Instruction Booklet
For your safety and continued enjoyment of this product, always read the
instruction booklet carefully before using.
Thank you for purchasing the Travel Smart® Infrared Forehead and Ear
Combination Thermometer (TSIR1). This product features the latest technology
and has been tested according to international medical device standards. It
has been cleared by the FDA for home and professional use. The thermometer’s
unique technology enables stable and accurate measurements every time. This
product is designed specifically to monitor body temperature for use at home
or in clinical settings.
Please read the instruction manual carefully and keep it in a safe place for
reference.
INDICATIONS FOR USE
The TSIR1 is a non-sterile, reusable, clinical electronic thermometer using an infrared sensor to detect human body temperature on people of all ages for home and professional use.
WARNINGS & PRECAUTIONS
Never use the thermometer for purposes other than those it has been intended
for.
The use of this thermometer is not intended as a substitute for a consultation
with your healthcare provider.
If you are concerned about your health, please see your physician. An elevated
temperature may signal a serious illness, especially in older individuals,
people with compromised immune systems, and infants.
In order to properly diagnose an elevated temperature, it is important to know
an individual’s normal body temperature. We suggest taking several readings
when the person is healthy, to set a baseline for their normal temperature.
Infrared thermometers cannot be used to diagnose COVID-19 or other illnesses.
Infrared thermometers can identify individuals with higher than average body
temperatures compared to a sample population. Only a medical professional can
determine whether an individual is experiencing an abnormal medical condition
or illness.
Note that an abnormal medical condition may be present even when an individual
does not show a fever. When in doubt, consult your physician.
Follow general safety guidelines when using this thermometer on children. Do
not allow children to take their temperature unattended. This is not a toy.
Keep sensor cover (cap) away from children. Do not use this thermometer on
children less than 3 months of age. Do not use this thermometer if you have
auricle inflammation or otitis media, as it may aggravate the condition.
Do not immerse this thermometer in water or other liquids. Follow the
instructions in the “Cleaning and Maintenance” section to clean and disinfect
the thermometer.
The device is made of precision parts. Do not dismantle, re-assemble or modify
the thermometer in any way. Do not drop the thermometer and protect it from
strong impacts.
Do not use this thermometer if the sensor is broken.
If the device is broken, do not attempt to repair it yourself. Contact the
customer service center.
Do not use this thermometer in the presence of flammable anesthetic mixtures
with air or with oxygen or nitrous oxide.
CAUTION
Keep the device away from direct sunlight. Store in a dry and dust-free
environment, ideally within a storage temperature range of 4˚F to 131˚F (-20˚C
to 55˚C).
Before taking temperature readings, please make sure the sensor surface is
clean. If there is visible dust or dirt, you may clean the surface with a
cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol before using the device. After cleaning
the sensor head with alcohol, it is recommended to leave the device for a few
minutes until the alcohol evaporates and the sensor head returns to its normal
temperature. We suggest cleaning the thermometer sensor after each use, to
ensure measurement accuracy and to avoid potential cross-contamination.
To make sure the measurement result is accurate, wait at least 30 seconds
after each measurement before you measure again.
Because babies are slower at adapting to temperature changes in the
environment if drastic temperature changes are observed, it is best to wait a
few minutes in the same environment until the baby’s body temperature becomes
stable, before taking any temperature readings to ensure the most accurate
results.
It is recommended to take 3 temperature readings and reference the highest
recorded measurement for babies between 3 months to 3 years of age, or for
first-time users of the device.
Do not add a protective sleeve to the sensor, as that may affect the accuracy
of the measurement. The device requires no calibration. Remove batteries if
the equipment is not likely to be used for some time.
The user must check that the equipment functions safely and see that it is in
proper working condition before use.
Do not operate the product out of operating conditions out of the operating
temperature range, as it may cause measurement value anomalies or malfunction.
HOW THE THERMOMETER WORKS
This thermometer detects infrared energy radiated
from the skin and tissue of the forehead and in the ear canal. This
thermometer has been tested and proven to be safe and accurate when used as
directed in this instruction manual. This device has settings that alert you
to a temperature above normal.
Normal temperature varies from person to person, by age, and even by time of
day and activity. It is best to establish a “normal” temperature range for
each user of the thermometer while the person is feeling well.
We suggest taking readings in the morning and in the late afternoon, and
averaging them to get a “normal” temperature. A record that temperature so you
can use it to compare against temperatures measured for the person when they
are not feeling well. Note that normal body temperatures tend to decrease with
age.
The Travel Smart® Thermometer features a temperature alert setting: It will
vibrate to alert you to a lowgrade and also to a high-grade fever.
Generally, temperatures in the range of 96.4˚F – 99.4˚F (35.8˚C – 37.4˚C) are
considered normal; temperatures between 99.5˚F – 101.3˚F (37.5˚C – 38.5˚C) are
considered a light fever and temperatures over 101.3˚F (38.5˚C) are
considered a high-grade fever.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR THERMOMETER
SETTING UP YOUR THERMOMETER
Push the power button on the thermometer to turn on the device. If the
thermometer display does not light up, open the battery door on the bottom of
the handle and make sure the batteries are correctly installed with respect to
polarity. Close the battery door and press the button again. The display will
light up.
