The temperature range of this ear thermometer is 50° F (10°
C)–122° F (50° C). If a measurement is below this range, the
unit will display “Lo” (Figure 7). If above this range, the unit will
display “Hi” (Figure 8).
The unit will display “Err” if the operating temperature is not
within the permissible range for measurement (see details in
technical section of this manual) (Figure 9).
7. The unit will automatically turn off after 30 seconds of non-use.
IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING
TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
• The measurement results that users receive are for reference
only. If users have any health concerns, please consult a physician.
• It is not necessary to perform an “ear tug” or pull on
the ear before taking a temperature measurement.
• For additional measurements, users should wait at least 5
seconds between readings to ensure accuracy.
• Use the ear thermometer at room temperature, as extremes
in environmental temperature can impact accuracy.
Unit should be stored at room temperature. Before use, the
unit must be at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
• Clean the waterproof probe with a cotton swab moistened
with alcohol between readings. Always keep rubbing
alcohol/cleaners away from children.
• It is recommended that you take multiple readings (three or
more) in the same ear and use the highest reading in the
following special circumstances:
• When taking the temperature of an infant younger than
three months.
• When taking the temperature of children under the age of
three who have special conditions, such as compromised
immune systems, and for whom the absence or presence
of a fever is critical.
• When you are first learning how to use this ear thermometer
and until you are obtaining consistent readings.
Note: Slight temperature variations may be observed
(+/- 0.3 – 0.5°F or +/- 0.2 – 0.3°C) in consecutive
measurements. This is common to all types of thermometers.
• Always take the temperature in the same ear, as readings
may differ from one ear to another.
