Introduction
Thank you for choosing the NON-contact Digital Infrared Forehead
Thermometer from Ginger Hill Creations, Forehead Thermometer for short
in these instructions
With this unique technology, the forehead thermometer can give you
accurate results with non-contact, stable measurement and without the
interference from ambient temperature. The product will self-test every time
it starts up to make sure of normal operation and accuracy.
The forehead thermometer can be used to measure body temperature,
which is suitable for people of all ages. It can be used to measure the
temperature of milk and many other items as well. In our examples we will
use milk –but feel free to adapt it as needed.
Please read the instructions carefully before using the product, and put it in
a safe and secure place for reference.

1.The advantages of a Forehead Thermometer
Multiple uses (measurement of body temperature and milk temperature)
Forehead Thermometer provides measurement of body temperature, which
is from 32℃to 42.2℃(from 89.6℉to 107.9℉) , and milk temperature, which
is from 0℃to 100.0℃（from 32.0℉to 212.0℉）.
The product consists of ABS common plastics, TPR plastics, temperature
sensor, Infrared temperature measuring element, microcomputer controlled
circuit and LCD.
Convenient of use
●Special ergonomic design for easy use
●No interference for your normal life. Ability to take measurements during
your children’s sleep
●Comfortable compared with rectal thermometers for children, and more
rapid and simple compared with mouth thermometers and more flexible
compared with contact forehead thermometer.
Read multiple groups of memory data
The user can read 20 groups of memory data by choosing memory mode,
which is effective for tracing the change of temperature over time.
Safe and hygienic
●No-contact measurement won’t bring about the accumulation of bacteria,
and it doesn’t need to be cleaned very often.
●There is no danger of breaking the glass or swallowing mercury
●It is totally safe for children to use.
Fever warning
When the readings exceed 37.5℃/99.5℉, the product shall warn patients
that he/she may have a fever by 7 rapid, short rings and red backlight.(For
normal body temperature, the signal is long ring and green backlight)
Extensive clinical data of hospital use has been tested.
In cooperation with partner hospitals the unit has been subjected to precise
clinical verification, with the support of extensive clinical data and
professional medical experts.

4.How to measure with the forehead
temperature
The device measures the infrared energy emitted
from the forehead, which will focus through the
lens and convert it to a temperature value by the
thermopile and measuring circuit. It is
recommended that you press button (2) and scan
the forehead from one side to another at a distance from ½” to 2”, then
release the button with the maximum value displayed. Fixed point
measurement may result in an inaccurate
diagnosis.
5.How to measure the milk temperature
The device measures the infrared energy emitted
from a feeding bottle, and it will display the milk
temperature by transition calculation and emission
rate compensation. Please use the press button (3)
for startup when measuring.
In order to avoid any inaccuracy:
●Please make sure that there is no dirt in on the temperature sensor
●Please make sure that there is no intense emotion and movement before
measuring. There should be no water on the forehead.
●If the device is transferred from one area to another which has different
ambient temperature, it is suggested to allow it acclimate for more about 30
minutes.
●Do not hold the device for long time as it is highly sensitive to heat.
the device has undergone clinical testing, it is safe and accurate when used
in accordance with the operation manual.
