7. Advice For The 1st Use
For stable and reliable results, it is essential to check the
Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer and changes
as needed, as follows:
1st step: take the temperature of a person using a
conventional thermometer; you will get 37.5˚C (99.5˚F)
for instance.
2nd step: take the temperature of the same person using
the Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer keeping
the 5 to 15cm (2in to 5.9in) distance between the
thermometer and forehead ( Take care to remove any
obstacle which could alter the measurement (hair,
perspiration …). If you get 37.5˚C (99.5˚F), the Non-
contact Body Infrared Thermometer is properly set and
ready for use.
If you get a lower temperature, 36.4˚C (97.4˚F) for
example, your difference is 1.1˚C (2.2˚F). you should
adjust the temperature on the Non-contact Body

Infrared Thermometer and add the difference, i.e.
1.1˚C(2.2˚F).
To do it, press the “MODE” button for 2 seconds, the
screen displays F1, press “MODE” button again until
you get F3. Press “UP” button in order to add the
difference (in our example, 1.1˚C – 2.2˚F).
3rd step: To check, take the temperature again using the
Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer.
8. Use
10-1. Install battery
10-2. For the first use or when inserting new batteries
wait between 10 minutes for the warm-up of the
apparatus and when inserting the new batteries.
10-3. If the device is not used for a long time, once you
turn it on again, the device will test the room
temperature first and will delay turning on for one or
two seconds.

10-4. Aim towards the forehead (see the diagram below
for the positioning), from a distance of 5cm(2in), press
the measuring key, the temperature is displayed
immediately. Making sure there is no hair,
perspiration, cosmetic or cap covered on the forehead.
10-5. when the room temperature is significant
difference, or there is perspiration on the forehead,
you can take the temperature behind the ear lobe.
Making sure there is no hair, perspiration, cosmetic or
cp covered.

9. Measuring Operation
11-1. Choosing The Temperature Unit – F1 Function
Press “MODE” button for 2 seconds, the screen displays:
F1. Select “DOWN” for degrees Celsius, “UP” for
degrees Fahrenheit.
11-2. Alarm Setup – F2 Menu
Press “MODE” touch for 2 seconds, the screen displays:
F1. Press twice “MODE” touches to get F2. Select “UP”
to increase the threshold by 0.1˚C (0.1˚F), “DOWN” to
reduce it by 0.1˚C (0.1˚F).
Note: The alarm threshold default value is 38˚C (100.4˚F).
11-3. total difference – F3 Menu
To adjust the total variation of you’re the Non-contact
Body Infrared Thermometer.
Press “MODE” button for 2 seconds, the screen displays:
F1. Press “MODE” button two times to get F3. Select
“UP” to increase the difference by 0.1˚C (0.1˚F),

“DOWN” to reduce it by 0.1˚C (0.1˚F). In the cases of
seasonal or environmental changes a verification and
adjustment should be carried out.
Note: This function is only effective Body
11-4. Buzzer ON/OFF – F4(F3) Menu
Press “MODE” button for 2 seconds, the screen displays:
F1. Press three(two) times “MODE” button to get
F4(F3).
Select “UP” to open the buzzer ( a sound icon “ “ is
displayed on the LCD screen), press “DOWN” to stop it
( the icon disappear).
11-5. Exiting The Setting Mode
Press “MODE” button until the screen turns off.
11-6. The Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer is
specially designed to take the body temperature of a
human being. For this, use the Body mode.
Measurement range for Body mode: 32 to 42.5˚C (86
to 108˚F)
You can also use the Non-contact Body Infrared
Thermometer to measure the temperature of an area
or an object, a food, a liquid or at room temperature.
For this, use the Surface mode. Measurement range
for Surface mode: 0 to 60˚C (32 to 140˚F)

Important: The area temperature differs from the internal
body temperature. To obtain the internal temperature
always use the Body mode.
Please make sure to select the Body mode for an internal
temperature reading and the Surface mode for an
external area reading (bottle, bath, room …).
11-7. Data Memory
Data memory automatically after temperature
measurements, which will display at the right corner of
LCD. Press “UP” or “DOWN” button to display the last
temperature measurement.
Under the condition of power off, press “UP” and
“DOWN” button together for two seconds, to display
the last temperature measurement. At this mode if
change the order number to 0 and press “MODE”
button, then delete all memory data.
11-8. Changing The Batteries
Display: when the LCD screen displays “ “ the battery
is used.
Operation: Open the lid and change the batteries, taking
great care with the correct positioning. A mistake with
this could cause damage to the apparatus and

compromise the guarantee of your Non-contact Body
Infrared Thermometer. Never use rechargeable
batteries. Use only batteries for single batteries.
Remove the battery from the instrument if it is not
required for extended periods of time in order to avoid
damage to the thermometer resulting from a leaking
battery.
11-9. Longevity Use
The Non-contact Body Infrared Thermometer was
conceived for an intense and professional use, it’s
longevity is guaranteed for 40000 takings.
10. Advice
The protective glass over the lens is the most
important and fragile part of the thermometer, please
take great care of it.
Do not recharge non rechargeable batteries, do not
throw in fire.
Do not expose the thermometer to sunlight or water.
11. Maintenance and cleaning
The Infrared Sensor is the most precise part, must be
protected carefully.
