ear thermometer outside of the ear.

display (Figure 3).
In NIGHT MODE: In addition to the arrow symbol, the
flashlight will turn on for approximately two seconds.
5.Insert the probe tip of the ear thermometer into the ear canal
within two seconds (Figure 4). It is important that the probe
tip be well positioned within the ear canal. Measurement time
for the actual reading is approx. one second.
6.A beep sound will indicate the end of the
measurement. Results of the temperature
measurement will be displayed (Figure 5). In NIGHT
MODE, the display will illuminate for five seconds.
If a temperature reading is greater than or equal to 100˚ F
(37.8° C), the fever alarm will display a frowning face and beep
twice to alert the user that it is likely that a fever is present
(Figure 6). THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT A FEVER IS NOT
PRESENT AT A LOWER TEMPERATURE. For more information
on the Fever Alarm feature, please refer to the “What is the
Fever Alarm?” section of this manual (page 5).
