Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the
FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
ac¬cordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment o and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dierent from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference and
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interfer¬ence that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement:
1. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
2. This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This
equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator radiation
source and your body.
The thermometer comes with two 1.5V AAA alkaline batteries. Replace them when “ ” appears. Please
follow the steps for battery replacement.
1. Remove the battery cover.
2. Place the new batteries in the battery compartment and press it in until the batteries are secured.
3. Reattach the battery cover.

ABOUT NORMAL BODY TEMPERATURE & FEVER
Body temperature can vary from person to person. It also varies on different part of the body and time of
day. The following table shows the statistics of normal ranges from different body parts. Please keep in
mind that temperatures measured from different parts, even at the same time, should not be directly
compared.
Fever indicates that the body temperature is higher than normal. This symptom may be caused by
infection, overdressing or immunization. Some people may not experience fever even when they are ill.
These include, but are not limited to, infants younger than 3 months old, persons with compromised
immune systems, persons taking antibiotics, steroids or antipyretics (aspirin, ibuprofen, acetaminophen),
or persons with certain chronic illnesses. Please consult your physician when you feel ill even if you do
not have a fever.
