INTRODUCTION / INTENDED USE

Intended use
The Adtemp Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer is a clinical-grade device intended for the intermittent measurement of human body temperature in people of all ages. It can also be used to measure the temperature of objects.
Please note, this manual refers to the person whose temperature is being measured as the “patient.” “Clinician” refers to the person taking the measurement.

GENERAL WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

Warning and caution statements may appear on the thermometer, its packaging, shipping container, or in this instruction manual.
This thermometer is safe for patients and clinicians when used in accordance with the instructions and warning and caution statements included in this manual. Before using the thermometer, users must familiarize themselves with the general safety information included below. Specific warnings and cautions are also found throughout this manual.

This product is designed to measure human body temperature at the forehead or the surface temperature of objects. Do not use it for any other purpose. Warning: Failure to review and adhere to the recommendations in this manual could result in personal injury or affect the accuracy of the thermometer itself.
The infrared sensor can absorb heat from the measurement site, which may impact reading accuracy. For best results, please allow about five seconds between measurements.
Keep this thermometer and its batteries out of the reach of children.
Do not allow children to take their temperature with this thermometer unattended.
Dispose of this thermometer and its batteries in accordance with local or national regulations for electronic waste.
When replacing the batteries, always replace both batteries and ensure that they are of the type and specification indicated in this manual. Observe the correct polarity when inserting new batteries.
Do not use rechargeable batteries. The use of rechargeable batteries may compromise the performance of this device.
Remove the batteries when the device will not be used for an extended period of time.
If battery leakage occurs, fully clean the battery compartment using personal protective equipment prior to re-use.
Observe proper measurement distance, starting between 5 cm to 15 cm (2” to 6”) from the patient’s forehead. This is essential for measurement accuracy.
Do not modify or disassemble this device without prior authorization.
Ensure the thermometer lens is clean and intact prior to use and after measurement is complete.
Avoid touching the lens directly with your fingers.
Do not expose the thermometer to extreme temperatures or humidity levels. Do not expose to direct sunlight.
The thermometer is not waterproof; do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
Avoid dropping the device or exposing it to heavy shock or vibration.
Do not autoclave. Follow only the cleaning procedures described in this manual.
Stop using this device if it operates erratically or if the display malfunctions.
Contact ADC or your local ADC representative for any assistance with this device. Refer to the warranty section of this manual for contact details.
When the ambient temperature of the thermometer changes too much, such as moving the thermometer from one place of lower temperature to another place of higher temperature, allow the thermometer to remain in a room for 30 minutes where the temperature is between 59°F to 104°F (15°C to 40°C).
Wherever possible, take measurements at the same area of the forehead. Temperatures measured at different measurement sites (e.g., on the temples, on opposite sides of the head) can vary considerably.
Head coverings that cover the forehead, perspiration, or hair may affect the accuracy of measurements.
Avoid exposing the device to external heat sources or holding the thermometer for an extended period of time as this can impact accuracy. Do not point the thermometer directly at known heat sources other than the patient.
If measuring human forehead temperature, select “body” mode; for measuring objects, select “surface” mode.
Do not store or use near strong electrostatic or strong magnetic fields.
This product is intended for use as a screening tool in the home, in small commercial or industrial settings (e.g., offices, factories, warehouses, restaurants, retails shops, movie theaters) and in medical settings.
Avoid taking temperature measurements for at least 30 minutes after physical activity, bathing, swimming, consuming food or beverages, or spending time outdoors.
If using for high-volume, rapid mass screenings, it is recommended that the unit be allowed to rest for up to 30 seconds

With the power on, press the Mode button to switch between body mode and surface mode. Body mode is used for measuring human body temperature. Surface mode is used to measure an object’s surface temperature.
(The factory default is “body” mode.)

TAKING A MEASUREMENT

Turn on the thermometer by pressing the On/Measure button. The thermometer will perform a self-test with all segments displayed for two seconds, followed by three consecutive beeps. When ready to measure the display will look like this:
If needed, press the Mode button to change between body mode and surface mode.
Position the thermometer about 2″ to 6″ (5 cm to 15 cm) from the center of the patient’s forehead with the sensor aimed between the eyebrows.
Press and release the On/Measure button to start measurement. The unit will beep once when the measurement is complete. The backlight color will display green, yellow, or red depending upon the reading obtained.
Green: ≤ 99.2°F (37.3°C)
Yellow: 99.3°F to 100.5°F (37.4°C – 38.0°C)
Red: ≥ 100.6°F (38.1°C)

Note:

For best results, please allow about five seconds between measurements. If using for high-volume, rapid mass screenings, please allow a 30-second rest every five to ten measurements. These precautions will prevent the infrared sensor from absorbing heat from the measurement site, which can affect accuracy.
If the patient’s skin is covered with hair, perspiration, or dirt, clean the area and wait 10 minutes before taking a measurement.
Ensure that the thermometer is held firmly during measurement and that the patient does not move until the measurement is complete. Patient movement can impact the measurement.
