digital bath and room thermometer
Why is it important to monitor
the temperature of baby’s
room?
Newborn babies are not able to regulate
their own body temperature. It is therefore
very important that the temperature of
their surroundings are monitored to make
sure that they are not too cold or too
hot so that you can adapt their bedding,
change their clothing or alter the
temperature of their room accordingly.
Why measure the temperature
ofbaby’s bath?
Measuring baby’s bath water is important
for baby’s safety and comfort. A newborn
baby’s skin is very sensitive and delicate
and can react much more quickly to
temperature changes than toddler or adult
skin. It is therefore very important to test
and monitor the temperature of baby’s
bath water before and during bath time
to make sure that the temperature is not
too hot and does not fall too low. With our
digital bath and room thermometer you
can easily check if the water temperature
iscorrect.
Instructions for safe care
and use:
Your Vital Baby®digital room & bath
thermometer must be stored and
used at a temperature ranging between
0°C and 50°C for best results.
For use as a room
thermometer:
1) Tap the screen firmly to switch on the
thermometer.
2) Place the thermometer on a surface or
shelf that is out of direct sunlight and
not near a direct heat/cooling source
such as a radiator or air conditioner.
3) The temperature will be displayed in
the digital display and will fluctuate
as the ambient temperature of the air
fluctuates.
4) The ideal temperature for baby’s room
is between 16°C and 20°C.
5) Thermometer will switch off
automatically after 1 hour.
Note: the word ‘COLD’ appearing at
the top of the display screen is only
applicable when the thermometer is used
to measure the temperature of bath water.
Pleaseignore this function when using the
thermometer to monitor the temperature
of baby’sroom.
Our Vital Baby®digital room and bath thermometer has been specially
designed to give fast and accurate temperature readings whether it is sitting
in baby’s room or floating in their bath. The large LCD display makes it easy
to read the temperature and the built-in warning light flashes, making it clear
when bath water is too hot.
This thermometer also doubles up as a fun bath toy that is safe and free from
Phthalates, Latex and BPA.

For use as a bath water
thermometer:
The thermometer is 100% waterproof and
is suitable for submerging in bath water.
1) Tap the screen firmly on a hard surface
to switch on the thermometer.
2) Place the thermometer in baby’s
bath and start to fill the bath with the
required amount of water using cold
water first.
3) Once you have added the desired
amount of cold water slowly add hot
water until the temperature reaches
around 37°C. Thistemperature is just
right for your baby.
4) If the temperature is 39° or higher the
LED light above the display screen will
flash RED as a warning. The screen will
also display the actual temperature
reading. If you see a reading of 39°C
or higher DO NOT place your baby in
the bath. You will risk scalding your
baby. Addcold water to bring the
temperature down to 37°C.
5) Over the duration of your baby’s
bath time you should monitor the
temperature regularly to make sure that
the water has not gotten too cold. If you
notice the temperature drop and the
‘COLD’ symbol is displayed add a little
warm water making sure that you do not
pour hot water directly onto baby.
6) Once bath time is over and baby
is warm, dry and safe, remove the
thermometer from the water and towel
dry.
7) Thermometer will switch off
automatically after 1 hour.
Cleaning and Maintenance:
Wash the thermometer in warm soapy
water, rinse well in hotwater and dry
before using for the first time and after
each use.
Do not use abrasive or solvent based
cleaning agents as this may damage
the product. Notsuitable for use
in microwave, steam or cold water
sterilisers.
When not in use, store the thermometer
in a dry area away from direct sunlight
and heat/cooling sources.
Replacing the battery:
If the display becomes faded the battery
needs to be replaced for accurate results.
To replace the battery, open the cover on
the reverse of the thermometer by using
a coin to turn the cover in the direction
indicated.
Remove the old battery and replace with
a new CR2032 battery. Replace the cover
carefully to avoid damaging the waterproof
seal and tighten with a coin in the direction
