Considerations for Individual Being Screened:
1. Ensure individual does not participate in rigorous activity prior to the temperature
measurement.
2. Remove hair, perspiration, make-up or clothing from forehead.
3. The following physiological variations in temperature must be considered when
evaluating the temperature results:
• Temperature increases by 0.5°C ( 1°F) between 6:00am and 3:00pm
• A woman’s body temperature is approximately 0.2°C (0.4°F) higher than a
man’s body temperature.
• A woman’s body temperature varies in accordance with the ovarian cycle. It
rises by 0.5°C (1°F) in the second half of the cycle and during the early stages
of pregnancy.
• When sitting, the body temperature is approximately 0.3°C to 0.4°C ( 0.6°F
to 0.72°F) lower.
• The temperature of the human body varies throughout the day. It can also
be influenced by numerous external factors such as age, sex, type and
thickness of skin.
Helpful Tips for Reliable Results
Environmental Operating Conditions:
• Avoid extreme room temperature (too hot or cold).
• Avoid air flux (i.e. fan, heater, air conditioning).
• Whenever there is a significant change in the ambient temperature of the
screening room, allow device to acclimate for 10 to 15 minutes before using.
the temperature. Be sure to remove any obstacle which could alter the
measurement, such as hair, perspiration, etc.
• If the result is the same as the CLINICAL THERMOMETER, The Non-Contact
Forehead Infrared Thermometer is properly set and ready to use.
• If the result is NOT the same as the CLINICAL THERMOMETER, adjust
the temperature on The Non-Contact Infrared Forehead Thermometer, by
subtracting or adding degrees as appropriate.
• To add or subtract degrees, press the MODE button for 2 seconds. Until the
LCD screen displays
F1
. Press the MEM button until
F4
displays on the LCD
screen. Press the MODE button until the appropriate offset value is reached.
The offset value range is -3° to 3°C (-5.4°F to 5.4°F). Save the offset value by
pressing the MEM button until the Home Screen is displayed.
• To verify the calibration is complete, re-take the temperature of the same
individual using the Non-Contact Infrared Forehead Thermometer.
• Note: Whenever a clinical thermometer and the Non-Contact Forehead
Infrared Thermometer produce different results, or if there is a substantial
change in environmental temperature, repeat the calibration steps.
