• Do not touch the probe lens.
• Do not disassemble the thermometer.
• Basic safety precautions should always be observed, especially when the thermometer is used on or near children and disabled persons.
• This thermometer is not intended to be a substitution for consultation with your physician.
• The skin/surface scan temperature serves as a reference only. It cannot be a judgment on fever.
• Temperature of left and right ear may differ. Always measure using same ear.
• Only use the probe cover for infrared FORA IR20 ear thermometer.
• For proper hygiene, do not share probe cover. Damaged probe cover may result in error display.
• If you experience any serious incident that occurred in relation to the use of this product, please report it to the manufacturer and the competent authority of medical devices in your country.
• A serious incident means any incident that directly or indirectly led, might have led, or might lead to any of the following:
  (a) the death of a patient, user, or other people,
  (b) the temporary or permanent serious deterioration of a patient’s, user’s or other person’s state of health,
  (c) a serious public health threat.

Restrictions of Use

This thermometer is clinically proven to produce accurate temperature measurements. However, please be advised if you have the following situations:
The accuracy cannot be ensured for a person who has deformity in the ear such that the thermometer probe can not be properly inserted into the ear canal.

• The accuracy cannot be ensured when blood or drainage is found in the ear canal.
• Take temperature from the other ear if ear drops or medications have been placed in an ear.
• For a person who wears ear plug or hearing aid, remove the device and wait for 15 minutes before taking temperature.

NOTE
Never try to clean inside the ears. You may accidentally damage the eardrum or its surrounding tissues. Remove excess earwax only when you can reach it with a clean cloth. Consult a physician if you suspect the presence of excess earwax.

Intended use

FORA IR21 ear/forehead thermometer is intended for the intermittent measurement and monitoring of human body temperature from ear canal or skin/surface scan. The device is intended for use by people of all ages in the home.
FORA IR20 ear thermometer is intended for the intermittent measurement and monitoring of human body temperature from ear canal. The device is intended for use by people of all ages in the home.

How does it work
The thermometer measures the infrared heat generated by the eardrum and its surrounding tissue, or by the surface of the skin over the temporal artery. The thermometer then converts it into a temperature value shown on LCD.

Replacing the Battery

The thermometer comes with two 1.5V AAA alkaline batteries. Replace it when “ ” appears. Please follow the steps to replace new batteries.
Step 1
Remove the battery cover.
Step 2
Place the new battery in the battery compartment and press it in until the battery is firmly secured.

Step 3
Reattach the battery cover.

NOTE

• Although the thermometer works when “ ” appears, we still recommend that you change the battery to obtain an accurate result.

• The battery should be kept out of reach of children. If they are swallowed, promptly see a doctor for help.

About Normal Body Temperature & Fever

Body temperature can vary from one individual/person to next. It also varies by location on the body and different time of the day. Below shows the statistical normal ranges from different sites. Please keep in mind that temperatures measured from different sites, even at the same time, should not be directly compared.
Fever indicates that the body temperature is higher than normal. This symptom may be potentially caused by infection, overdressing or immunization. Some people may not experience fever even when they are ill. These include, but are not limited to, infants younger than 3 months old, persons with compromised immune systems, persons taking antibiotics, steroids or antipyretics (aspirin, ibuprofen, acetaminophen), or persons with certain chronic illnesses. Please consult your physician when you feel ill even if you do not have fever.
