MEDTECH Handy TMP 02 Digital Thermometer User Manual

Read instructions thoroughly before using a digital thermometer.
Choking Hazard: Thermometer cap and battery may be fatal if swallowed. Do not allow children to use this device without parental supervision.
Do not use a thermometer in ear. The designed use is for oral, rectal, and armpit (axilla) readings only.
Do not place the thermometer battery near extreme heat as it may explode.
Note: Use of the probe cover may result in a 0.1 C (0.20F) discrepancy from actual temperature.
Remove the battery from the device when not in operation for a long time.
The use of temperature readings for self-diagnosis is dangerous. Consult your doctor for the interpretation of results. Self-diagnosis may lead to the worsening of existing disease conditions.
Do not attempt measurements when the thermometer is wet as inaccurate readings may result.
Do not bite the thermometer. Doing so may lead to breakage and/or injury.
Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the thermometer. Doing so may result in inaccurate readings.
After each use, disinfect the thermometer especially in case the device is used by more than one person.
Do not force the thermometer into the rectum. Stop insertion and abort the measurement when pain is present. Failure to do so may lead to injury.
Do not use thermometer orally after being used rectally.
For children who are two years old or younger, please do not use the devices orally.
If the unit has been stored at temperatures over 5 C — 400C(41 OF— 104 T) , leave it in 5 (41 OF—104 T) ambient temperature for about 15 minutes before using it.

PRECAUTION

The performance of the device may be degraded should one or more of the following occur:
- Operation outside the manufacturers stated temperature and humidity range.
- Storage outside the manufacturers stated temperature and humidity range.
- Mechanical shock (for example, drop test) or degraded sensor.
- Patient temperature is below ambient temperature.
Portable and mobile RF communications can affect the device. The device needs special pre-cautions regarding EMC according to the EMC information provided in the accompany documents.

SYMBOL EXPLANATION

SPECIFICATIONS

ºC/ºF SWITCHABLE
Temperature readings are available in the Celsius or Fahrenheit scale (C/ OF; located in the upper right corner of LCD.) With the unit off, press and hold the On/Off Button for approximately 2 seconds to change the current setting.

DIRECTIONS

Press the Button next to LCD display. A tone will sound as the screen shows 188.8 ºC followed by last recorded temperature. After showing the self-test temperature, the thermometer is now in the testing mode.
Position thermometer in desired location (mouth, rectum, or armpit.)
- Oral Use: Place thermometer under tongue as indicated by the” ” position shown in Figure 2. Close your mouth and breathe evenly through the nose to prevent the measurement from being influenced by inhaled/exhaled air. Normal temperature between 35.7 ºC and 37.3 ºC (96.3 ºF and 99.1 ºF).
- Rectal Use: Lubricate silver probe tip with petroleum jelly for easy insertion. Gently insert the sensor approximately lcm (less than 1/2″ ) into the rectum. Normal temperature between 36.20C and 37.7 oc (97.2 OF and 99.9 OF).
- Armpit Use: Wipe the armpit dry. Place probe in the armpit and keep arm pressed firmly at the side. From a medical viewpoint, this method will always provide inaccurate readings, and should not be used if precise measurements are required. Normal temperature between 35.2 ºc and 36.7 ºc (95.4 ºF and 98.1 ºF).
The degree sign flashes throughout the testing process. When flashing stops an alarm will beep for approximately 10 seconds. The measured reading will appear on the LCD simultaneously. The minimum measurement time until the signaling tone (beep) must be maintained without exception. The measurement continues even after the buzzer notification. So that in order to achieve better body temperature measurement results, recommended to keep the probe in the mouth and rectum for about 2 minutes, or in the armpit for about 5 minutes regardless of the beep sound, and at least 30 seconds measurement interval should be maintained.
Note: Normally the buzzes are ” Bi—Bi-Bi-B i-“; Alarmb keeps opera pillow hence temperature reaches 37.8 oc (100 OF) or higher, and t he buzzes are ” Bi-Bi-Bi–—- BI-BI-BI — Bi-Bi-Bi”
To prolong battery life, press the On/Off Button to turn the unit off after testing is complete. If no action is taken, the unit will automatically shut off after around 10 minutes.

TROUBLESHOOTING

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

Replace the battery when appears in the lower right corner of LCD display.
Pull the battery cover off as shown in Figure 3.
Gently pull out plastic circuit board with battery chamber approximately 1 cm (slightly less than 1/2 “.) (See Figure 4)
Use a pointed object such as a pen to remove the old battery. Discard battery lawfully. Replace with new 1.5V DC button type LR41 or SR41,UCC392, or equivalent. Be sure battery is installed with “+” polarity facing up. (See Figure 5)
Slide the battery chamber back into place and attach the cover.

CALIBRATION

The thermometer is initially calibrated at the time of manufacture. If the thermometer is used according to the use instructions, periodic readjustment is not required. However, we recommend checking calibration every two years or whenever clinical accuracy of the thermometer is in question. Turn on the thermometer and insert into the water bath and then check the laboratory accuracy ofthe thermometer. Please send the complete device to the dealers or manufacturer. The above recommendations do not supersede the legal requirements. The user must always comply with legal requirements for the control of the measurement, functionality, and accuracy of the device which are required by the scope of relevant laws, directives or ordinances where the device is used.
