2. Important Safety Instructions
• This instrument may only be used for the purposes described in
this booklet. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage
caused by incorrect application.
• Always use the thermometer with a new undamaged Probe Cover
for each measurement to prevent infection. Only Microlife branded
probe covers can ensure that you get an accurate measurement.
•Never immerse this instrument in water or other liquids. For
cleaning please follow the instructions in the «Cleaning
and Disinfecting» section.
• Do not use the instrument if you think it is damaged or notice
anything unusual.
• Never open the instrument.
• Earwax in the ear canal may cause a lower temperature reading.
Therefore it is important to ensure the subject's ear canal is clean.
• This instrument comprises sensitive components and must be
treated with caution. Observe the storage and operating conditi-
ons described in the «Technical Specifications» section.
• Protect it as well as the probe covers from:
- extreme temperatures
- impact and dropping
- contamination and dust
- direct sunlight
- heat and cold
• If the instrument is not going to be used for a prolonged period
the batteries should be removed.
• Ensure that children do not use the instrument unsupervised;
some parts are small enough to be swallowed.

4. How this Ear Thermometer Measures Ear Temperature
This thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from the eardrum
and the surrounding tissue. This energy is collected through the lens
and converted to a temperature value. The measured reading obtained
directly from the eardrum (Tympanic Membrane) ensures the most accu-
rate ear temperature.
Measurements taken from the surrounding tissue of the ear canal gene-
rate lower readings and may result in misdiagnosis of fever.
To avoid an inaccurate measurement:
• First slip on a probe cover.
• Switch on the thermometer by pressing the O/I button.
• After one beep is heard (and the temperature scale icon is flashing),
straighten the ear canal by gently pulling the middle of the ear back
and up.
• Place the probe firmly into the ear canal, press the START button
and keep the probe in the ear until the thermometer beeps to
signal the completion of the measurement.
This thermometer has been clinically tested and proven to be
safe and accurate when used in accordance with its opera-
ting instruction manual.

7. Directions for Use
Important: Prior to every measurement, fit a new undamaged Probe
Cover on the measuring probe. Failure to do so may result in incorrect
temperature measurement.
1. Press the O/I button. The display is activated
to show all segments for 2 seconds.
2. The last measurement reading will automati-
cally be shown on the display for 2 seconds
with the «M» icon.
3. When the «°C» or «°F» icon is flashing, a
beep sound is heard and the thermometer is
ready for measurement.
4. Straighten the ear canal by pulling the ear up and back to give a
clear view of the eardrum.
• For children under 1 year; pull the ear straight
back.
• For children of 1 year to adult; pull the ear up
and back.
Also refer to the short instructions at the front.
5. While gently pulling the ear, insert the probe
snugly into the ear canal (max. 1 sec.) and
immediately press the START button.
Release the button and wait for the beep
sound. This is the indication that confirms
the end of measurement.
6. Remove the thermometer from the ear canal.
The display shows the measured temperature.
NOTE:
To ensure accurate readings, wait at least 30 sec. after 3-5
continuous measurements.
8
Replace the probe cover after each measurement. To do this, please
follow the instruction in point 6 «How to Reload a New Probe Cover».
• 10 short beeps and a red LCD backlight alert the patient that
he/she may have a temperature above 37.5 °C.
• For an infant, it is best to have the child lying flat with his/her head
sideways so the ear is facing upwards. For an older child or adult,
it is best to stand behind and slightly to the side of the patient.
• Always take the temperature in the same ear, since the tempera-
ture readings may be different from ear to ear.
• Wait for a few minutes to take the ear temperature after sleeping.
• In the following situations it is recommended that three tempera-
tures in the same ear be taken and the highest one taken as the
reading:
1) New born infants in the first 100 days.
2) Children under three years of age with a compromised immune
system and for whom the presence or absence of fever is critical.
3) When the user is learning how to use the thermometer for the
first time until he/she has familiarized himself/herself with the
instrument and obtains consistent readings.
4) If the measurement is surprisingly low.
8. Changing from Fahrenheit to Celsius and vice-versa
The thermometer can display temperature measurements in either
Fahrenheit or Celsius. To switch the display between °C and °F,
simply turn OFF the unit, press and hold the START button for 5
seconds until «---» and the flashing «°C» or «°F» icon is shown on
the LCD. Switch the measurement scale between °C and °F by pres-
sing the START button again. When the measurement scale has been
chosen, wait for 5 seconds and the unit will enter the ready for mea-
suring mode automatically.
