Coburn 1030-331 User manual

Please read the instructions carefully before
using the thermometer for the first time. This
product is intended for the measurement of
animal body temperature.
Operating Instructions
Before using, disinfect the probe. Press the ON/OFF button
next to the display; a short beep will sound, indicating that
the thermometer is operational. At the same time, the ther-
mometer runs a self-check test, during which all the digital
segments appear on the LCD. When the letters “Lo” and a
flashing “°C” or “°F” display, the thermometer is now ready
for use. If the ambient temperature is below 32°C or 89.6°F,
then “Lo °C” or “Lo °F” will appear on the LCD, and if it is
more than 42.9°C or 109.2°F, then “HI °C” or “HI °F” will
appear on the LCD. During the reading, the current
temperature is displayed continuously, and the “°C” or “°F”
symbol flashes. The reading is complete when a constant
temperature value is reached. The temperature value is
considered constant when the temperature rises less than
0.1°C within 8 seconds. When the constant temperature
value is reached, a beep will sound ten times, and the “°C”
or “°F” symbol will stop flashing. The highest measured
temperature appears on the screen. Note that this
thermometer is a maximum thermometer, i.e., the displayed
temperature can increase slightly if measurement continues
after the beep. After the temperature is displayed, the
thermometer will shut off after 10 minutes.
Memory function
After turning on the thermometer, the last measured
temperature will display on the LCD for approximately 2
seconds after the self-check. The reading is overwritten
after the LCD shows “37.0°C”, i.e., the thermometer is
ready for measurement.
Method of measuring temperature
Rectal temperature is the most accurate method from a
medical point of view because it comes closest to the core
body temperature. The thermometer tip is inserted carefully
into the rectum to a maximum depth of 2 cm. The usual
measuring time is approximately 9 to 11 seconds.
How to change the measuring scale:
To switch the display between C and F, turn the unit off. Once
off, press and hold the ON/OFF button for 2 seconds, the
display will show another scale.
Cleaning and disinfecting
The best way to clean the thermometer tip is by applying a
disinfectant (i.e. 70% medical alcohol) with a damp cloth.
Disinfect thermometer before each use. This thermometer
can be immersed in liquid or lukewarm water for thorough
cleaning and disinfecting.
Safety precautions
• Do not allow the device to come into contact with hot
water.
• Do not expose to high temperatures or direct sunlight.
• Do not drop the thermometer. It is neither shock-proof nor
impact-resistant.
• Do not modify this device without the authorization of the
manufacturer.
• Do not bend or open the device (except the battery
compartment).
• Do not clean with thinners, petrol or benzene
— only clean with water or disinfectant.
• Do not immerse the waterproof thermometers under water
15cm for longer than 30 minutes.
• The thermometer contains small parts (battery, battery
compartment) that can be swallowed by children. For this
reason, do not leave the thermometer unattended in the
hands of children.
• Avoid bending the Non-Flexible thermometer tip. For the
Flexible thermometer, avoid bending the tip by more than 45
degrees.
• If the ambient temperature is over 35°C or 95°F, dip the
thermometer tip in cold water for approximately 5 to 10
seconds before taking a temperature.
• Do not use near strong electromagnetic fields.
