INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the ReliOn Ultra Compact Ear Thermometer. This ear thermometer offers a safe, accurate and quick temperature reading from the ear canal. This thermometer senses the infrared heat from the ear drum (tympanic membrane). No need to worry about broken glass or mercury hazards. An ear temperature is not affected by talking, eating or drinking. These factors do affect an oral temperature. In one second it changes the heat measured into an equivalent temperature. The unit is easy to use for children and adults. Temperatures can be taken when a child is sleeping. We recommend you practice taking a temperature with the ReliOn Ultra Compact Ear Thermometer on each member of your family when you are healthy. This way you will be confident in your technique when using the ear thermometer on a sick family member. Contact your doctor if you have any questions regarding specific temperatures.

(3) When F or C symbol flashes - insert lens into ear. Gently pull back the ear lobe before inserting for best results. Tugging on the earlobe provides a direct line to the eardrum to maximize the accuracy of results. (4) Listen for ready beep (1 beep); an O symbol will appear indicating its reading. Angle is correct; ready for measurement. (5) Press button again (While unit is placed in the ear) 4 beeps means measurement is complete. (6) Remove probe from ear.

- You can measure consecutively up to three times. If you are going to measure more than this, wait ten minutes, then measure again (This is because the measurement may be inaccurate due to the probe warmed by body heat.). - The thermometer will automatically turn off about 1 minute after a temperature has been taken. There is no button to turn the power off manually.
