Cleaning Instructions

B

efore and after each use, clean the thermometer with a soft cloth and 70% isopropyl

a

lcohol diluted with water, or wash with COLD soapy water. An intact unit can be

submersed in water or alcohol. However, do not soak for an extended period of time.

1. The unit must never be sterilized by boiling, gas or steam autoclaves.

2. The use of any other solution or cleaning method beyond the above mentioned

may result in reliability problems with the thermometer and void your warranty.

How to Take Your Temperature

NOTE: Measurement time may vary based on the selected site.

1. Clean and disinfect the thermometer according to the instructions provided.

2. Apply a disposable probe cover to the clean, dry thermometer.

3. Determine whether the measurement site will be oral, rectal or underarm.

Switching Dual Scale

NOTE: To change between Celsius and Fahrenheit readings, hold the POWER

button down for 2 seconds until the “Lo” with an “M” displays and changes between

°F and °C. Press the POWER button again to turn the thermometer off.

Once the desired temperature is selected, press the POWER button (the

unit will beep and the backlight will turn on for about 3 seconds) to activate

the thermometer. This is the LCD display test, which ensures all parts of

the display are functioning properly.

The thermometer will display the last reading taken, followed by a self-test

temperature 98.6°F(37.0°C) for about 1 second. The display will show “Lo”

with a flashing °F(°C) indicating the thermometer is ready for measurement.

NOTE: If the temperature is less than 89.6°F(32.00°C), the LCD displays

“Lo” °F(°C). If the temperature is greater than 110°F(43.00°), the LCD

displa

General Care

1. T

he thermometer should only be used under the superv

ision of an adult.

2. Do not walk, run or talk during temperature taking.

3

. Clean the therm

ometer before and after each use.

4. Store the unit in the protective case when not in use.

5. Do not bite the probe.

6. Do not store the unit where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, dust or humidity.

Avoid extreme temperatures.

7. Dropping or subjecting your thermometer to strong shocks should be avoided.

8. Do not attempt to disassemble the unit, except to replace the battery.

9. If ERR displays and measurement is not attainable, the unit must be replaced.

NOTE: Performance of the device may be degraded if: operated outside of stated

temperature and humidity range; stored outside of stated temperature and humidity

range; thermometer undergoes mechanical shock (drop); patient temperature is

below ambient temperature.

Changing the Battery

The battery in your digital thermometer needs to be replaced

when the “ ” symbol appears on the top of the display. Replace

the battery with a LR1130(AG10) or equivalent.

To replace the battery,

1. Remove the battery cover from the back of the thermometer

using a coin or small tool. Twist the cover counter-clockwise

and gently pry up.

2. Carefully remove the battery and insert the new battery with

the positive (+) side facing up.

3. Replace the battery cover and match up the arrows. Using a coin or small tool,

carefully twish the cover clockwise until it stops.

NOTE: Please properly dispose of the battery away from small children and heat.

Taking an Oral Temperature

Approximate measurement time: 8-10 seconds

1. Using the diagram on the right, place the

probe tip under the tongue as near as

possib

le to the heat pocket. The diagram

also shows the temperature variables by

not placing the tip in the heat pocket

area.

NOTE: Drinking hot or cold fluids,

exercising, smoking or performing other

activities ma

y r

aise or lo

w

er your

temperature. Therefore, it is important to

relax for approximately 5 minutes with your

mouth closed pr

ior to taking a reading.

2. The current temperature is shown and the °F(°C) will continue to flash during the

reading.

3. When the peak temperature has been reached, the backlight will illuminate and

the °F(°C) will stop flashing. The thermometer will sound ten long beeps if the

temper

ature is belo

w 100

°

F(37.8°C). If the temperature is above 100°F(37.8°C)

the unit will sound ten sets of three short beeps.

4. To turn the unit off, press the ON/OFF button. The unit will automatically shut off

after appro

ximately ten min

utes

.

NOTE: The mouth must remain closed during the measurement for the most

accurate reading. Opening the mouth could result in an extended measurement time

and ma

y aff

ect the reading.

8-Second Ultra Quick Read

Digital Thermometer

w

ith Flexible Tip

Thank you for purchasing a MABIS Digital Thermometer. Please read the following

instructions to achieve the most accurate temperatures and safe operation. With

p

roper care and use, your thermometer will provide you with years of reliable read-

i

ngs.

Your thermometer features a comfortable, soft, flexible tip, which conforms to the

m

outh during temperature readings. It is enhanced with beeper, memory and fever

a

larm.The following instructions will cover your thermometer’s features in further

detail.

What is a “Normal”Temperature?

A

lthough the generally accepted “normal” temperature reading is 98.6

°

F

(37.0°C),

t

emperature readings can vary from 97

°

F

(36.1°C) to 99

°

F

(37.2°C) and still may be

considered “normal”. Variations in temperature can be attributed to activities such as

exercise, smoking, eating and drinking. Even time of day may influence your temper-

a

ture. For example, your temperature is lower in the morning than in the afternoon.

Other variations may be due to the location of the temperature reading.While the oral

temperature follows the guidelines previously described, a rectal temperature is gen-

e

rally 1.0

°

F

(0.5°C) higher. Conversely, an axillary (under the arm) temperature will be

1

.0

°

F

(0.5°C) lower.

Features of Your Digital Thermometer

T

aking an Axillary Temperature (under the arm)

A

pproximate measurement time: 10-20 seconds

1

. Wipe the underarm with a dry towel.

2

. Place the probe tip under the arm so the tip is touching the skin with the

thermometer perpendicular to the body.

3

. Position the arm across the chest so the probe tip is well covered by the arm. This

a

lso ensures the probe is not affected by the room’s air.

4. When the peak temperature has been reached, the backlight will illuminate and

the °F(°C) will stop flashing. The thermometer will sound ten long beeps if the

t

emperature is below 100°F(37.8°C). If the temperature is above 100°F(37.8°C)

t

he unit will sound ten sets of three short beeps.

5. To turn the unit off, press the ON/OFF button. The unit will automatically shut off

a

fter approximately ten minutes.

N

OTE:

A

xillary temperatures are generally 1.0°F(0.5°C) lower than oral readings.

Taking a Rectal Temperature

A

pproximate measurement time: 8 seconds

N

OTE:

R

ectal temperatures are an appropriate and reliable method for infants and

s

mall children. Otherwise, this method should only be used when it is impossible or

impractical to take an oral or axillary temperature.

1

. After applying the disposable probe cover, apply a water-soluble lubricant to

t

he tip; do not use petroleum jelly.

2. Gently insert the probe a MAXIMUM of 1/2” into the rectum.

3. When the peak temperature has been reached, the backlight will illuminate and

t

he °F(°C) will stop flashing. The thermometer will sound ten long beeps if the

temperature is below 100°F(37.8°C). If the temperature is above 100°F(37.8°C)

the unit will sound ten sets of three short beeps.

4

. To turn the unit off, press the ON/OFF button. The unit will automatically power

d

own after approximately ten minutes.

NOTE: Rectal temperatures are generally 1.0°F(0.5°C) higher than oral readings.

Using Disposable Probe Covers

It is recommended to use the enclosed disposable probe covers to prevent cross

c

ontamination. Additional probe covers can be purchased from your retailer or with

t

he order form provided.
