Safety Precautions
Warning
Use of this thermometer is not intended as a substitute for
consultation with your physician. Please consult your doctor
if you have any doubt about the temperature reading.
For consumer use only, not for professional use.
Keep the thermometer out of reach of children. For
accidental swallowing of the battery or other components,
please contact emergency services immediately.
Batteries must not be thrown into an open re or short
circuited.
Caution
(1) Measurements
1. Thermometer readings should be regarded as a reference.
Do not attempt self-diagnostics or self-treatment using the
temperature readings. Please seek professional medical
advice when necessary.
2. There is no absolute standard for human body
temperature. Knowing your own normal body temperature
range is important to accurately determine if you have a
fever.
3. Make sure that the forehead of the subject is free from
sweat, cosmetics, dirt, or grease before measuring.
4. Patients should not drink, eat, or be physically active
before/while taking a reading. Wait 30 minutes before
taking a measurement. Temperature readings taken when
a body is in a state of stable equilibrium is more accurate
and useful as a reference.
5. Do not take temperature measurement over scar tissue,
open sores or abrasions.
6. Do not measure body temperature from scar tissues on the
forehead as such tissues will aect temperature conduction
of the body.
7. If there is a temperature dierence between the
thermometer storage area and the new ambient
environment around the subject, please let the
thermometer sit within the new environment for 30
minutes before taking the measurement.
8. Do not measure body temperature immediately after
consuming a drug that raises body temperature.
Temperature readings taken at this time will not be
accurate.
9. It is normal for readings taken from continuous
measurements to uctuate within a small range. During
continuous measurements, the subject’s body temperature
may be transmitted to the thermometer, aecting
1
measurement accuracy. We recommend taking only up to
3 continuous readings within a short period.
10. Do not directly face the sun or an air outlet of an air
conditioning or radiator device during the measurement
as this will cause changes to the forehead temperature.
Measurements should be taken in a stable environment
where possible.
11. Do not measure body temperature in an environment
with strong EM interference (examples include places
close to a working microwave, induction cooker, or
cellphone in-use) as EM interference may cause errors in
the reading or even device failure.
12. This product should be considered a personal device.
Clean and sanitize the product properly to prevent cross
contamination.
13. To clean a dirty thermometer probe, gently swipe the
probe using a cotton swab dipped in 75% alcohol. Let the
cleaned thermometer sit for at least 15 minutes before
taking more measurements.
14. This infrared thermometer meets requirements
established in ASTM Standard (E1965-98) Except of clause
5.2.2. It displays subject’s temperature over a range of 89.6
℉~109.2℉. Full responsibility for the conformance of this
product to the standard is assumed by (manufacturer:

Body temperature
Body temperature varies from person to person and
uctuates during the course of the day. For this reason, it is
suggested to know one's normal, healthy forehead
temperature to correctly determine the temperature.
Body temperature runs approximately from 95.9°F to100°F
(35.5℃-37.8℃). To determine if one has a fever, compare the
temperature detected with the person's normal temperature.
A rise over the reference body temperature of 1°F(1℃) or
more is generally an indication of fever.
Dierent measurement sites(rectal, axillary, oral, frontal,
auricular) will give dierent readings. Therefore it is wrong to
compare the measurement taken from dierent sites.
