Note:
Oils or cosmetics on the forehead may give a lower temperature
reading than the actual one.
●
Remove dirt from the forehead before
taking a measurement. Wait at least 10 minutes after washing the
forehead area before taking a reading.
Check before each use that the lens is intact. If it is damaged,
contact your retailer or the service address.
Bear in mind that the thermometer needs to have been in the room
in which the measurement is taken for at least 30 minutes before
use.

Before each measurement, make sure that the device is in the
appropriate mode for the measurement that you wish to take.

Before measurement:
To measure forehead temperature:
Figure 1
1. Install the forehead cap.
2. Press the BUTTON to switch on the thermometer and the
display is activated to show all segments.
3.
4. Place the probe with the forehead cap fitted on the temple.
5. Press the START BUTTON to start measurement.
6. Move the thermometer smoothly over the forehead to the other
temple and back.
7. The measured value appears on the display and the end of the
measuring is signalled by a short beep.
8. The thermometer will shut off automatically after 60 seconds
of inactivity. To prolong battery life, press the BUTTON to
turn the unit off.
After self-checking, Figure 1 appears on the display screen with
beeps, so you can start a new measurement.
How to switch between ear and forehead mode:
● When the device is on, Press and hold the S BUTTON to switch
between ear mode and forehead mode.
●
● Remove hat and hair and wait 10 minutes before taking a reading.
Do not use the thermometer on a perspiring or sweating forehead,
as this may affect the reading.
The temperature of a healthy person is affected by various factors:
the person’s individual metabolism, their age(body temperature is
higher in babies and toddlers and decreases with age. Greater
temperature fluctuations occur faster and more often in children,
e.g. due to growth spurts), their clothing, the ambient temperature,
the time of day(body temperature is lower in the morning and
increases throughout the day towards evening), the preceding
physical and, to a lesser extent, mental activity.
It is suggested that users develop the habit of daily measurement,
and use this product to establish a private normal temperature
range for themselves and their families as a reference for
measurement.

Some people produce different readings in their left and right ear.
In order to record temperature changes, always measure a person’s
temperature in the same ear.
As ear wax can affect the measurement, you should clean the ear
before measuring if necessary.
1. Remove the forehead cap.
2. Press the BUTTON to switch on the thermometer and the
display is activated to show all segments.

4. Make sure that the sensor tip and the ear canal are clean. As
the ear canal is slightly curved, you have to pull the ear slightly
up and backwards before inserting the sensor tip.(See Figure 3)
When using the thermometer on infants under age 1, pull the
ear up making sure the sensor faces the eardrum.(See Figure 4)
When using the thermometer on individuals over the age of 1,
pull the ear back making sure the sensor faces the eardrum.

To ensure that the reading always reflects the body temperature
accurately, you need to take account of the following factors which
may affect an accurate reading.
1. It is important to know each individual's normal temperature
when they are well. This is the only way to accurately diagnose
a fever. To determine normal temperature, take multiple readings
when healthy. Re-measure with a standard digital thermometer
for confirmation.
2. The probe window of the thermometer is the most delicate part
of the device. Do not touch the probe window. The accuracy of
the reading may be affected if the probe window is damaged or
dirty.
.
Holding a hand on the forehead for any length of time will affect
the temperature reading.

bathing, showering, shampooing and hair drying before/while
taking the measurement. In these cases, wait 20 minutes prior to
taking a temperature.

Users should not drink, eat, or be physically active such as
5. Do not take temperature over scar tissue, open sores or abrasions.
6. Don't take a measurement while or immediately after nursing a
baby.
7. Do not use this thermometer outdoors.
8. Do not take temperatures with this thermometer near places that
are very hot, such as fireplaces and stoves.

Care And Cleaning
1. The probe window must be kept clean, dry, and undamaged at all
times to ensure accurate readings. The accuracy of temperature
readings can be affected by damage to the probe window, or the
presence of dirt and ear wax on the probe window.
2. Fingerprints, earwax, dust and other soiling compounds reduce
transparency of the window and result in lower temperature
readings.
3. The probe window is the most delicate part of the thermometer.
To safely clean the window, gently wipe its surface with a cotton
swab slightly moistened with isopropyl alcohol and immediately
wipe dry with a clean cotton swab. After cleaning, allow at least
5 minutes drying time before taking temperatures.
Note: Do not use any chemical other than isopropyl alcohol to
clean the probe window.
4. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the thermometer display and
exterior.
5. The thermometer is not waterproof. Do not submerge the unit in
water when cleaning.
6. Store the thermometer in a dry location, free from dust and
contamination and away from direct sunlight.
7. Periodic cleaning and disinfection of the device following in
order to prevent patient cross infection. Please clean and
disinfect the thermometer immediately after each use.

Care And Cleaning
8. Ensure that children do not use the instrument unsupervised;
some parts are small enough to be swallowed.
9. Do not remove or modify the equipment without permission.
10. Strong electromagnetic fields may interfere with the proper
operation of the thermometer. The device needs special
pre-cautions regarding EMC according to the EMC information.

NOTE 1At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.NOTE 2
These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is
affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
a The ISM(industrial, scientific and medical) bands between 0,15 MHz and 80 MHz
are 6,765 MHzto6,795 MHz;13,553 MHz to 13,567 MHZ;26,957 MHz to 27,283

b The compliance levels in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz
and in the frequency range 80 MHz to 2,7 GHz are intended to decrease the
likelihood that mobile/portable communications equipment could cause
interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient areas. For this reason, an
additional factor of 10/3 has been incorporated into the formulae used in
calculating the recommended separation distance for transmitters in these
frequency ranges.
c Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio(cellular/
cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio
broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To
assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an
electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in
the location in which the device is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level
above, the device should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal
performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as
re-orienting or relocating the device.
d Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than
3 V/m.
