Advantages of Temporal Artery (ta) Temperature
The temporal artery runs across the forehead, just below the skin. It is connected to
the heart by the carotid artery, which is connected to the aorta. Given the location
of this major artery, measuring temperature at the forehead renders a reliable result
when used for screening purposes. Taking temperature at the forehead may be
preferable when compared to other methods because of the efficiency, speed and
comfort.
Operating Principle
All objects, solid, liquid or gas, emit energy by radiation. The intensity of this energy
depends on the temperature of the object. The Non-Contact Forehead Infrared
Thermometer works by detecting the radiation energy being emitted by the arterial
blood flow in the forehead, which is in close proximity to the heart and runs just
below the skin surface. When the radiation sensor of the thermometer is activated,
the forehead temperature measurement is taken by detecting the infrared heat
generated by the arterial blood flow.
Temperature Modes and Functions

5
F1: Choosing the Temperature Measurement Scale
• To choose the measurement scale, press the measurement trigger to go
to Home Screen.
• Press and hold the MODE button until
F1
is displayed on the LCD

• To activate the audible alarm, press . The LCD screen will display
ON
.
Press again to turn alarm
OFF
. The default alarm temperature is 38°C
(100.4°F).
F4: Instructions for Calibration
• To calibrate the Non-Contact Infrared Forehead Thermometer, press the
measurement trigger to go to Home Screen.
• Next, take the temperature of an individual using a CLINICAL
THERMOMETER; the result will be 37.5°C (99.5°F) for example.
• Take the temperature of the same individual using The Non-Contact Infrared
Forehead Thermometer. Maintaining a distance of 3cm to 5cm (1.2in to
2in), aim the device at the forehead. Press the measurement trigger to take
Press the measurement trigger to power on the device. The LCD screen
will display “----°C” or “---°F. This Home Screen must be displayed before
programming or taking temperature measurement. (The device will enter
sleep mode after 30 seconds. Press the measurement trigger to “wake up”
the device.)
Setting the Mode
• To set the mode, press the measurement trigger to go to Home Screen.
• Press the MODE button. The LCD screen will display Body. This is the
default setting. If the device will be used to measure body temperature,
leave it on Body mode.
• The device also measures ambient (room) and surface temperature. To
switch the mode to Room, press the MODE button twice. Press the
MODE button three (3) times for the Surface mode.

Considerations for Individual Being Screened:
1. Ensure individual does not participate in rigorous activity prior to the temperature
measurement.
2. Remove hair, perspiration, make-up or clothing from forehead.
3. The following physiological variations in temperature must be considered when
evaluating the temperature results:
• Temperature increases by 0.5°C ( 1°F) between 6:00am and 3:00pm
• A woman’s body temperature is approximately 0.2°C (0.4°F) higher than a
man’s body temperature.
• A woman’s body temperature varies in accordance with the ovarian cycle. It
rises by 0.5°C (1°F) in the second half of the cycle and during the early stages
of pregnancy.
• When sitting, the body temperature is approximately 0.3°C to 0.4°C ( 0.6°F
to 0.72°F) lower.
• The temperature of the human body varies throughout the day. It can also
be influenced by numerous external factors such as age, sex, type and
thickness of skin.
Helpful Tips for Reliable Results
Environmental Operating Conditions:
• Avoid extreme room temperature (too hot or cold).
• Avoid air flux (i.e. fan, heater, air conditioning).
• Whenever there is a significant change in the ambient temperature of the
screening room, allow device to acclimate for 10 to 15 minutes before using.
the temperature. Be sure to remove any obstacle which could alter the
measurement, such as hair, perspiration, etc.
• If the result is the same as the CLINICAL THERMOMETER, The Non-Contact
Forehead Infrared Thermometer is properly set and ready to use.
• If the result is NOT the same as the CLINICAL THERMOMETER, adjust
the temperature on The Non-Contact Infrared Forehead Thermometer, by
subtracting or adding degrees as appropriate.
• To add or subtract degrees, press the MODE button for 2 seconds. Until the
LCD screen displays
F1
. Press the MEM button until
F4
displays on the LCD
screen. Press the MODE button until the appropriate offset value is reached.
The offset value range is -3° to 3°C (-5.4°F to 5.4°F). Save the offset value by
pressing the MEM button until the Home Screen is displayed.
• To verify the calibration is complete, re-take the temperature of the same
individual using the Non-Contact Infrared Forehead Thermometer.
• Note: Whenever a clinical thermometer and the Non-Contact Forehead
Infrared Thermometer produce different results, or if there is a substantial
change in environmental temperature, repeat the calibration steps.

• To take the body temperature of an individual, press the measurement
trigger to go to Home Screen.
• From no more than 3cm to 5cm (1.2in to 2in), aim the device at the
middle of the forehead of the individual being screened. Press the
measurement trigger to take the temperature.
• The temperature will be displayed in one second. (See the diagram
below for the device positioning).
• When there is perspiration on the forehead, temperature may also
be taken behind the ear lobe. Ensure there is no hair, perspiration,
cosmetics or clothing covering the area.
• Allow 3 to 5 seconds between temperature measurements.
• If there is no activity for 30 seconds, the device will automatically shut
off. “Wake up” the device, by pressing the measurement trigger.
