the temperature is between 59°F to 104°F (15°C to 40°C).
Caution: 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.
Caution: Head coverings that cover the forehead, perspiration, or hair may affect the
accuracy of measurements.
Caution: Avoid exposing the device to external heat sources or holding the thermome-
ter for an extended period of time as this can impact accuracy. Do not point thermome-
ter directly at known heat sources other than the patient.
6

Caution: If measuring human forehead temperature, select "body" mode; for measur-
ing objects, select "surface" mode.
Caution: Do not store or use near strong electrostatic or strong magnetic fields.
Caution: 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.
Caution: Avoid taking temperature measurements for at least 30 minutes after physical
activity, bathing, swimming, consuming food or beverages, or spending time outdoors.
Caution: If using for high-volume, rapid mass screenings, it is recommended that the

4c. Selecting a Scan Mode
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.)
5. TAKING A MEASUREMENT
1. 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:
2. If needed, press the Mode button to change between body mode and surface mode.
3. 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.
4. 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

NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects and people.
a) Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mo-
bile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with ac-
curacy. To access the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey
should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Non Contact Infrared Body Ther-
mometer is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Non Contact Infrared Body Thermometer
should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be
necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the Non Contact Infrared Body Thermometer.
b) Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, Field strength should be less than 3 V/m.
The Infrared Body Thermometer is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below.
The customer of the user of the Infrared Body Thermometer should assure that it is used in such an environment.
