2. Firmly push the START button. The thermometer will beep and the
display will read: “188.8°FM”. This is a function check indicating the
unit is working properly. If a previous reading is stored in memory,
the thermometer will display the last temperature for three seconds.
The night-glow feature automatically lights up when the thermometer
is turned on.
3. The °F or °C symbol will flash when the unit is ready to measure
temperature. “ ❑❑” indicates a low battery. Replace battery (see
“Changing the Battery” section) for accurate measurement. An “ERR”
message in the window indicates your unit is not functioning proper-
ly. Ensure that the batteries are installed correctly and review instruc-
tions for proper operation.
4. When peak temperature is reached, the °F or °C symbol will stop
flashing, and the thermometer will beep repeatedly. It is not necessary
to hear the beep to ensure the peak temperature has been reached.
When the °F or °C symbol stops flashing and the display reads a
consistent temperature, the peak temperature has been reached.
5. Read and record the temperature and time for reference. The reading
will automatically be stored in the memory until another reading is
taken or the batteries are removed from the thermometer.
6. Push the START button to turn the unit off. If you do not turn the
unit off, it will shut off automatically in approximately 10 minutes.

MEASURING SENSOR
❑ Approximate measuring time is 30 seconds. Opening of mouth or
improper placement of the probe tip can result in longer read time.
UN DERARM (AXILLARY) USE
❑ From a medical point of view, this method will
always give an inaccurate reading and should not be
used if a precise measurement is required.
❑ Wipe underarm with a dry towel.
❑ Place probe tip in armpit and bring arm down against
the body. The probe should be pointing upward parallel to the arm.
❑ Approximate measuring time is 30 seconds or longer depending on
placement of the probe and closure of the arm against the body.

Temperature readings vary among individuals. A normal temperature refers
to each individual’s average temperature while they are well. Normal aver-
age temperatures range from 97°F/36.1°C to 100°F/37.7°C when taken
orally. Oral, underarm, and rectal temperatures vary by approximately 1°F
(0.5°C). A rectal temperature is considered your real or “core” body tem-
perature. A rectal temperature is 1°F/0.5°C higher than an oral reading and
an underarm temperature is 1°F/0.5°C lower than an oral reading.
