TAKING A READING
1. Clean the lens at the tip of the thermometer, using alcohol
and a soft cotton swab. Cleaning the lens before each use
ensures the most accurate reading and prevents cross-
contamination, see page 12 for complete cleaning and care
instructions.
2. Press and release the SCAN button. The thermometer will
perform a brief self-test, during which all indicators on the
display will be shown, Fig. 1, followed by the last reading
taken.
3. The thermometer will beep, indicating that the unit is ready
for measurement. Gently insert the probe into the ear canal
until a slight resistance is felt, Fig. 2.
4. Press and release the SCAN button again, while keeping the
probe in place. A beep will sound when the measurement is
complete.
5. The temperature reading will be shown on the display.
6. If the temperature measurement is below 100.4° F, the beep indicating the
reading is complete will be a single, short beep. A happy face will be displayed
next to the reading, Fig. 3.
7. If the reading is 100.4° F or above, the unit will sound a long beep, followed by
two short beeps. A sad face will be displayed, Fig. 4.
8. After about one minute after use, the thermometer will automatically beep and
shut off.
9. Clean the thermometer lens again after use. Wait at least 10 seconds between
consecutive readings, to ensure accuracy.
NOTE: The backlit display will remain lit for approximately 5 seconds each time
the SCAN button is pressed, after each reading is completed, and each time the
M (Memory) button is pressed to recall a previous reading.
