the tip, and close your mouth. Hold the
thermometer steady keeping the tip in the same
position for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds you will
hear a beep indicating the measurement is
complete. NOTE: If the tip is not placed in the
proper position the temperature reading can be
as much as 1.2˚F/0.7˚C lower than one taken in
the correct position.
For Rectal Measurement
Lubricate the tip of the thermometer with a water-
soluble jelly for easier insertion. Gently slide the
tip no more than 1/2 inch (12 mm) into the rectum.
Hold the thermometer in place for 5 seconds.
After 5 seconds you will hear a beep indicating
the measurement is complete. If you want to use
the thermometer in another mode after using it
rectally, be sure to clean it very thoroughly with
alcohol. NOTE: If you detect any resistance
when inserting the thermometer, stop immediately.
For Axillary (Underarm) Measurement
Make sure the underarm is dry and there is no
material between the side and the arm. Hold the
arm close to the side for 5 minutes before taking
a temperature reading. Point the thermometer
upward and place the tip well in the underarm.
Hold the thermometer with the tip slightly bent
and the arm firmly pressed against the side for
about 20 seconds. You will hear a beep when the
temperature reading is complete.

5-Second 3-Way Thermometer
includes one CR1225 3V Lithium battery already
installed. The approximate life of this battery is
5 years. When a low battery symbol appears on
the LCD display follow these instructions for
changing the battery.
1. Pull out the battery cover from the end of the
thermometer.
2. Remove the battery using a non-metallic tool.
3. Install a new CR1225 3V Lithium battery with
the positive side (+) facing up.
You will hear a second beep when the self-
test is completed. After the first use, the prior
reading and a figure indicating the last
measurement method will automatically appear
after the second beep. Each time you turn the
thermometer on it will automatically
default to
the same method as the prior reading.
4. The thermometer is ready to use when the
Fahrenheit/Centigrade (F/C) symbol is flashing.
5. Turn off the thermometer after use by pressing
the ON/OFF button. If you forget to turn it off
it will automatically shut off after 1 minute.
6. IMPORTANT: If the thermometer senses an
ambient temperature of 86˚F/30˚C the word
ON will appear on the screen immediately after
displaying the last reading. This will occur if the
temperature of the room where you store it is
over 86˚F/30˚C or if you want to take a second
reading immediately. If ON appears, simply
press the ON/OFF button again and take your
temperature reading. In this case the F/C
symbol will not be flashing.
7.
Clean the tip with alcohol before and after each use.
8. Replace the protective cover after each use
and keep it on when storing the thermometer.
NOTE:
• Do not immerse the thermometer in water.
•
Clean the tip with alcohol after each measurement.
• Wait 30 minutes after physical exercise, bathing,
eating, or drinking before taking a temperature
reading.
• Do not expose the thermometer to extreme
temperatures, direct sunlight, dust, or electricity.
For Oral Measurement
Keep your mouth closed for 5 minutes before
taking the temperature. Place the tip under the
tongue at the back of the mouth. For the most
accurate read, place the tip as far back under the
tongue as possible. Press the tongue down over
