How to use

Measuring human body temperature in the Ear Canal.

  1. Press the `on/recall’ button to turn on the thermometer, a beep sound is heard and the LCD displays as Fig. A in one second.When the LCD displays as Fig. B, now ready to measure.
  2. Straighten the ear canal by pulling the outer ear up and back to give a clear view of the eardrum.– For children under 1 year, Pull the ear straight back.– For children ages 1 year to adult, Pull the ear up and back. (Caution: Many pediatricians suggest use of ear thermometers for children older than 6 months.)
  3. While pulling the outer ear, insert the probe snugly into the ear canal (best to insert deep), press the `scan’ button.Release it when you hear a beep sound. A beep indicates measurement is complete. Remove the thermometer from the ear. The display show the measure temperature.
  4. Measuring again: If measuring again, please unclinch the `scan’ button and wait for the `‘ symbol to display, then press `scan’ button to measure again. Note: The time between each reading should be not less than 12 seconds otherwise there is not any change on the LCD.
  5. Memory search: Press the `on/recall’ button, the last ten memories (NO.9-NO.0) will take turns to display on the LCD as Fig. C and Fig. D.
  6. The LCD will displays ‘Er1’ as Fig. E and cannot displays temperature when the ambient temperature is out of the range of 16°C to 35°C.Note: Before measuring, the thermometer shall be stabilized at the operating ambient condition for a minimum of 30 min.
  7. Shut off: The thermometer shall automatically shut off without manipulating in one minute.

Cleaning and Storage

  1. Store thermometer in a dry location free from dust and contamination and away from direct sunlight. The ambient temperature at the storage location should remain fairly constant and within the range of -25°C to 55°C.
  2. Use an alcohol swab or cotton swab moistened with alcohol (70% Isopropy) to clean the thermometer casing and the measuring probe before each use.Ensure that no liquid enters the interior of the thermometer.
  3. Never use abrasive cleaning agents, thinners or gasoline for cleaning and never immerse the instrument in water or other cleaning liquids. Take care not to scratch the surface of the probe membrane or display.
