Calibration Instructions

For stable and reliable results, The thermometer provides a user-correction function,the operation of the method is as follows:

• 1st step: take the temperature of a person using a conventional thermometer; you will get 37.5°C (99.5°F) for instance.
• 2 step: take the temperature of the same person using the Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer keeping the 5 to 15 cm (2 in to 5.9 in) distance between the thermometer and the forehead (Take care to remove any obstacle which could alter the measurement (hair, perspiration…). If you get 37.5°C (99.5°F), the Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer is properly set and ready for use.

If you get a lower temperature, 36.4°C (97.4°F) for example, your difference is 1.1°C (2.2°F). You should adjust the temperature on the Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer and add the difference, i.e. 1.1°C (2.2°F).
To do it, press the “MODE” button for 2 seconds, the screen displays Fl, press “MODE” button again until you get F3. Press “UP” button in order to add the difference (in our example, 1.1°C — 2.2°F). 3rd step: To check, take the temperature again using the Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer.

Use

1. Install battery

2. For the first use or when inserting new batteries wait between 10 minutes for the warm-up of the apparatus and when inserting the new batteries.

3. If the device is not used for a long time, once you turn it on again, the device will test the room temperature first and will delay turning on for one or two seconds.

4. Aim towards the forehead (see the diagram below for the positioning), from a distance of 5cm(2in), press the measuring key, the temperature is displayed immediately. Making sure there is no hair, perspiration, cosmetic or cap covered on the forehead.

5. When the room temperature is significant difference, or there is perspiration on the forehead, You can take the temperature behind the ear lobe. Making sure there is no hair, perspiration, cosmetic or cap covered.

Measuring Operation

1. Choosing The Temperature Unit – F1
   Function Press “MODE” button for 2 seconds, the screen displays: F1. Select “DOWN” for degrees Celsius, “UP” for degrees Fahrenheit.

5. Exiting The Setting Mode
   Press “MODE” button until the screen turns off.

6. The Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer is specially designed to take the body temperature of a human being. For this, use the Body mode. Measurement range for Body mode: 32 to 42.5°C (86 to 108°F)
   You can also use the Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer to measure the temperature of an area or an object, a food, a liquid or a room temperature. For this, use the Surface mode. Measurement range for Surface mode: 0 to 60°C (32 to 140°F)
   Important: The area temperature differs from the internal body temperature. To obtain the internal temperature always use the Body mode.
   Please make sure to select the Body mode for an internal temperature reading and the Surface mode for an external area reading (bottle, bath, room…).

7. Data Memory Data memory automatically after temperature measurements, which will display at the right corner of LCD. Press “UP” or “DOWN” button to display the last temperature measurement. Under the condition of power off, press “UP” and “DOWN” button together for two seconds, to display the last temperature measurement. At this mode if change the order number to 0 and press “MODE” button, then delete all memory data.

8. Changing The Batteries Display: when the LCD screen displays ” “, the battery is used. Operation: Open the lid and change the batteries, taking great care with the correct positioning. A mistake with this could cause damage to the apparatus and compromise the guarantee of your Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer. Never use rechargeable batteries. Use only batteries for single usage. Remove the battery from the instrument if it is not required for extended periods of time in order to avoid damage to the thermometer resulting from a leaking battery.

9. Longevity Use
   The Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer was conceived for an intense and professional use, its longevity is guaranteed for 40000 takings.

Advice

• The protective glass over the lens is the most important and fragile part of the thermometer, please take great care of it.
• Do not recharge non rechargeable batteries, do not throw in fire.
• Do not expose the thermometer to sunlight or water.

Maintenance and Cleaning

• The Infrared Sensor is the most precise part, must be protected carefully.
• Clean the device with a cotton bud lightly moistened with 70% alcohol.
• Do not clean the device with corrosive detergent.
• Keep the device away from water or other liquid.
• Store the device in a dry environment, and keep it away from dust and direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

If you happen to have one of the following problems while using your the non- contact forehead IR thermometer please refer to this breakdown service guide to help resolve the problem. If the problem persists please contact our customer service.

The screen displays the body temperature inferior to 32°C (89.6°F) If you’re on Surface mode the 32°C(89.6°F) temperature displayed is showing the external temperature that your body releases.

The screen displays the message “HI”

When using the Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer the message HI can show on the screen. The analysis is above the measurement range selected, either superior to 42.5°C (108°F) in Body mode or superior to 60°C (140°F) in Surface mode.

The screen displays the message “LO”

When using the Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer the message Lo can show on the screen.
The temperature analyzed is under the measuring range selected, either less than 32°C (90°F) in Body mode or less than 0°C (32°F) in Surface mode.

This message displays in various cases-please find below a list of the main cases.

Advice

---|---

Temperature reading hampered
by hair, perspiration…

| Make sure that there is no
obstruction prior to taking a
temperature.
Temperature hampered by an air
flux.|

Make sure there is no air flux as
this could interfere with the infrared
system.

The measuring distance is too
far.

| Please respect the measuring
distance (between 5 to 15cm
– 2 to 5.9 in).
From high/low temperature
condition to room temperature|

Waiting for 10 minutes before
taking the body temperature
