are to be inserted with the correct polarity. The supply terminals are not to be short-circuited. Check that all contact surfaces are

clean and bright before installing batteries. DO NOT disassemble for any reason other than inserting or replacing batteries.

How to Measure Temperature 1. Turn Thermometer On and Prep Forehead

Press and release the ON/MEMORY button. Thermometer runs a brief self-check, then beeps and displays the ready screen. The unit will default to FOREHEAD

MODE. POSITION LIGHTS at front of unit come on automatically. Prep the forehead by making sure it is clear of hair and sweat. If child has recently been in a very

warm or very cold environment, wait a few minutes for their skin to adjust to room temperature before taking their temp.

The POSITION LIGHTS are LED lights and are meant to help you feel confident about how you are aiming and distancing the unit.

-AIMING: The SENSOR LENS points at the area of the forehead between the two red POSITION LIGHTS. The right spot to aim the SENSOR LENS is

2. Position Thermometer

at the base of the forehead, just above the eyebrows. So, when properly positioned, the LOWER POSITION LIGHT should be between the eyebrows.

-DISTANCE: For accurate temperatures, the unit should be within 1.5 inches (4 cm) of the forehead. When the unit is 1.5 inches from the forehead,

the UPPER POSITIONING LIGHT will be directly above the LOWER POSITIONING LIGHT (vertically.) When closer or farther away, the lights move

away from each other in opposite directions.

Hint: If a child is uncomfortable seeing the thermometer coming toward his face, try turning the thermometer upside-down.

The POSITIONING LIGHTS work the same when the thermometer is upside down. 3. Measure Temperature

Once unit is positioned, press and hold the READ TRIGGER button on the rear of the thermometer for about 1 second or until the screen lights up, displays

temperature reading, and beeps (if not in mute mode.) 4. Fever Reading Indicator

The unit gives one long beep when temp is in normal range. Thermometer gives additional beeps and the fever bar lights up when elevated temp is detected.

NOTE: High, prolonged fever requires medical attention, especially for young children. Please contact your physician. Fever chart included.

5. Wait timer &

After a reading is complete, the WAIT icon will flash for 5 seconds. After those 5 seconds are complete, the unit will return to READY mode. Thermometer beeps

Auto Shut-Off and shuts off automatically after about 30 seconds in READY mode.

This thermometer can also be used to take no-touch temperatures of liquids like bath water and milk/formula. Unit defaults into FOREHEAD MODE every time
