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 in the lower right of the display.

Replace the battery with a 1.55V, AG3 alkaline or SR41 silver

oxide type or equivalent.

and insert the new battery with the negative (–) side facing the

back side of the unit.

3. Carefully slide the battery cap back into place, making sure that the cap fits

snugly to protect the battery compartment from moisture.

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

Taking an Oral Temperature

Appr

o

ximate measurement time:

16 seconds

1. Using the diagram on the right, place the

probe tip under the tongue as near as

possible to the heat pocket.The diagram

also shows the temperature variables by

not placing the tip in the heat poc

k

et

area.

NOTE: Drinking hot or cold fluids,

exercising, smoking or performing other

activities may raise or lower your

temper

ature

.

Theref

ore

, it is impor

tant to

relax for approximately 5 minutes with your

mouth closed prior to taking a reading

2. The current temperature is shown and the

°

F will continue to flash during the

reading.

3. When the peak temperature has been reached, the

°

F will stop flashing and the

thermometer will sound four sets of five quick beeps.

4.

T

o tur

n the unit off, press the ON/OFF button. The unit will automatically shut off

after appro

ximately nine min

y affect the reading.

Cleaning Instructions

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

alcohol 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

1. Clean and disinfect the thermometer according 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.

AST 9-Second Flexible Tip

Digital Thermometer

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

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

care and use

, your thermometer will provide you with years of reliable readings.

Y

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

during temperature readings. It is enhanced with beeper and memory. The following

instr

uctions will cover your thermometer’s features in further detail.

What is a “Normal” Temperature?

Although the gener

ally accepted “normal” temperature reading is 98.6

°

F

,

temper

ature readings can vary from 97

°

F to 99

°

F and still ma

y 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 temperature. For

e

xample, your temperature is lower in the morning than in the afternoon. Other

v

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

temperature follows the guidelines previously described, a rectal temperature is

generally 1.0

°

F higher. Conversely, an axillary (under the arm) temperature will be

1.0

°

F lo

wer.

Features of your MABIS Digital Thermometer

T

aking an Axillary Temperature (under the arm)

Appr

oximate measurement time: 25 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

also insures the probe is not aff

ected by the room’s air.

4. When the peak temperature has been reached, the

°

F will stop flashing and the

thermometer will sound four sets of five quick beeps.

5.

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

after appro

ximately nine minutes.

NOTE: Axillary temperatures are generally 1.0

°

F lower than oral readings.

Taking a Rectal Temperature

Appr

oximate measurement time: 9 seconds

NO

TE:

Rectal temper

atures are an appropriate and reliable method for infants and

small 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

the tip

.

2.

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

3. When the peak temperature has been reached, the

o

F will stop flashing and the

ther

mometer will sound four sets of five quick beeps.

4.

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

po

wer down after approximately ten minutes.

NOTE: Rectal temperatures are generally 1.0

°

F higher than oral readings.

Using Disposable Probe Covers

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

contamination. Additional probe covers can be purchased from your MABIS Dealer

or with the order f

orm provided.
