The Advantages of Clever Choice Duo™

Dual mode (forehead temperature and ear temperature) Thanks to dual mode design, you are free to take body temperature by detecting the infrared heat given off by the forehead or eardrum, The forehead temperature measurement range is from 89.6℉ to 108.0℉(32℃ to 42.2℃).The ear temperature measurement range is from 32.0℉ to 212.0℉(0℃ to 100.0℃).

The product consists of ABS plastics, temperature sensor, Infrared temperature measuring element, microcomputer controlled circuit, LCD , backlight and buzzer.

Convenient for use Special ergonomic design to facilitate operation. No inconvenience would be caused to your daily life. It’s available for measurement when your children’s sleeping. It provides comfortable user experience compared with anus thermometer for children, rapid reading and simple operation compared with mouth thermometer.

Memory recallA maximum of 20 previous readings is available to help you track the changes of your body temperature.

Safe and hygienic Compared to mercury thermometer, there is no danger of breaking the glass or swallowing mercury. It is completely safe for children to use.

Fever warning After a reading, the backlight will appear green, orange, or red to indicate presence and severity of a fever. When the temperature is more than or equal to 38.0°C/100.4?, there will be 6 short double and half beeps and the reading will flicker with orange backlight for 5 seconds. This indicates that you may have a fever. Please consult your doctor if you are not sure. If fever is worse, the backlight will appear red.

Extensive clinical data of hospitalThe cooperation with designated hospitals is subjected to precise clinical verification, with the support of extensive clinical data and professional medical experts.

Application scopeThe thermometer takes human body temperature for clinical or household use. It applies to all age groups and those who are suffering from a fever. (Ear temperature mode should not be used for children below 3 months)

Operating principleThe infrared temperature sensor detects infrared energy emitted by the eardrum. A built-in lens focuses the collected energy, which is converted into a temperature reading by the thermopiles and measurement circuits.

How to Use Forehead Mode

Rapid measurement
  1. As shown in Figure A, put the cover on the probe, and position the thermometer at the center of the forehead, just above the eyebrow. Ensure that the thermometer is in contact with the forehead.
  2. Press and release the Head button. The temperature will be displayed on the screen instantly.

Continuous measurement (more accurate)

As shown in Figure B, press and hold the Head button, slide the thermometer across the forehead from one temple to the other and then release the button. The temperature will display on LCD screen.

Note: During continuous measurement the LCD displays the current read temperature value about every 0.5 seconds and then shows the maximum temperature value at the end.

How to Use Ear Mode

  1. Gently remove the sensor/probe cover to reveal the ear probe.
  2. Insert the ear probe into the ear canal. Ensure that the sensor is pointer towards the eardrum.
  3. Press and release the Ear button. The temperature will be displayed on the screen instantly. You can take another measurement when the backlight is off.

Note:Children under 1 year: Pull their ear straight back.Children aged 1 year to adult: Pull the ear up and back.

To Avoid Inaccurate Readings:

  1. Make sure that there is no dirt in or on the temperature sensor
  2. Use the device indoors, or with no strong winds.
  3.  Make sure there is no sweat on the forehead.
  4. Make sure the ear canal is clean.
  5.  Hold still and keep calm during measurement.
  6. If Clever Choice Duo TM is moved to an area with a different ambient temperature, wait 30 minutes before testing.
  7. If the patient moves to a room with a different ambient temperature, it is suggested to wait at least 10 minutes to test.
  8. Do not hold the unit for too long, as it is highly sensitive to heat.

Sound and Backlight Information

Notes:

  1. When the temperature is less than or equal to 37.4°C/99.4?, there will be a long beep with green backlight. This indicates that the temperature is normal.
  2. When the temperature is between 37.5°C/99.5? to 37.9°C/100.3?, there will be a long beep with yellow backlight for 3 seconds. This indicates that the temperature is a little high. It should be noted.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM – for EQUIPMENT and SYSTEMS that are not LIFE-SUPPORTING

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the CLETEF-786 Infrared Thermometer.

The CLETEF-786 Infrared Thermometer is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the CLETEF-786 Infrared Thermometer can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the CLETEF-786 Infrared Thermometer as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.

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.
