Note that the thermometer will display a default temperature of 00.0˚F/00.0˚C after battery power is restored and until a measurement is taken.
When the low battery symbol appears on the display (Figure 3), the battery should be replaced. When the low battery symbol appears with the “Lo” symbol, the battery must be replaced in order for the ear thermometer to function.

USING NIGHT MODE & DAY MODE
Night Mode is a unique feature that allows a temperature reading to be taken in a dark setting.
Night Mode functions like Day Mode with the addition of an LED flashlight feature to aid in guiding the probe into the ear canal and a display that will illuminate for 5 seconds after measurement.
Select Night Mode or Day Mode by using the slide switch on the bottom of the device. For Night Mode, slide the switch to the right. For Day Mode, slide it to the left.

Day Mode is recommended for general use in order to preserve battery life. Modes can be changed at any time before or after measurement. They can also be changed regardless of whether the unit is turned on/off. Do not change modes during measurement as the accuracy of the reading may be affected.
