General Warnings

A warning statement in this manual identifies a condition or practice which, if not corrected or discontinued immediately, could lead to patient injury, illness, or death.
The thermometer is safe for patient and clinicians when used in accordance with the instructions and with the warning and caution statements in this manual. Before using the thermometer, familiarize all operating personnel with the general safety instructions provided in this manual.

WARNING: The thermometer is designed for the intermittent measurement of the human body’s temperature and can be used upon people of all ages. The following recommendations must be carefully observed during the product’s use. Any activities that are inconsistent with or do not take into account these recommendations, could result in personal injury or could affect the accuracy of the thermometer.
WARNING: Stop using the device if malfunctions appear or if it operates abnormally.
WARNING: Components may be harmful if swallowed. Keep out of reach of unsupervised children.
WARNING: Some medications may cause a rise in skin temperature which can consequently lead to incorrect measurements.
WARNING: Only use the thermometer indoors. Do not use this device close to strong electromagnetic fields, such as mobile phones.
CAUTION: Proper measurement distance between 1 cm and 2 cm from the patient’s forehead is essential to the accuracy of the temperature measurement determined.
CAUTION: Unauthorized modifications to the device are not permitted. Do not modify the product in any way without the manufacturer’s prior authorization.
CAUTION: In order to avoid incorrect measurements, make sure that the thermometer’s infrared sensor lens is clean and intact prior to use. Avoid touching the infrared sensor lens directly with your fingers.
CAUTION: Do not expose the thermometer to extreme temperatures or humidity levels. Do not expose to direct sunlight.
CAUTION: The thermometer is NOT waterproof.
CAUTION: Avoid dropping the device.
CAUTION: Do not autoclave or clean with chemical solvents. Follow only the cleaning procedures described in this manual.
CAUTION: Avoid taking temperature measurements for at least 30 minutes after physical activity, bathing, swimming, consuming food or beverages, or spending time outdoors.
CAUTION: Avoid pointing the infrared sensor at any heat source other than a patient. This might affect patient measurement.
CAUTION: If possible, measurements should always be taken by pointing the infrared sensor at the same area of the forehead. Temperature measurement at different locations on the temples or on opposite sides of the head can vary considerably.
CAUTION: Holding the thermometer in your hands for too long or exposing the device to external head sources could result in distorted temperature readings.
For this reason, the body temperature reading could result as being higher or lower than the actual value.
CAUTION: Dispose of the device and battery in accordance with locally applicable regulations.
CAUTION: The device is not intended for field-based emergency medical use.
CAUTION: For maximal performance of the device, we recommend a calibration check every two years.

Changing the Measurement Scale

Press and release the multifunction button to turn on.
While self-check screen is displayed, press and hold the multifunction button. When °C or °F mode has changed, release the button.
Thermometer will switch to measurement mode in about two seconds.

How to Use

NOTE: Charge thermometer for two hours before first use.

Clean the unit before using.
Make sure the site is clean and dry prior to taking measurement.
Press and release the multifunction button to turn on. You will hear a short beep and the unit will perform a self check.
A second beep will indicate that the unit is ready to use.
Aim probe at the measuring site at a distance of 1-2 cm.
Press the multifunction button to take measurement.
When measurement is complete, the unit will beep several times (number of beeps depends on the reading, see Figure 1), and a smiley face icon will flash.
When the face stops flashing, you can begin another measurement.
The unit will power off automatically in about 10 seconds.
Temperature (°F)| Beeps| Backlight
---|---|---
T≤98.9| 2| Green
99≤T≤99.4| 2| Yellow
T≥99.5| 8| Red

Memory Function

The unit retains the last nine readings.
To recall previous readings:

While the unit is off, press and hold the multifunction button for about three seconds, until the unit enters memory mode.
Release the button. The reading number will appear first, then the corresponding measurement value. These numbers will toggle three times.
Press and release the multifunction button again to recall each earlier reading.
The unit will switch to measurement mode about three seconds after the last button push.

To delete all readings in memory:

While in memory mode, press and hold the multifunction button forabout three seconds, until the “del” code appears on the display.
Release the button.
Press and release the multifunction button once more to confirm deletion.
All readings will be deleted and the unit will power off.

Cleaning and Disinfecting

The thermometer can be cleaned, and an intermediate level of disinfection can be achieved using the following method.

CAUTION: Never use abrasive cleaning agents, thinners, or benzene for cleaning and never immerse the instrument in water or other cleaning liquids.
CAUTION: Never insert a sharp object into the sensor lens area or any other open surface on the thermometer.
CAUTION: Do not use unapproved cleaning or disinfection agents. Use of these agents may cause damage to components.
CAUTION: Do not use chemicals other than isopropyl or ethyl alcohol on the sensor lens.

Cleaning the sensor lens

Slightly moisten a cotton swab or cloth with isopropyl or ethyl alcohol and gently wipe the surface of the sensor lens using a side-to-side (not circular) motion. Avoid touching the sensor lens except when cleaning is required.

Cleaning the thermometer
