Operation

General notes:
The ambient temperature should be stable. Keep device away from the larger flow fans, di-rect sunlight, air-conditioning vents and so on. Wait at least 30 seconds between each mea-surement. If for some reason the forehead temperature measurement cannot be realized, try to align behind the ears (see below).
Setting the measuring mode
When the device is running, pressing the MODE-button 6 to switch between „body“ mode and „surface“ mode. „Body“ mode is used for measuring human body temperature, the „Sur-face mode“ is used to measure the surface temperature (the factory default is „body“ mode).

Perform fever measurement

1. Turn on the thermometer by pressing the ON-button 3. The thermometer will perform a self-test with all segments displayed for 2 seconds.

2. Immediately align the thermometer with the middle of the forehead to measure body temperature (between the eyebrows) and keep a distance of 1 – 5 cm. Alternatively you may use an alignment behind the ears. After measurement, a sound will be emitted and the temperature will be displayed.
   If you hear three beeps, the measurement was not successful. Press the ON- button 3 again and repeat the measurement.

3. Depending on the measured body temperature the backlight LCD display will change the colors: Green means normal temperature (35.5°C-
   37.3°C / 95.9°F-99.1°F), yellow means slight fever (37.4°C-38.0°C / 99.3°F-100.4°F) and red means high fever (38.1°C-43.0°C / 100.6°F-109.4°F).

Perform surface measurement

1. Turn on the thermometer by pressing the ON-button 3. The thermometer will perform a self-test with all segments displayed for 2 seconds.
2. Aim the sensor at the center of the object at a distance of min. 5 to max. 15 cm. If it is covered with water, dust or dirt, remove this first to optimize the measurement result.
3. In surface mode the backlight is always green.

Recalling and erasing memory data
The last temperature taken before the thermometer powers off is automatically stored in me-mory (max. 50 results). With the unit switched off, press the MEMO-button 5 to call up the values stored in memory. If not all 50 memory locations are occupied, „—°C“ or „—°F“ may appear. If you press and hold the MEMO-button 5 for about 2 seconds during the memory display, „CLR“ appears in the display and the stored data is deleted. In addition, an acoustic signal sounds.

Parameter settings
The device allows some individual settings (F1 to F3): Press and hold the SET- button 4 when the instrument is switched on to modify these settings.

• F1: Measurement unit. °C or °F.
• F2: Fever alarm temperature
• F3: Sound on/off

Press the MODE-button 6 or the MEMO-button 5 to adjust the value and the SET- button 4 to confirm and proceed to the next setting (after F3 the setting mode is completed).

Restoring the factory settings
With the device switched on, press and hold the MODE-button 6 until „rst“ appears on the display. 2 seconds later the factory settings for parameters F1 to F3 are restored (F1=°C; F2=38.1°C; F3=on).

Care and Storage

• The IR sensor 7 is the most delicate part of the medisana infrared body thermometer TM A79. Protect it from dirt and damage. Clean the sensor with a cotton bud dipped in warm water or 70% isopropyl alcohol.
• Use a clean, soft cloth to clean the surface of the unit and the display. Do not use solvents or immerse the product in water or other liquids.
• Always keep the thermometer within the storage temperature range (- 20°C – +55°C or – 4°F – +131°F) and humidity range (≤ 93%, non-condensing).
• It is recommended to store the thermometer in a dry, dust-free place. Do not expose the thermometer to direct sunlight, high temperature/humidity or extreme environments, as this may affect its function.
