Guidelines for temple measurements This thermometer is designed to
measure the temperature at the forehead, in proximity to the temple area
between the end of the eyebrow and the hairline. Do not place the
thermometer on scar tissue, skin disorder, open sores or abrasions or
patients in trauma. Consult your physician when using drug therapies
that may elevate skin temperature in the forehead. Do not use skin
exposed to direct sunlight, fireplace heat, air conditioner or fan air
flow, or hot/cold compress therapies. Wait at least one minute between
measurements to allow the unit sensor to readjust to room temperature.
If the thermometer has been stored in an excessively cold or warm
environment, allow the thermometer to adjust to the ambient room
temperature before use. Performance and operation of this unit may be
compromised if operated outside of the specified temperature and
humidity operating ranges. Operating instructions: 1.Press and release
the power button to activate the thermometer. 2.The unit will beep and
the thermometer will perform a self-test, showing all the symbols on the
display. 3.The last measurement taken will shown on the display.
4.Gently place the probe in the center of the temple area between the
end of the eyebrow and the hairline. Maintain firm contact with the
skin, hold the thermometer to ensure reliable results. 5.Do not press
the power button again. The measurements will start automatically once
the probe is in place and will take approximately 6-8 seconds. A running
circle will appear on the display indicating the reading is in
progress. 6. The unit will sound one long beep when the measurement is
complete and the reading will appear on the display. 7. To turn the unit
off, simply press the power button. The unit will automatically
shut-off after approximately one minute. Note: if you take another
measurement before 1 minute has elapsed, the device will perform a 10 to
0 countdown to allow the device to reset for a new measurement. Do not
try to measure during this countdown. If you attempt to measure during
the countdown time, the device will display the previous result, beep 8
