DIRECTIONS
1. Press the on/off button next to the LCD. A tone will sound as the screen shows
followed by last recorded temperature. After showing the self-test temperature, the thermometer is in testing
mode.
2. Position thermometer in desired location (mouth, rectum or armpit).
Oral use: Place thermometer under tongue as indicated by " " position shown in
Figure 2. Close your mouth and breathe evenly through the nose to prevent the
measurement from being influenced by inhaled/exhaled air.
Rectal use: Lubricate silver probe tip with petroleum jelly for easy insertion. Gently
insert sensor approximately 1 cm (less than 1/2") into rectum.
Armpit use: Wipe armpit dry. Place probe in armpit and keep arm pressed firmly at side. From a medical
viewpoint, this method will always provide inaccurate readings and should not be used if precise measure-
ments are required.
3. The degree sign flashes throughout the testing process. When flashing stops, an alarm will beep for approx-
imately 10 seconds. The measured reading will appear on the LCD simultaneously. The minimum measure-
ment time until the signaling tone (beep) must be maintained without exception. The measurement contin-
ues even after the buzzer notification. In order to achieve a better body temperature measurement result,
it is recommended to keep the probe in mouth or rectum about 2 minutes, or in armpit about 5 minutes,
regardless of the beep sound. A minimum 30-second measurement time should be maintained.
Note: Normally the buzzes are "Bi-Bi-Bi-Bi-". Alarm beeps more rapidly when temperature reaches 37.8°C
(100°F) or higher, and the buzzes are "Bi-Bi-Bi----- Bi-Bi-Bi------- Bi-Bi-Bi".
4. To prolong battery life, press the on/off button to turn unit off after testing is complete. If no action is taken,
the unit will automatically shut off after around 10 minutes.

(90.0°F).
Temperature taken is higher than 42.9°C
(109.9°F).
The system is not functioning properly.
Dead battery. If battery icon is flashing,

BATTERY REPLACEMENT
1. Replace battery when " " appears in lower right corner of LCD.
2. Pull battery cover off as shown in Figure 3.
3. Gently pull out plastic circuit board with battery chamber approxi-
mately 1 cm (slightly less than 1/2"). (See Figure 4.)
4. Use pointed object such as a pen to remove old battery. Dispose of
battery lawfully. Replace with new 1.5 V DC button battery (LR41 or
SR41, UCC 392 or equivalent). Be sure battery is installed with "+"
pole facing up. (See Figure 5.)
5. Slide battery chamber back into place and attach cover.
CALIBRATION
The thermometer is initially calibrated at the time of manufacture. If the thermometer is used according to the
instructions for use, periodic readjustment is not required. However, we recommend checking calibration every
two years or whenever clinical accuracy of the thermometer is in question. Turn on the thermometer and insert
into the water bath and then check the laboratory accuracy of the thermometer. Please send the entire device to
the dealer or manufacturer.
The above recommendations do not supersede the legal requirements. The user must always comply with legal
requirements for the control of the measurement, functionality and accuracy of the device which are required by
the scope of relevant laws, directives or ordinances where the device is used.
CLEANING AND DISINFECTION
1. Immerse the thermometer probe in distilled water for at least 1 minute.
2. Use a clean, soft cloth to wipe the thermometer down to remove any residue.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 three times, until no residue is seen upon visual inspection.
4. For thorough cleaning and disinfection, please use method A or B:
Method A (high-level disinfection): Immerse the thermometer probe in 0.55% OPA (o-Phthalaldehyde), such
as CIDEX OPA, for at least 12 minutes at 20°C.
Method B (low-level disinfection): Using a clean soft cloth dipped in 70% medical alcohol, wipe the probe
3 times, for at least 1 minute each time.
5. Repeat steps 1 to 3 to remove OPA residue.
Note 1: Rectal use is not recommended at home as OPA will not be readily available outside of a hospital. If rectal
measurement is necessary, we strongly recommend high-level disinfection.
Note 2: Please operate in accordance with OPA reference manual. To prevent damage to the thermometer, please
note and observe the following:
•
Do not use benzene, paint thinner, gasoline or other strong solvents to clean the thermometer.
•
Do not attempt to disinfect the sensing probe (tip) of the thermometer by immersing in alcohol, OPA or hot
water (water over 50°C (122°F)) for extended periods.
•
Do not use ultrasonic cleaning to clean the thermometer.
