UNDERARM (AXILLARY) USE
1. Wipe the underarm with a towel.
2. Place the thermometer under the arm so the tip is touching the skin and
position the arm next to the body. With a young child, it is sometimes helpful to
hug the child to keep their arm next to their body. This helps hold the
thermometer steady and ensures that the room air does not affect the reading.
3. When the peak temperature is reached (usually 30 seconds) 10 beep signals
will sound and the “°F” sign will stop flashing and the display light will come on. The temperature is now ready
to read and will not change when the thermometer is removed.
4. Turn the thermometer off by pressing the On/Off button. If you forget to turn it off, the thermometer will
automatically turn off after approximately 9 minutes.
5. Wash the thermometer as recommended.
AUTOMATIC NIGHT GLOW DISPLAY
The night glow display works automatically as you turn your Vicks thermometer on or off. When turned on, the
display will glow for 5 seconds to illuminate the last temperature taken and the ready display. When you turn off the
thermometer, the display will glow again, illuminating the temperature reading for 4 seconds.
TO RECALL THE LAST TEMPERATURE
When the thermometer is turned on, the last measured temperature will be shown on the LCD display with the letter
“M” shown under the degree sign for approximately 2 seconds.
