause: Solution

above range; wait several minutes and attempt new measurement.
– – –| The measured temperature is below 89.6°F (32°C).| Results are below range; wait one minute and attempt new measurement.
Err| The system is not functioning properly.| Attempt new measurement; if error persists, contact Customer Care at [email protected].
[ ]| Dead battery: Battery icon is flashing, can’t be measurable.| Check battery and replace with a new battery if necessary.

Normal body temperature / Fever indicator

• Body temperature can vary from 97°F and 100.0°F and still be considered normal. The medically accepted ‘normal’ body temperature is 98.6°F Body temperature is commonly lower in the upon waking than at any point during the rest of an individual’s waking hours.
• Temperature readings will vary based on the body location point of the reading. Oral temperature readings between 97°F (36.1°C) and 100°F (37.7°C) are considered normal. A rectal temperature reading is generally 1°F (0.5°C) higher; while an underarm, or axillary, temperature will be 1°F (0.5°C) lower.
• A fever is defined as a body temperature that is elevated above the normal for that person. It is important to determine what is normal for an individual before determining if a fever is present. Tracking an individual’s temperature on a consistent basis, at the same body site and at the same time every day when the person is well or healthy will help determine an individual’s normal temperature.
