Handleiding Mabis 60-Second Digital Thermometer

Handleiding

TAKING A RECTAL TEMPERATURE

Rectal temperatures should only be taken when it is impossible or impractical to

take an oral or axillary temperature. THE THERMOMETER TIP SHOULD BE

INSERTED A MAXIMUM OF 1/2” INTO THE RECTUM. The temperature reading

should take approximately sixty seconds. The

o

F will continue to flash during the

reading of the temperature. When the peak temperature has been reached, the

o

F will stop flashing and the thermometer will sound four long beeps if the tem-

perature is below 99.5

o

F. If the temperature is above 99.5

o

F the unit will sound

four sets of three short beeps each. T

o turn the unit off, press the POWER but-

ton. The unit will automatically power down after approximately ten minutes.

REMEMBER: Rectal temperatures are generally

1.0

o

F

higher than oral readings.

USING DISPOSABLE PROBE CO

VERS

It is recommended to use disposable probe covers in order to prevent cross

contamination. Probe covers can be purchased from your MABIS dealer or with

the order form below.

CHANGING THE BATTERY

The battery in your digital thermometer needs to

be replaced when “ ” appears in the lower right

of the display. Replace the battery with an LR41

alkaline or SR41 silver oxide type. To replace the

battery, slide the battery cap away from the unit.

Remove the battery using a non-metal tool. Insert

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

cap back into place.

PARTS OF YOUR DIGITAL THERMOMETER

BODY TEMPERATURE

Body temperature can vary from 97

o

F to 99

o

F

. The generally accepted “normal”

temperature is 98.6

o

F. Usually your temperature is lower in the morning than in

the afternoon. Normal temperature varies according to the location of the tem-

perature reading. While the oral temperature follows the guidelines previously

described, a rectal temperature is generally 1.0

o

F higher. Conversely, an axillary

(under the arm) temperature will be 1.0

o

F lower

GENERAL CARE AND USE

The thermometer should be held during use. The patient should be seated or

lying down. TEMPERA

TURES SHOULD ONLY BE TAKEN UNDER THE SUPER-

VISION OF AN ADULT.

You can clean your Digital Thermometer by wiping it with soap and water or 70%

Isopropyl Alcohol. THE UNIT MUST NEVER BE SUBMERSED IN ANY LIQUID OR

STERILIZED IN ANY W

AY (GAS OR STEAM AUTOCLAVES). Failure to follow

these instructions will cause severe damage to your unit and void your warranty.

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 thermometer tip.

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 ERR displays and measurement is not attainable, the unit must be replaced.

NOTE: Performance of the device may be degraded if: operated outside of the stated

termperature and humidity range; stored outside of stated temperature and humidity

range; thermometer undergoes mechanical shock (drop); patient temperature is below

ambient temperature.

OPERATING YOUR DIGITAL THERMOMETER

Press the POWER button to activate the thermometer. The dig-

ital display will show the following and the thermometer will

beep.

This is the LCD display test. This insures all parts of the display

are functioning properly.

By continuing to hold the button down, the last measured tem-

perature will be displayed until the button is released.

Once the button is released or if no reading is stored, an L with a flashing

o

F will

appear in the display followed by a brief flash of 97.7

o

F followed by an L with a

flashing

o

F to indicate that the thermometer is ready for measurement.

NOTE: If the room temperature is above 89.6

o

F, the room temperature will dis-

play instead of the L.

TAKING AN ORAL TEMPERATURE

Using the diagram on the right, place the ther-

mometer tip under the tongue as near as possible to

the heat pocket. The diagram also shows the tem-

perature variables by not placing the tip in the heat

pocket area. The temperature reading should take

approximately sixty seconds. The

o

F will continue to

flash during the reading of the temperature. When

the peak temperature has been reached, the

o

F will

stop flashing and the thermometer will sound four

long beeps if the temperature is below 99.5

o

F. If the

temperature is above 99.5

o

F the unit will sound four

sets of three short beeps each. To turn the unit off, press the POWER button. The

unit will automatically power down after approximately ten minutes. NOTE: The

mouth must remain closed during the measurement to insure accurate readings.

T

AKING AN AXILLARY TEMPERA

TURE (under the arm)

The thermometer tip should be placed under the arm so the tip is touching the

skin. Hold the thermometer parallel to the body and position the arm on the chest

so the probe tip is well covered by the arm. This insures the thermometer tip is

not affected by the room air

. The temperature reading should take approximate

-

ly sixty seconds. The

o

F will continue to flash during the reading of the

tempera

-

ture. When the peak temperature has been reached, the

o

F

will stop flashing and

the thermometer will sound four long beeps if the temperature is below

99.5

o

F

. If

the temperature is above

99.5

o

F

the unit will sound four sets of three short beeps

each. T

o turn the unit off

, press the POWER button. The unit will automatically

power down after approximately ten minutes. REMEMBER: Axillary temperatures
