Frequently Asked Questions - TS 04 IBP

How to turn the TS 04 thermometer on and off?

To turn on, press the on/off button (Scan) for about 1 second. To turn off, hold the same button for about 5 seconds. The device also turns off automatically after 1 minute of inactivity.

What is the most accurate measurement method?

Ear measurement is the most accurate. Place the sensor in the ear canal to capture emissions from the eardrum. Measurement on the temple or forehead may indicate 0.5 to 0.6 °C lower due to ambient temperature.

How to change the display from °C to °F?

Hold the on/off button (Scan) pressed, then briefly press the memory button (M). The unit toggles between °C and °F.

What do the smiley and frowny faces on the screen mean?

A smiley face appears if the measured temperature is below 38 °C. A frowny face accompanied by 2 beeps indicates a temperature ≥ 38 °C (fever).

How to view saved measurements?

Press the memory button (M). The screen shows the last measurement (number 0). Press again to scroll through the last 10 measurements (0 to 9). The device has two profiles (M1 and M2) for two people.

When to replace the battery and how?

Replace the battery (CR-2032) when the low battery symbol appears. Slide the compartment cover, remove the old battery with a suitable tool, insert the new one with the + pole facing up, then close.

How to clean the sensor and housing?

The sensor is waterproof: clean it with a soft cloth or cotton swab soaked in alcohol. The housing is not waterproof: wipe it with a dry cloth only.

What to do if the screen shows 'Lo' or 'Hi'?

'Lo' means the measured temperature is below 10 °C; 'Hi' means it is above 50 °C. The device cannot measure outside its range (10-50 °C). Check that the sensor is properly positioned and the temperature is within the range.

Can I use this thermometer for water or other objects?

Yes, it can measure other temperatures (skin, water, milk, ambient) without direct contact; keep the sensor at 0.5-1.0 cm from the object. Note that accuracy is optimized for the human body.

Is the thermometer suitable for children?

Yes, it is suitable for children, but under adult supervision. Do not let a child use the device without supervision. Ear measurement is recommended for children (provided the ear canal is clear).

SAFETY INFORMATION

• Only the sensor is water resistant, the device itself is not water resistant.
• Avoid touching the device on the sensor tip, thus ensuring that measurement accuracy is not affected by heating and soiling of the sensor casing.
• The thermometer is only to be used for measuring the temperature of the human body.
• Incorrect operation and improper handling may cause problems with the appliance and/or injury to the user.
• The unit may be used only for its intended purpose. No liability is accepted for any damage arising from improper use or faulty handling.
• Never attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
• Never attempt to open the housing.
• Do not introduce objects of any kind into the housing.
• Do not operate the unit if the unit has been dropped or otherwise damaged. In such cases, send the unit to a service centre for testing and any necessary repairs.
• This unit is not suitable for commercial use.
• Children cannot recognise the dangers associated with improper handling of electrical devices. You should therefore never allow children to use electrical appliances except under supervision.
• Do not throw batteries away with your household rubbish! Please dispose of batteries in accordance with the law! Batteries are hazardous waste! Never short-circuit a battery! Do not throw the battery into the fire! Keep batteries away from children!
• The appliance contains high-precision components. You should keep it away from extremes of temperature, humidity and direct sunlight. Avoid dropping or knocking the unit and protect it from dust.

• The temple and ear thermometer is not suitable for rectal measurements.

• The accuracy of measurements may be limited by the following factors: increased sweat formation on the forehead, the intake of vasoconstrictive medication and skin irritation. The temple and ear thermometer is calibrated for ear temperature measurement at the manufacturer, inside the ear the sensor is protected against external temperature and consequently produces a more precise measurement. On the temple or forehead the skin is cooler, depending upon ambient temperature, i.e. the measurement displays 0.5 × 0.6^ C less than inside the ear. In an extremely cool environment this deviation may be even greater.

• Please remember that this does not replace a visit to your doctor.
• Self-diagnosis and self-treatment using this measurement device are dangerous. Only a doctor can evaluate your measurements. It is important that you follow the instructions of your doctor.
• Clean the water resistant sensor after use. Read the chapter on cleaning and care for more details.

ACCESSIONS

Instruction manual, Temple and ear thermometer, Battery type CR-2032, Storage box

PRODUCT INFORMATION

The temple and ear thermometer is a delicate electronic device designed for the reading of body temperature. It allows accurate and reliable readings by reception of the infrared rays in the ear or at the temple. The thermometer converts the infrared energy measured into a temperature value. However, it should be noted that the body's temperature varies depending upon age and the time that the reading is taken. This devise may also be used to measure other types of temperature, for instance, of the skin, water, milk and ambient temperature. It is important to point out that it is not necessary for the thermometer to be in direct contact with the material. The optimum distance between the object and the thermometer is approximately 0.2-0.39 inch (0.5-1.0 cm).

BATTERY INSTALLATION / REPLACEMENT

Please only replace the battery when the weak battery symbol appears in the LCD display (E) (see page 21).

• Slide back the battery cover (B).
• Lever out the old battery with a suitable tool (e.g. a small slotted screwdriver).
• Please use a type CR-2032 button cell battery.
• Insert the battery with the + terminal facing upwards.
• Slide the battery cover (B) back into position.
• Please dispose of old batteries at the foreseen collection points. Read the chapter on waste disposal and care of the environment for more details.

Fig. 2

Switching off the temple and ear thermometer:

• Hold down the On/Off button (D) for approximately 5 seconds. The device is switched off automatically after one minute.

Measurements in the ear (most accurate measurement):

• Introduce the sensor (A) deep into the ear. The sensor (A) must be positioned in the ear canal in order to record the sustained heat of the eardrum (See fig. 3).
• Press the On/Off button (D) briefly. You will hear an acoustic signal. Remove the temple and ear thermometer in order to read the results on the display (fig.4).

Measurements on the temple/forehead:

Please note that the ambient temperature outside of the ear may influence the measurement result. The cooler the ambient temperature, the cooler the skin is, i.e. the measurement may be 0.5 - 0.6^ below that of the temperature in the ear. Alternatively, you can also take a measurement from the temple or forehead.

• Hold the sensor (A) directly on the temple. Press the On/Off button (D) briefly. You will hear an acoustic signal. This confirms the measurement. You can now read the result from the LCD display (E).

Changing the display from ^ C / ^ F

This temple and ear thermometer can be altered from Celsius to Fahrenheit.

• Hold down the On/Off button (D) and press the save button (C) briefly. (See fig. 5.1 and 5.2)

Meaning of the face symbols:

In the case of a result below 38 degrees Celsius a smiling face will appear on the LCD display (E), in contrast, a sad face is displayed at temperatures above 38 degrees, with 2 acoustic signals also heard. (See fig. 6 and 7)

Error message on the LCD display:

The measurement temperature of the device lies between 10^ and 50^ Celsius. In the event of a result below 10 degrees «Lo» appears, at over 50 degrees «Hi» is displayed (see fig. 8 and 9).

Saving measurements:
