Cleaning Instructions

Y

ou can clean your Digital Thermometer by wiping it with soap and water or

70% Isopropyl Alcohol.THE UNIT MUST NEVER BE SUBMERSED IN ANY

L

IQUID OR STERILIZED IN ANY WAY (GAS OR STEAM AUTOCLAVES).

Failure to follow these instructions will cause severe damage to your unit and

v

oid your warranty.

Switching Dual Scale

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

button 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.

How to Take Your Temperature

1. Clean 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.

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

Once the desired temperature is selected, press the POWER

button (the unit will beep) to activate the thermometer.This is the

LCD display test, which insures all parts of the display are func-

tioning properly.

The last measured temperature with an “m” will appear. If there

is no previous measurement, “Lo” °F(°C) will be displayed.

98.6°F(37.0°C) will briefly appear

Finally, a “Lo” with a flashing °F(°C) will appear in the display to

indicate that the thermometer is ready for measurement.

NOTE: If the room temperature is above 89.6°F(32.0°C), the room temperature will

display instead of the Lo.

General Care

1. The thermometer should only be used under the supervision of an adult.

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

3. Clean the thermometer 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 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 “ ” sym-

bol appears. Replace the battery with a LR41 or equivalent.

To replace the battery,

1. Remove screw and slide the battery cap away from the

unit.

2. Gently pull the battery tray out until it stops. Using a non-

metal pointed tool, carefully remove the battery and insert

the new battery with the positive (+) side facing up.

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

sure that the cap fits snugly to protect the battery com-

partment from moisture and replace screw.

NOTE: Please properly dispose of the battery away from

children and heat.

Taking an Oral Temperature

Approximate measurement time: 20 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 pocket

area.

NOTE: Drinking hot or cold fluids,

exercising, smoking or performing other

activities may raise or lower your

temperature. Therefore, it is important to

relax for approximately 5 minutes with your

mouth closed prior 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

o

F(°C) will stop flash-

ing and the thermometer will sound ten long beeps if the temperature is

below 100

o

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

o

F(37.8°C) the unit

will sound ten sets of three short beeps each.

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

after approximately nine minutes.

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 may affect the reading.

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

d

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

W

ith proper care and use, your thermometer will provide you with years of reliable

readings.

What is a “Normal”Temperature?

A

lthough the generally accepted “normal” temperature reading is 98.6

°

F

(37.0

°

C

),

temperature readings can vary from 97

°

F (36.1

°

C) to 99

°

F (37.2

°

C) and still may be

c

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

e

xercise, smoking, eating and drinking. Even time of day may influence your tem-

perature. For example, your temperature is lower in the morning than in the after-

n

oon. Other variations may be due to the location of the temperature

reading. While the oral temperature follows the guidelines previously described, a

r

ectal temperature is generally 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 MABIS Digital Thermometer

Taking an Axillary Temperature (under the arm)

A

pproximate measurement time: 30 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

t

hermometer 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 affected by the room’s air.

4

.

W

hen the peak temperature has been reached, the

o

F

(°C) will stop flash-

ing and the thermometer will sound ten long beeps if the temperature is

b

elow 100

o

F

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

o

F

(37.8°C) the unit

will sound ten sets of three short beeps each.

5

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

a

fter approximately nine minutes.

NOTE: Axillary temperatures are generally 1.0

°

F (0.5

°

C) lower than oral readings.

Taking a Rectal Temperature

Approximate measurement time: 15 seconds

NOTE: Rectal temperatures are an appropriate and reliable method for infants and

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

i

mpractical to take an oral or axillary temperature.

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

t

he tip.

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

3

.

W

hen the peak temperature has been reached, the

o

F

(°C) will stop flash-

ing and the thermometer will sound ten long beeps if the temperature is

b

elow 100

o

F

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

o

F

(37.8°C) the unit

will sound ten sets of three short beeps each.

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

after approximately nine minutes.

N

OTE: Rectal temperatures are generally 1.0

°

F

(0.5

°

C

) higher than oral readings.
