•Do not expose the thermometer to sunlight or water.
12.Maintenance and Cleaning
•The Infrared Sensor is the most precise part, must be protected
carefully.
•Clean the device with a cotton bud lightly moistened with 70%
alcohol.
•Do not clean the device with corrosive detergent.
•Keep the device away from water or other liquid.
•Store the device in a dry environment, and keep it away from dust
and direct sunlight.
13.Troubleshooting
If you happen to have one of the following problems while using
the non-contact forehead IR thermometer please refer to this
breakdown service guide to help resolve the problem. If the problem
persists please contact our customer service.
The screen displays the body temperature inferior to 32°C (89.6°F)
If you’re on Surface mode the 32°C(89.6°F) temperature displayed is
showing the external temperature that your body releases.
The screen displays the message “HI“
When using the Non-contact Body Infrared
Thermometer the message HI can show on
the screen.
The analysis is above the measurement range
selected, either superior to 42.5°C (108°F) in
Body mode or superior to 60°C (140°F) in
Surface mode.
The screen displays the message “LO“
When using the Non-contact Body Infrared
Thermometer the message Lo can show on
the screen.
The temperature analyzed is under the
measuring range selected, either less than
32°C (90°F) in Body mode or less than 0°C
(32°F) in Surface mode.

This message displays in various cases – please find below a list
of the main cases.
Reasons for “LO” or “HI”
message display
Temperature reading hampered
by hair, perspiration…
Temperature hampered by an air
flux.
The measuring distance is too
far.
From high/low temperature
condition to room temperature
Advice
Make sure that there is no
obstruction prior to taking a
temperature.
Make sure there is no air flux as
this could interfere with the infrared
system.
