READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING When using the product, especially when children are present, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: z This product is intended for household use only . For information on thermometers for professional use, please see www .
z If your thermometer will not be used regularly , remove the battery to prevent possible damage due to chemical leakage. If the battery leaks, remove carefully . Do not allow bare skin to touch leaking fluid. z Dispose of used batteries properly . Do not wrap them in metal or aluminum foil.
The T emporalScanner has patented software, providing arterial heat balance. This unique process determines temperature by accurately measuring the balance between the tissues warming from arterial blood and tissues cooling/ warming caused by heat loss/gain to the environment.

The instrument will continually scan for the highest temperature (peak) as long as the button is depressed.
What you should know before using the T A T : z Measure only the side of the head exposed to the environment. Anything covering the area to be measured (hair , hat, wig, bandages) would insulate the area, resulting in falsely high readings. z Slide the thermometer straight across the forehead, not down the side of the face.
T o ensure that the reading always reflects the body temperature accurately , you need to take account of the following factors which may affect an accurate reading. Sweating: When a fever resolves, your body may bring its temperature down by sweating.
How to T ake a T emperature 1. Remove protective cap before use. Be sure lens is clean. If not, clean with cotton swab dipped in alcohol and let dry . Hold the ther- mometer as shown . 2. Gently position the probe flush (flat) on the center of the forehead, midway between the eyebrow and the hairline.
Normal Body T emperature (BT) Normal BT is not a single temperature, but a range of temperatures influ- enced by age, time of day , and measurement site. Y ou can establish your family’ s normal ranges by taking a number of temperatures from each mem- ber during a day and keeping records of them.
On a stable resting individual, temporal artery temperature is about the same as a rectal temperature, and approximately 0.8°F (0.4°C) higher than an opti- mum oral temperature.
Rectal T emperature Artifacts: Rectal temperature should only be con- sidered as a good approximation of core temperature when the patient’s thermal balance is stable, 8 and may be misleading after antipyretics, physical exercise, or other intervention that may change temperature quickly .
Cleaning the Instrument The T emporalScanner is an optical instrument. Like a camera or eye glasses, a dirty lens will distort the view . If the thermometer is unable to see the heat clearly , it will be unable to measure it accurately , resulting in low readings.
Changing the Battery Blinking battery icon with temperature displayed: battery is low but will still operate correctly . Replace soon. Blinking battery icon with 2 dashes: not enough energy in the battery to measure correct temperature. Replace battery .
Display Messages A flickering Scn on display is visible during measurement. At completion, releasing the button will display and lock temperature on the screen for 30 seconds. The target temperature measured is higher than 107.6°F (42°C). The target temperature measured is lower than 60°F (15.
Clinical Accuracy Meets ASTM E1965-98 and EN60601-1 standards for electronic and radiation thermometers to the extent applicable to thermometers which measure the surface of the skin over the temporal artery . Regulatory Approvals CE Mark to -0197, TUV , Declaration of Conformity-ISO 9003/08.
