Infrared Forehead Thermometer Model DET-306
Introduction
The DET-306 infrared forehead thermometer is specifica1ly designed for safe
use on the forehead. The Infrared Forehead Thermometer is a device capable
ofmeasuring people’s body temperature by detecting the intensity of infrared
light emitted from the forehead. It converts the measured heat into a
temperature reading displayed on the LCD. Infrared Thermometer is intended for
the intermittent measurement ofhuman body temperature by people ofall ages.
When properly used, it will quickly assess your temperature in an accurate
manner. “” Please read allinstructionscarefullyand thoroughly \..i,/1 before
using this product.
Warning:
-
There is no gender or age limitation for using infrared forehead thermometer. This thermometer can be reused by many people.
-

-
Do not allow children to take their temperatures unsupervised, some parts are small enough to be swallowed.
-
Never immerse this device in water or other liquids(not waterproof).
-
Do not modify this equipment without authorization of manufacturer.
-
Do not expose the thermometer to temperature extremes (below -25’C/-13″F or over 55-C/131 “F) nor excessive humidity (>95%RH).
-

Basic Functions
Forehead Thermometer Advantages
Infrared Forehead Thermometer measures core body temperature, which is the temperature of a body’s vital organs. (See Figure 1) This thermometer is designed to measure the temperature oftheskin surface over the temporal artery, a major artery of the head. The temporal artery is connected to the heart via the carotid artery, directly leading from the aorta, the main trunk ofthe arterial system. It offers constant blood flow. Therefore, body temperature changes are reflected sooner in the forehead than they are in other parts of the body such as oral, rectal and underarm.
Real Time Clock Setting
When using thermometer for the first time, please set the parameters ofthe thermometer. With the thermometer off, press and hold BUTTONto enter into setting mode for 3 seconds.

5. Set the month Press and realase the START BUTTON to advance one month until the correct month appears. After the month is set, press BUTTON, the Date figure is flashing automatically.
\
6. Set the date
Press and release the STARTBUTTON to advance one day until the correct month
appears. After the day is set, press BUTTON to exit the setting mode.
Temperature Taking Hints
To ensure that the reading always reflects the body temperature accurately, you need to take account ofthe following factors which may affect an accurate reading.
-
lt is important to know each individual’s normal temperature when they are well. This is the only way to accurately diagnose a fever. To determine normal temperature, take multiple readings when healthy. Re-measure with a standard digital thermometer for confirmation.
-
Users must be inside for 30 minutes before taking a measurement.
Note: Users and the thermometer should be in the same ambient
temperature for at least 10 minutes before taking a reading. -
Users should not drink, eat, orbe physically active such as bathing, showering, shampooing and hair drying before/while taking the measurement. Remove hat and hair and wait 10 minutes before taking a reading.
-
Oils or cosmetics on the forehead may give a lower temperature reading than the actual one. Remove dirt from the forehead before taking a measurement. Wait at least 10 minutes after washing the forehead area before taking a reading.
Temperature Taking Hints
-
Holding a hand on the forehead for any length oftime will affect the temperature reading.
-
Do not take temperature over scar tissue, open sores or abrasions.
-
Do not use the thermometer on a perspiring or sweating forehead, as this may affect the reading
-
Don’t take a measurement while or immediately after nursing a baby.
-
Do not use this thermometer outdoors.
-
Do not take temperatures with this thermometer near places that are very hot, such as fireplaces and stoves.
-
The probe window ofthe thermometer is the most delicate part ofthe device. Do not touch the probe window. The accuracy of the reading may be affected ifthe probe window is damaged or dirty.
-
If the thermometer is stored in a significantly different environment than testing location, place it in the testing location for approximately 30 minutes prior to use.
-
It is not intended for use in the oxygen rich environment or presence of flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.
Illustration For Use
To measure forehead temperature
-
Press the BUTTON, The display is activated to show all segments. After self-checking Figure 2 appears on the display screen with beeps, so you can start a new measurement.
-
Aim the thermometer at the center of the forehead with a distance of 2 to 3 cm(See figure 3) and then press the START BUTTON.
_ Note: Do not remove the thermometer from the forehead before _hearing the final beep. A waiting period of 3 seconds between testing is recommended to ensure complete accuracy. -
Read the temperature on the display.
-
Press the C!) BUTTONto turn off.
Illustration For Use
► After measurement:
-
Power off: Device will automatically shut off ifleft idle for more than 1 minute to extend battery life.
-
Clean the probe after each use to ensure an accurate reading and avoid cross contamination. (See the section of Care and Cleaning for details.)
► BackLight:
In Forehead mode:
-
The display will be lighted GREEN for 3 seconds with a happy face when the unit is ready for measurement and a measurement is completed with a reading less than 37 .3 “C(99. l “F).
-
The display will be lighted YELLOW for 3 seconds with a happy face when a measurement is completed with a reading less than 37.S’C(I00.0’F).
