Use of the unit
Pre-measurementAbout normal body temperature & fever the temperature in the forehead and temple area differs from the internal temperature, which is taken orally or rectally. Vasoconstriction, an effect which constricts the blood vessels and cools the skin, can occur during the early stages of a fever. In this case, the temperature measured by the non-contact thermometer may be unusually low. If the measurement therefore does not match the patients own perception or is unusually low, repeat the measurement every 15 minutes. As a reference, you can also measure the internal body temperature using a conventional oral or rectal thermometer.
Body temperature can vary from one individual/person to next. It also varies by location on the body and time of day. Below shows the statistical normal ranges from different sites.
Please keep in mind that temperatures measured from differentsites, even at the same time, should not be directly compared. Fever indicates that the body temperature is higher than normal. Thissymptom may be caused by infection, overdressing or immunization. Some people may not experience fever even when they are ill.
These include, but are not limited to, infants younger than 3 months old, persons with compromised immune systems, persons taking antibiotics, steroids or antipyretics (aspirin, ibuprofen, acetaminophen), or persons with certain chronic illnesses. Please consult your physician when you feel ill even if you do not have fever.
Table* 1 Body Site Normal Temperature Range
Body site | Normal temperature range |
Oral | 0.6°C (1°F) or more |
Rectal/ear | 0.3°C to 0.6 °C (0.5 °F to 1°F) higher than oral temperature |
Axillary (armpit) | 0.3°C to 0.6°C(0.5°F to 1°F) lower than oral temperature |
Measuring procedureAs a body thermometer1) Select body mode , the temperature unit will appear. (Picture at right)
2) Move the probe close to the forehead, make sure the probe is flat and take measurement with a distance within 1-5 cm.Press Start/Stop button.
3) The measurement will be finished in 1 seconds, when it has been completed, you can hear 3 short beeps, at the same time, the reading will appear on the display.
Note:
- If the reading is <37.5°C(99.5°F) and 32°C(89.6°F) the displaywill show with green backlight.
- If the reading is between value 37.5-38.5°C(99.5-101.3°F), the display will show together with 1 short beeps, the orange backlight lasts for alarm.
- If the reading is above value 38.5°C(109.4°F), the display will show together with 3 short beeps, the red backlight lasts for alarm.
- As the forehead measurement temperature is likely to be affected by sweat, oil and the surroundings, the reading shall be taken as a reference only.
- If the probe is placed at an angle close to the forehead measurement, the reading will be affected by surrounding temperature.
- Babies’ skin reacts very quickly in the ambient temperature. Therefore, do not take their temperature with the non-contact thermometer during/after breastfeeding, because the skin temperature maybe lower than the internal body temperature.
- The thermometer will automatically turn off if left idle for 30 seconds.
Measuring procedure
As a object thermometer
- Select Object Mode, the temperature unit will appear. (Picture at right)
- Move the probe close to the object, make sure the probe is flat and take measurement with a distance within 1-5cm. Press the Start/Stop button to take measurement
- The measurement will be finished in 1 seconds, when it has been completed, you can hear 3 short beeps, at the same time, the reading will appear on the display
Note :
- As the object scan temperature is likely to be affected by the surroundings, the reading shall be taken as a reference only.
- If the probe is placed at an angle close the object scan, the reading will be affected by surrounding temperature.
- The thermometer will automatically turn off if left idle for 30 seconds.
