Installing/Replacing the Battery

1.Pull the battery cover off in the direction shown the diagram below.

2.Install one new “CR2032” battery into the battery compartment, with + facing outward.

3.Replace and fasten the battery cover securely.

Battery Warning: Do not dispose of batteries in the trash or in a fire. Re- cycle battery or manage as hazard- ous waste. Do not recharge battery, put it in backward, or disassemble it. This may cause explosion, leakage or injury.

1.Press and release the Power Button to turn on the unit. The LCD will show the last memory as in Figure 1, then you will hear a beep. After about 2 seconds, the LCD will show that the unit is ready for measurement, as in Figure 2.

2.See instructions on page 3 to straighten the ear canal. Insert the probe gen- tly into the ear canal, then press and release the Power Button to start mea- surement. You will hear a beep.

3.While it is measuring, the LCD will show as in Figure 3.

4.You will hear a “beep-beep” when the measurement is completed. Do not remove the thermometer until you hear both beeps.

5.The LCD will illuminate and show the measured temperature reading, as in Figure 1. Refer to Table 1 for tempera- ture range and back light color.

Table 1

Measured		Measured	Back Light Color
Temperature (°F)		Temperature (°C)
T ≤ 97.7		T ≤ 36.5	Green
97.8	≤ T ≤ 98.8	38.6 ≤ T ≤ 37.1	Light Green
98.9	≤ T ≤ 99.4	37.2 ≤ T ≤ 37.4	Orange
99.5 ≤ T ≤ 100.3		37.5 ≤ T ≤ 37.9	Light Red
100.4	≤ T ≤ 109.9	38.0 ≤ T ≤ 43.3	Red

Fahrenheit / Celsius Switchable Models: Fahrenheit or Celsius mode can be switched when the unit is ready for a mea- surement. To switch between °C and °F, press the M button then immediately press the Power button. The LCD will show “F” or “C”, then it will go to the Memory mode display (see Memory mode on page 7 for description).

To Ensure Proper Operation:

1.Allow a 5-second interval between each measurement.

2.Ensure the ear canal is straight during measurement as described on page 4.

3.Ensure the probe lens is clean before each measurement. A dirty probe lens may cause inaccurate measurements.

4.The thermometer must be at room tem- perature of approximately 61°F~104°F (16°C~40°C) for at least 30 minutes before use.

Caution: Performance of the device may be degraded if the device is operated or stored outside the stated temperature and humidity range or if the patient’s temperature is below ambient (room) temperature.

Recalling Memory:

This unit has 10-memory capability.

1.Press the Power button to turn on power.

2.Press the M button to recall memory.

3.Press the M button repeatedly to cycle through the last 10 temperature read- ings.

4.To take a new measurement, press the power button (the unit will automatically power off after one minute of non-use).
