What are normal temperature
values?
Human body temperature varies from
person to person. One person's body
temperatures are different from time to
time. Therefore, it is very important to
know your normal body temperature
range. Because of this, we
recommend that you measure yourself
when healthy to establish reference
temperatures which will make you feel
more confident of the measured

Why IR ear thermometer?
The tympanic membrane (eardrum),
and the hypothalamus, the part of the
brain which controls body temperature,
share a common blood supply, so
tympanic readings rise and fall rapidly
with core temperature (deep-body
temperature). This makes the ear
temperatures one of the best indicators
of internal body (core) temperature.
How to use the IR ear thermometer
correctly?
1.It is useful to try this thermometer on
yourself first to become familiar with
its operations.
2.Please do not take the temperature
immediately after waking up.
Sleeping on the ear may cause the
temperature to be higher than normal.
3.It is common for the readings to be
slightly different between the right
and the left ear. Therefore, we
suggest using the same ear to obtain
temperature.
4.To make the ear canal straight for
measurement:
For Children under 12 months:
Make the ear canal straight by pulling
the ear back.
For Children over 12 months
and Adults:
Make the ear canal straight by
pulling the ear back and up.
5. This IR ear thermometer
automatically converts measured ear
temperature reading to oral
temperature.
Precaution
1.Please consult your physician to
verify your body temperature.
2.DO NOT scrape or scratch the lens
as it will hamper the effectiveness of
the device.
3.The device is intended for
consumer-use only.

Why / How to use IR forehead
thermometer correctly?
1.It is useful to try this thermometer on
yourself first to be familiar with it.
2.The thermometer should be in the
room where measurement will be
taken 20-30 minutes prior to
measurement. The person whose
temperature is being taken should be
in the same room at least 20 minutes
before the measurement.
3.Keep the forehead clean from sweat,
make-up, etc.
4.Avoid taking measurement for 30
minutes after physical exercise,
bathing or eating.
5.Body temperature, like blood
pressure, varies from person to
person, and during the day, it may
range from 35.5°C to 37.8°C (95.9°F
to 100.0°F). The forehead
temperature is converted by the
thermometer to the commonly used
oral temperature. For some people it
may show some difference from their
normal oral temperature. It is
recommended to learn and
recognize the forehead temperature
while healthy. For accurate results,
measure the same area on the
forehead each time a temperature is
Taken.

will hear a beep.)
3. While it is measuring, the display
will show as (Figure3).
4. A "beep-beep"sound is heard when

(Figure4)
5. If the temperature reading is above
38°C, eight consecutive beeps will
be heard to indicate fever alarm.
6. Wait the hourglass disappear, the
display will show the ready for
measurement (Figure2), now you
can start a new measurement by
press On/Off button again.

How to Operate the Thermometer
Operational Hints:
1. Between each measurement, please
allow a 5-second interval in order to
obtain the most accurate result.
2. Ensure that the probe lens is clean
before each measurement. Dirty
probe lens may cause inaccurate
measurement.
3. Because the thermometer is a very
sensitive device, it must be at room
temperature (approx. 16~40°C) for
at least 30 minutes before using to
avoid any incorrect measurements.
Warning : Performance of the
device may be degraded if the
device is operated or stored outside
the stated temperature and humidity
range or if the patient's temperature
is below ambient (room)
temperature.
