INSTRUCTIONS FOR USEBefore first use, pull to remove the tab from the battery cover.
INSTALLING THE HYGIENE COVER
WARNING: Choking from swallowing probe covers and connection ring by children or pets is possible, please keep the probe covers and connection ring at places where children and pets can’t reach.
- Gently twist the probe cap to remove it. Always use a new and undamaged hygiene cover before each reading. Ensure the ear canal is clean.
2. Place a new hygiene cover into the connection ring. See diagram 1.3. Insert the thermometer probe into the centre of the hygiene cover and connection ring. See diagram 2.4. Push until it is secure. If the hygiene cover did not connect firmly, this icon will be flashing on the LCD screen. Remove the hygiene cover and re-install.Correct installation of the hygiene cover ensures accurate readings.
5. Press ‘On/Mem’ button. The thermometer is ready for use when the ear icon stops flashing and two short beeps have sounded.6. Gently pull the baby’s ear back, straightening the ear canal. Position the probe snugly into the ear canal, ensuring an accurate reading. See diagram 3 and 4.7. To measure the ear temperature, press the ‘Scan’ button until there is a long beep.The LCD screen will light up automatically after pressing the scan button, and will automatically turn off after 5 seconds.8. The temperature will show clearly on the LCD display.9. To power off, hold down the ‘On/Mem’ button for approximately 5 seconds until the LCD screen shows ‘off’. The thermometer will automatically shut down after 1 minute if it is not turned off, prolonging the battery life.
FEVER ALARMIf the thermometer detects a body temperature ≥37.5°C (99.5°F), one long beep will sound followed by three short beeps to warn the user of potential fever.
SWITCHING BETWEEN FAHRENHEIT (°F) AND CELSIUS (°C)1. In ‘Power off’ mode, press and hold the ‘Scan’ button.2. Then press the On/Mem’ button for 3 seconds whilst still holding the scan button. The ‘°C’ will change to ‘°F’. You can use the same process to change from ’°F’ back to ‘°C’.
MEMORY FUNCTION1. Press the ‘On/Mem’ button again to see the last temperature stored.The thermometer will automatically save the last reading into the memory if it is within the temperature range of 34°C to 42.2 °C (93.2 °F to 108.0°F).
CLEANING AND STORAGEThe probe is the most delicate part of the thermometer. When cleaning the lens handle with care to avoid damage. If device is accidentally used without hygiene cover, clean the probe as follows:
1. Use a cotton swab (Alcohol 70% concentration) to clean the lens found inside the probe.2. Allow the probe to fully dry for at least 1 minute.The thermometer should be stored at temperature between -20°C to +50°C.Keep the unit dry and away from any liquids and out of direct sunlight.The probe should not be submerged in any liquids.If the thermometer is used according to the instructions, periodic re-adjustment is not required.
CHANGING THE BATTERY
Keep the battery away from children.This device is supplied with one lithium cell battery (CR2032).1. Unscrew battery cover.2. Flip the battery out with a small screwdriver.3. Insert the new battery under the metal hook on the left side and press the right side of the battery down firmly. See diagram 5.4. Replace the battery cover.
The positive (+) side up and the negative (-) side pointed down.

Enable normal use: 1 yearExpected Service Life: 4 yearsComplies with ASTM E1965-98, EN12470-5:2003 Clinical thermometers-Part 5: Performance of infra-red ear thermometers (with maximum device), IEC/EN60601-1-2(EMC),IEC/EN60601-1(Safety) standards.Accuracy: +/-0.2 °C (0.4 °F) in a temperature range of 35.5-42°C (95.9-107.6°F). Accuracy of +/-0.3 °C (0.5 °F) for other temperature ranges.This thermometer converts the ear temperature to display its “oral equivalent.” (according to the result of the clinical evaluation)
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for 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.
a. Field strengths from fixed 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 the Digital Ear Thermometer is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Digital Ear Thermometer should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Digital Ear Thermometer.b. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

TROUBLESHOOTING
It is recommended that you measure 3 times in the same ear. If the 3 measurements are different, select the highest temperature.There is no gender and age limitation for using infrared thermometers.
Clinical repeatability 0.18°C newborn to 1 year old, 0.17°C 1-5years old, 0.15°C 5years+Holding the thermometer too long may cause a higher ambient temperature reading. This could make the body temperature measurement lower than usual.
This product comes with a 12 month warranty. Manufacture Date:as the serial number (please open the battery cover, it is shown on the inside of the device.) Ex.SN:E912A000001, the first “E” is External, the second number “9” is the manufacture year 2009, the third and the fourth number “12” is the manufacture month, the remaining figures are the serial number.
