rise in skin temperature which can
consequently lead to incorrect
measurements..
8. Taking a measurement after skin has
been exposed to an extreme condition
such as direct exposure to sunlight,
replace/ heater or air conditioner ow,
may lead to incorrect readings.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION
AND INTENDED USE
The non-contact infrared thermometer
is an electronic device designed to
absorb the infrared from human body to
detect your temperature. It is intended to
measure the human body temperature
for infants and adults without contact to
human body. It can be used by consumers
in household environment and doctor in
clinic as reference.

ABOUT BODY
TEMPERATURE
A person’s normal body temperature
can range from 35.5°C to 37.8°F
(95.9°Cto 100.0°F) throughout the day.
We recommend taking your temperature
at different times during the day when
you are NOT sick. This will give you
a preliminary reference to know what
your normal temperature is and how it
fluctuated during a normal day. Then,
when you feel sick or discomfort, knowing
this will provide an index for a reliable
diagnosis of a fever.

This mode is intended to measure the
temperature of forehead.
1. When switching between the four
modes/settings, simply stop pressing
the button when the screen show .
2. The device is now ready to measure
forehead temperature.
Refer to USE section on page 12 under
Measurement Consideration. Carefully
read and follow these instructions.
SETTING
Object temperature mode
This mode is intended to measure the
temperature of object surface. This mode
is not intended for determining human
body temperature.
1. When switching between four modes/
settings, simply stop pressing the button
when the screen shows .
2. The device is now ready to measure the
surface of object temperature.
Beeper On/Off
The default for beeper is ON. You may
