Product Description
Overview
Infrared Thermometer measures the body tempera-
ture based on the infrared energy emitted from the
eardrum or the forehead. Users can quickly get
measurement results after positioning properly the
temperature probe in the ear canal or forehead.
Normal body temperature is a range. The following
tables shows that this normal range also varies by
site. Therefore, readings from different site should
not be directly compared. Tell your doctor what type
of thermometer you used to take your temperature
and on what part of the body. Also bear this in mind
if you are diagnosing yourself.

The device consists of enclosure, button, a temperat-
ure sensor, Infrared temperature-measuring element,
microcomputer controlled circuit, LCD, backlight and
a buzzer.

In the nature, for all objects whose temperature is
higher than the absolute zero (-273.15℃), for the sake
of molecule’ s thermal motion, radiate electromagnetic
wave to the surrounding ambient including the infrared
wave without a break, the relationship between the
density of radiation energy with the object’ s tempera-
ture conform to the radiation law.
The infrared thermometer’ s working principle is
based on the fourth-power law: infer objects’ radiation
temperature by measuring objects’ radiation infrared
energy. Thermopile sensor can convert the infrared
energy into thermoelectricity, and output as a detect-
ed signal after signal processing.
The infrared temperature sensor detects infrared
energy emitted by the eardrum. A built-in lens focus-
es the collected energy, which is then converted into
a temperature reading by the thermopiles and
measurement circuits.

have been in the same room for at least 30 minutes
prior to the measurement.
Take your ear temperature
Please make sure that the ear is clean, with no
earwax or obstructions.
The right ear reading may differ from the reading
taken at the left ear. Therefore, always take the
temperature in the same ear.
Note:
Children under 1 year: Pull the ear straight back.
Children aged 1 year to adult: Pull the ear up and
back.
Do not force the thermometer into the ear canal.
Otherwise, the ear canal may get injured.
When taking the temperature on an adult, gently
pull the ear up and back to make sure the ear canal
is straight, so that the temperature probe can
receive an infrared ray from the eardrum.
Be careful when taking temperature on a child,
whose ear canal is small.

release the
Measure/Mute-unmute
button in 1 second, the beep is
heard, you can now read the value.
After a measurement
Once the reading has been completed, remove the
thermometer away from the forehead/ear and
observe temperature.
After each measurement, you can enter the recall
mode and query earlier temperature readings.
Do not hold the thermometer for a long time,
because it is sensitive to the ambient temperature.
After each measurement, clean the temperature
probe with a soft cloth, and put the thermometer in
a dry and well-ventilated place.
You should wait at least 10 seconds between each
measurement.
It is dangerous to make a self-diagnosis or self-treat-
ment based on the obtained measurement results.
For such purposes, please consult a doctor.

Temperature taking tips
It is important to know each individual’ s normal
temperature when they are well. This is the only way to
accurately diagnose a fever. Record readings twice a
day (early morning and late afternoon). Take the
average of the two temperatures to calculate normal
oral equivalent temperature. Always take the tempera-
ture in the same location, since the temperature
readings may vary from different locations on the
forehead.
A child’ s normal temperature can be as high as 99.9ºF
( 37.7ºC ) or as low as 97.0ºF ( 36.1ºC ). Please note
that this unit reads 0.5ºC (0.9ºF) lower than a rectal
digital thermometer.
External factors may influence ear temperatures, includ-
ing when an individual has:
been lying on one ear or the other
had their ears covered
been recently swimming or bathing
In these cases, remove the individual from the situation
and wait 20 minutes prior to taking a temperature.
Use the untreated ear if prescription ear drops or other
ear medications have been placed in the ear canal.

been exposed to very hot or very cold temperatures

Holding the thermometer for too long in the hand
before taking a measurement can cause the device
to warm up. This means the measurement could be
incorrect.
Patients and the thermometer should stay in
steady-state room condition for at least 30 minutes.
Before placing the thermometer sensor onto the
forehead, remove dirt, hair, or sweat from the
forehead area. Wait 10 minutes after cleaning
before taking measurement.
Use an alcohol swab to carefully clean the sensor
and wait for 5 minutes before taking a measure-
ment on another patient. Wiping the forehead with
a warm or cool cloth may impact your reading. It is
advised to wait 10 minutes before taking a reading.
In the following situations it is recommended that
3-5 measurements in the same location be taken
and the highest one taken as the reading:
Newborn infants in the first 100 days.
Children under three years of age with a compro-
mised immune system and for whom the presence
or absence of fever is critical.
When the user is learning how to use the thermom-
eter for the first time until he/she has familiarized
himself/herself with the instrument and obtains
consistent readings.
Care and cleaning
Use an alcohol swab or cotton swab moistened with
70% alcohol to clean the thermometer casing and
the measuring probe. After the alcohol has complet-
ely dried out, you can take a new measurement.
