Manual

One-Second Ear Thermometer

How does this product work?

This ear thermometer is a delicate and high-tech electronic

device designed to measure body temperature. This unit

provides accurate and reliable temperature readings by detecting

infrared heat from the eardrum and surrounding tissue.

The thermometer takes 512 scans of the eardrum and

surrounding tissue in just one second and displays the

calculated temperature. The temperature displayed represents

the measured ear canal temperature converted to the more

familiar oral equivalent. This is performed using a mathematical

adjustment of the ear canal temperature. Note that this reading

will not necessarily be the same as a temperature measured

orally at the same time.

When consulting a physician, it is important to communicate

that the temperature reading was taken in the ear and

converted to an oral equivalent.

What is normal body temperature? What is a fever?

Normal body temperature is a range that varies from person

to person, by age, and throughout the day.

The average normal body temperature is 98.6˚F (37˚C).

Fever is defined as a body temperature elevated over an

individual’s normal body temperature.

It is important to determine each person’s normal body

temperature in order to properly assess whether or not a fever

is actually present. This range can easily be determined by

tracking temperatures on a consistent basis, using the same

ear and measuring at the same time each day.

This ear thermometer converts the ear temperature to an oral

equivalent and meets industry standards regarding temperature

accuracy. For temperatures between 96.8˚F - 102.2˚F

(36.0˚C - 39.0˚C), it is accurate to +/- 0.4°F (+/- 0.2°C).

See “Product Specifications” (p.17) for more information.

What is the Fever Alarm?

The Fever Alarm is a unique feature that will alert the user

anytime a temperature reading is 100°F (37.8˚C) or greater with

a visual notice on the display (a frowning face) and a triple

beep audio alert (visual alert only in memory mode). For

readings at or above this temperature it is LIKEL

Y that a fever is

present.

Note: A temperature reading below 100°F (37.8˚C) does not

mean that a fever is not present. Likewise, a temperature

greater than or equal to 100°F (37.8˚C) does not guarantee

the presence of a fever.

I just took my temperature but what is actually considered a 'healthy' body temperature? Verified

This partially depends on the body part where the temperature was taken. The following can be considered healthy: Forehead 35,8 to 37,6 °C, Ear 36 to 37,8°C, rectally 36,3 to 37,8°C and orally 36 to 37,4°C.

What parts of the body are best to measure body temperature? Verified

This depends on the thermometer. Some thermometers are designed for use on specific parts of the body. With a regular thermometer, rectal usage is the fastest and most accurate way to measure body temperature.