Selecting temperature units
With the thermometer turned off, press and hold the power button for 5
seconds. The thermometer will display — ˚C. Then press the power button again
to switch to ˚F.
BEFORE TAKING A TEMPERATURE READING
Clean the skin of the forehead and make sure the area is free of hair, sweat,
lotion or makeup. Ear wax residue may lead to inaccurate, low-temperature
readings, so it is recommended to clean the ear prior to using the thermometer
in the ear model.
Wait at least 30 minutes after strenuous exercise to take your temperature.
Take the temperature in a room that does not have significant changes in
airflow, such as a room with large fans and air conditioners. Do not take your
temperature near heat sources, such as radiators or heat registers.
The body’s temperature adapts to the environment.
Allow at least 20 minutes to adjust to room temperature if a person is
entering a room that is significantly warmer or cooler than the room they were
in previously.
MEASURING FOREHEAD TEMPERATURE
The thermometer is in forehead mode by default when the cap is on. Simply press the power button to turn on the device. After about 2 seconds, the dot matrix screen displays “FOR” and the previously chosen unit of temperature (˚F or ˚C).
To take the temperature, gently touch the user’s forehead with the front of
the cap: Aim at the center of the forehead, between and slightly above the
eyebrows.
Press the power button. The thermometer will vibrate gently to indicate that
the measurement is complete, and the temperature will display on the
thermometer. The device will automatically shut down after 30 seconds.
MEASURING EAR TEMPERATURE
Remove the gray cap from the sensor head by gently pulling on it and keep it
in a safe place. Removing the cap activates the ear measurement mode. Press
the power button to turn on the device. After a few seconds, the dot matrix
screen displays “EAR” and the previously chosen temperature unit (˚F or ˚C).
Gently fit the tip of the thermometer into the ear canal and press the power
button. The thermometer indicates with a soft vibration that the temperature
reading is complete and the temperature is displayed.
The device will automatically shut down after 30 seconds.
FEVER ALERTS
When the measured temperature exceeds a preset level, the thermometer will vibrate to alert you to a fever.
-
Low-level fever
When a low-level fever is detected (99.0˚F-99.3˚F or 37.2˚C-37.4˚C), the thermometer will vibrate twice, with the display flashing at 1-second intervals. -
High-level fever
When a higher-grade fever is detected (99.5˚F/37.5˚C or above), the device will vibrate three times, with the display flashing at half-second intervals.
STORED READING RECALL
Turn the device on. With the thermometer in standby mode (display shows “FOR”
or “EAR”), press and hold the power button for about 4 seconds. The display
will show FOR/EAR. Press the power button to switch from forehead memory mode
to ear memory mode. The recorded readings for the selected mode will display.
The device can record 12 readings in the forehead mode, and 12 readings in the
ear mode.
AUTOMATIC SHUTDOWN
This thermometer is equipped with a battery-saving automatic shutdown feature:
After 30 seconds without any user action, the thermometer will power down. You
can turn it back on by simply pushing the power button on the handle.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
This product uses 2 AAA alkaline batteries (included). When the display shows “LOL,” it indicates that the batteries are low and need to be replaced. To replace the batteries, push the battery cover on the bottom of the handle in the direction of the arrow. Take out the old batteries and install the new batteries, making sure the polarity is correct (note the “+” and “-” signs). Close the battery door and properly dispose of the batteries. If the thermometer is not used for more than 3 months, remove the batteries to prevent potential damage from battery fluid.
BATTERY SAFETY
- This product requires 2 AAA batteries.
- Since batteries are sensitive to high temperatures, keep them in a cool, dry place when storing them.
- Battery contacts need to be clean, both on the battery and in the appliance, before installation.
- Batteries should be removed from the appliance when not being used for long periods of time (months).
- Never recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
- Be careful to install (+) and (-) to the correct plus and minus on the device.
- Replace all old batteries at one time. Do not mix old and new.
- Remove discharged batteries immediately to avoid leakage.
- Never put batteries into a fire.
- Switch off devices after use.
- Keep batteries away from children, especially the batteries that are small enough to ingest.
- If a battery is ingested, seek immediate medical help.
- Never open, crush, puncture or disassemble batteries.
- Dispose of batteries according to any state and local regulations.
- Do not dispose of rechargeable batteries as solid waste.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Check whether the battery level is sufficient before each use. If the battery
is low (display shows “LOL”) change the batteries and then take the
temperature.
Before each use, check the equipment casing for damage. If it is damaged, do
not use. The sensor head is the most important part of the thermometer, and
the front part (sensor mirror) is fragile. Be careful not to damage the sensor
when you clean it.
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after each use. If the thermometer is dirty, you
may wipe the unit with a damp cloth moistened with water or neutral detergent,
and then wipe it with a dry cloth. Avoid water entering the body of the
thermometer, so that the internal electronic components do not get damaged. If
you are concerned about contamination, you may clean the thermometer with 75%
alcohol before and after use. Use only a small amount of alcohol:
Excessive amounts of alcohol can damage the electronics of the device. Do not
use volatile oil, paint thinner, and other chemical solvents to wipe the
product.
