Fever Scout™ Patch Charger

The Fever Scout™ patch is powered by a rechargeable

lithium battery. For proper disposal of the battery,

please refer to instructions on page 18.

INTENDED USE & PRECAUTIONS

The wireless Fever Scout™ Continuos Monitoring thermometer is a non-invasive and re-usable electronic device for home

use. This product is intended for non-urgent ambulatory continuous armpit body temperature monitoring from ages 29

days and older.

Intended use:

1. Any form of modiﬁcation to this device is forbidden.

2. Do not use this device together with MRI or CT

equipment.

3. Physicians should diagnose based on clinical references

and symptoms, and use this device as a subsidiary tool.

4. Do not use this device if it cannot stay in contact with the

skin and do not use on wounded or irritated skin.

5. This device is non-sterile.

6. It is recommended for indoor use only.

7. The Fever Scout™ patch is to be worn under the armpit.

Patch exposure to ambient temperature may cause

inaccurate temperature readings.

8. Do not submerge the Fever Scout™ patch in the water.

Patch may be removed for bath or shower and re-applied

after.

9. Do not excessively bend or twist the Fever Scout™ patch.

10. In order to hear the notiﬁcation sound for fever

alert, the smartphone should not be kept in the silence

mode while in use with Fever Scout™.

11. In case of skin discomfort, remove the Fever Scout™

patch immediately.

12. For additional safety, keep the product out of user’s

mouth.

13. User may only change the charger’s AAA batteries;

no user serviceable part is provided for this product.

14. Device setup shall be performed by adults. Please

call customer service at (408) 663-6784 if any issue

occurs during device setup.

15.

The performance of the device may be degraded

if one or more of the following occur: a) operation

outside the manufacturer’s stated temperature and

humidity range; b) storage outside the manufacturer’s

stated temperature and humidity range; c) mechanical

shock (for example, being dropped); d) patient

temperature is below ambient temperature.

2. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit

different from that to which the receiver is connected.

3. Consult an experienced radio / TV technician for help.

CERTIFICATION & DISCLAIMER

Battery Removal

The charger contains AAA batteries and the Fever Scout™

patch contains a lithium battery. Refer to proper disposal

instructions below:

1. To remove the battery, cut the Fever Scout™ patch. The

battery is located in the center of the patch.

2. To remove the AAA batteries, open the battery

compartment door on the bottom of the charger.

3. All batteries/accumulators should be disposed separately

from the municipal waste stream via designated collection

facilities appointed by the government or the local

authorities. The correct disposal of your old batteries/accu-

mulators will help to prevent potential negative consequenc-

es for the environment, animal and human health.

4. For more detailed information about disposal of your old

batteries/accumulators, please contact your local waste

disposal service.

Field strengths from mixed 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 Fever Scout is used exceeds the

applicable RF compliance level above, Fever Scout should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional

measures may be necessary such as re-orienting or relocating Fever Scout.

NOTE 1: At 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.
