without exception!

• The thermometer contains small parts (battery, etc.) that can be swallowed by children.
Keep the thermometer out of the reach of children.

• Damage may occur if the thermometer is dropped or struck against a hard surface.

• Remove the battery when the thermometer will not be used for 3 months or more.

2. SWITCHING ON

Press the on/off button
on the LCD display
functioning correctly. If available the last correctly measured temperature is displayed

. A short beep-signal sounds,the device is on. All symbols show

➌

for a few seconds as a means of checking that the thermometer is

➋

indicated by the “M”symbol. After this the device is ready for measurement indicated by a
flashing “°C”symbol and a “Lo”indication at an ambient temperature of less than 32°C.
2a. For changing between Fahrenheit and Celsius indication:Keep the on/off button
pressed for approximately 4 seconds after switching on the unit.

3. HOW TO USE THE THERMOMETER

Position the sensor-tip
armpit. If the signaling tone (beep-beep-beep-beep) sounds 4 times and the «°C» is no

in the preferred place of measurement – mouth, rectum or

➊

longer flashing,this means that the measurement is finished and that the thermometer is
ready for reading.

In the mouth (oral)

Position the thermometer under the tongue. The measuring sensor must be in good
contact with the tissue.Close your mouth and breathe evenly through the nose to prevent
the measurement from being influenced by inhaled/exhaled air. Approx.measuring time:
1 minute.Normal temperature between 35.7 °C and 37.3 °C.

In the anus (rectal)

This is the most reliable measuring method and is especially appropriate for infants and
small children.Carefully insert the tip of the thermometer 2 to 3 cm into the anal aperture.
Approx.measuring time 1 minute.
Normal temperature between 36.2 °C and 37.7 °C.

In the armpit (axillary)

From a medical viewpoint, this method will always provide inaccurate readings, and
should not be used if precise measurements are required. Approx. measuring time:

1.5 minutes. Normal temperature between 35.2 °C and 36.7 °C.

4. CLEANING AND DISINFECTING

OMRON recommends to wipe the device with damp cloth. For disinfection, 70%
Ethanol or Isopropyl alcohol can be used. Do not attempt to disinfect the sensing
section of the thermometer by immersing in alcohol or in hot water (water over 50°C).
Do not submerge deeper than 15 cm and longer than 30 minutes.

Caution

The tip of the thermometer contains Nickel.
