Preparing for measurement
The correct usage method is key for ensuring measuring accuracy. To avoid
incorrect
measurement, please operate according to the following tips:
- When measuring body temperature, aim at the middle of the forehead (above eyebrows) and hold the product vertically, at a distance of .:s; 1 cm, as shown in the following picture. When the “trigger” key is pressed, the measured value of temperature will be displayed on the screen.
- Before measuring, please keep the forehead free from obstructions, such as hair, sweat, cosmetics or a hat.
- When the measured person has a relatively large difference in the temperature of the measuring environment, they are required to stay in the testing environment for around 5 minutes. After their temperature is consistent with the ambient temperature, the measuring can be conducted again.
- For fever patients, a cold compress on the forehead and other cooling measures will result in lower temperature measurements.
- The ambient temperature around the measured person should be stable. The test cannot be conducted in places with larger airflows, including fans and air outlets of air conditioning.
- Place the infrared thermometer in the operating environment for 20 minutes prior to use, so as to adjust to the relative ambient temperature.
- Do not use the infrared thermometer in strong sunshine.
- It is recommended to measure three times, so as to display the highest group of data.
- When measuring a person’s forehead temperature, please select the “body temperature” mode;
Starting measurement
- Aim at the measured target and press the “trigger” key. Refer to the display screen for the results. Since the infrared thermometer will conduct a self-inspection when powering on, this picture will display for around two seconds.
- After this self-inspection is completed, a “beep” will be heard (if the sound is turned on), which indicates that the product is on and the measurement has finished. Meanwhile, the display screen will indicate the results from the measured target.
Caution
- If the temperature exceeds the set value of a low fever, the LCD backlight will be yellow.
- If the temperature exceeds the set value of a high fever, the LCD backlight will be red and a crying face will be displayed, accompanied with three quick “beep” sounds.
- After continuously measuring five times, please wait for at least 20 seconds to ensure measurement accuracy
Switching measurement patterns
When powered on, a short press of the “MODE” key switches between the body
temperature and surface temperature modes.
The body temperature mode can be used to measure human body temperatures
Viewing memory values
When powered on, a short press of the up key or down key will allow
for memory queries.
To look over earlier measured values, quickly press the down key.
To look over recently measured values, quickly press the up key.
Note:
-
The higher the memory serial number, the earlier the measured value is. The lower the
memory serial number, the more recent the measured value is. -
If there is a memory value, it will display the memorized value directly, or it will display “—“, as shown in the following diagram.
-
The infrared thermometer can store 34 sets of recently measured values at most. The values beyond 34 sets are covered automatically in chronological order.
Deleting memory values
When powered off, press and hold the “MODE” key, while pressing the “trigger”
key. This will display “CLR” and the product will shut down after two seconds.
All the memory values will be deleted
Unit setup
Unit setup F1
Turn the power on. Press and hold the “MODE” key until “F1” appears on the
screen. Quickly press the down key to switch between temperature units
°Cj°F.

Battery replacement
The infrared thermometer uses 2 AAA (7) batteries. When the infrared
thermometer prompts a low battery warning, please refer to the method
specified in section 3.1 to replace
batteries
Caution
- When opening the battery cover, pay special attention to the polarities of the batteries. Wrong placement may cause damage to the product.
- If the product has not been used, or will not be used, for a long period, please remove the batteries, so as to avoid possible damages caused by liquid battery leakage.
- If the product displays signs of battery leakage or mildew, do not use it.
- Do not keep batteries close to a fire or place them in a fire, which can cause batteries to explode.
- Do not store batteries in high temperatures and humidity.
- To avoid short-circuiting, please do not put batteries and metal objects, including coins or keys, in the same place as products that may cause short-circuiting.
Maintenance and storage
- The infrared probe accuracy will be affected if not carefully protected. Please do not use fingers or other objects to contact or press it.
- Use a 75% alcohol cotton wet cloth to clean the infrared thermometer shell. Do not let the liquid enter the infrared thermometer. Never clean it with corrosive detergents, diluents or gasoline, and do not immerse the product into water or other liquids.
- Carefully protect the LCD (liquid crystal display) surface.
- Keep the infrared thermometer in a dry place and avoid dust, pollution or direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
What may cause “Lo” to appear?
Possible reasons include:
- The measuring distance is too far. This may measure the temperature of the surrounding environment rather than a person. The designed measuring distance of this infrared thermometer is s1cm.
- The measuring position has deviated. If measuring body temperature, the infrared thermometer should be aimed at the middle of the forehead (above eyebrows) and kept vertical.
- “Lo” may appear if there is the hair covering the forehead of the measured person, or if the measurement is taken under air conditioning or strong winds. Measuring should be conducted again after the measured person stays still for 5-10 minutes in a relatively static environment
- There are rare cases of people whose forehead temperature is lower than average. Their test result may be “Lo”. A comparison can be conducted by measuring the surface temperature of another person’s forehead after adjusting the infrared thermometer to the mode of “surface temperature” for measurement. The body temperature of this person can be judged as normal. The main attention should be paid to the high-temperature prompt or the “Hi” display for fever.
- Is the infrared thermometer dangerous? Does it emit radiation?
The infrared thermometer collects radiant infrared of the human body to calculate the body temperature of the human body. It belongs to the passive reception of infrared radiation energy. The product is not used by directly contacting the human body. Therefore, it cannot bring cross infection from different human bodies. Additionally, the infrared thermometer manufactured by this company does not emit radiation, so it cannot damage the human body.
Common sense of body temperature
The human body is a very complex integrated biological system and body
temperature is a very important vital sign. In general, we test our health
conditions by measuring the temperatures of the forehead, cochlea, anus, oral
cavity, and armpit. Different temperatures may be measured at different parts.
The specific difference reference is shown in the following Table:
Measured part | Normal temperature |
---|---|
Temperature of cochlea | 35.8~38.0″C |
Temperature of forehead | 34.7~37.8°C |
Temperatureof oral cavity | 35.5~37.5°C |
Temperature of armpit | 34.7~37.3°C |
Temperature of anus | 36.6~38.0″C |
Age
| Normal temperature
---|---
0-2years old| 36.4~38.0″C
3-10yearsold| 36.1~37.8°(
11-65 years old| 35.9~37.6°(
65years old| 35.8~37.5 ·c
The temperature of the human body changes during the day. Meanwhile, it is
also affected by other factors such as age, gender, skin color and skin
thickness. The specific reference for
‘the changes of body temperature over time is shown in the above Table ll The
body temperature of females is different from that of males. In general, the
body temperature of females is higher than that of males by about 0.3’C.
During ovulation, the average female body temperature is increased by
0.3-0.5°C. Therefore, the temperature can also
be used as a tool to determine whether a female is in her ovulation period,
which can be beneficial to family planning.
It is a common practice to use the infrared thermometer to measure the basic
body temperature of females every day for at least one month. Then, a curve
chart of basic body temperatures can be drawn. The ovulation period can be
seen clearly from the chart.
