Frequently Asked Questions - HCDT12 KONIG

How to turn the thermometer on and off?

Press the ON/OFF button to turn on. The device automatically turns off after approximately 10 minutes of inactivity, or you can press the ON/OFF button again to turn it off manually.

What is normal body temperature?

A normal temperature generally ranges between 36.1°C and 37.2°C (97.0°F to 99.0°F). It may vary depending on activity, time of day, and measurement site.

How to take an oral temperature?

Place the probe tip under the tongue, as close as possible to the heat pocket. Keep your mouth closed during measurement, which lasts approximately 30 seconds.

How to take an axillary temperature?

Clean the armpit with a dry towel, place the probe tip under the arm in contact with the skin, then hold the arm against the chest. The measurement lasts approximately 10 seconds.

How to take a rectal temperature?

Apply a water-soluble lubricant to the probe cover. Gently insert the probe into the rectum (maximum 1.25 cm). The measurement lasts approximately 20 seconds.

What does the fever alarm mean?

If the measured temperature exceeds 37.8°C (100.0°F), the thermometer emits 30 short beeps in 10 seconds. Below that, it emits 10 long beeps.

How to clean the thermometer?

Clean the probe with a cloth moistened with 70-90% isopropyl alcohol or soapy water. Do not sterilize by boiling, gas, or steam.

How to replace the battery?

Remove the battery cover, take out the holder, use a non-metallic object to remove the old battery, then insert a new LR41 or SR41 (1.55V) battery with the positive side facing up. Replace the holder and cover.

What are the safety precautions?

Do not expose the device to water or moisture (except waterproof model). Use under adult supervision. Do not drop or subject to shocks. Do not open except to replace the battery.

What to do if the display shows Lo or Hi?

Lo means the temperature is below 32.0°C (89.6°F). Hi means it is above 42.9°C (109.2°F). Check the probe placement and try again.

What is a "normal" temperature?

Although the generally accepted "normal" temperature reading is 37.0^ / 98.6^ , temperature readings can vary from 36.1^ / 97.0^ to 37.2^ / 99.0^ and still may be considered "normal". Variations in temperature can be attributed to activities such as exercise, smoking, eating and drinking. Your temperature is lower in the morning than in the afternoon. Other variations may be due to the location of the temperature reading. While the oral temperature follows the guidelines previously described, a rectal temperature is generally 0.5^ / 1.0^ higher. Conversely, an axillary (under the arm) temperature will be 0.5^ / 1.0^ lower.

How to take your temperature

1. Press ON/OFF button to activate. The unit will beep and display Lo. This LCD display test will last for about 2 seconds.
2. Then, the temperature taken last time will be displayed with an "M" mark in the right corner.
3. 37.0^ (or 98.6^ ) will appear.
4. When the thermometer displays Lo and flashing ^ C ( ^ F ) it's ready for temperature measuring. If the room temperature is higher than 32.0^ C ( 89.6^ F ), the room temperature will be displayed instead of Lo.
5. The beep will sound when temperature measuring is complete.
6. Press the ON/OFF button to turn off the unit. (The unit will automatically power off approximately ten minutes after use.)

Taking an oral temperature

Place the probe tip under the tongue as near as possible to the heat pocket.

Approximate measuring time: 30 seconds.

Note: Please remember that the oral temperature is a little higher than external temperature (about 0.3^ or 32.54^ ).

Suggestion: Close your mouth at least 2 minutes before taking the temperature for a more accurate measuring.

Taking an underarm temperature

Wipe the underarm with a dry towel and place the probe tip under the arm so the tip is touching the skin with the thermometer perpendicular to the body. Put your arm across the chest so the probe tip is covered properly.

Approximate measuring time: 10 seconds.

Note: Underarm temperatures are generally 0.5^ C or 32.9^ F lower than oral readings.

Suggestion: Close your armpit at least 5 minutes before temperature taking for a more accurate measurement.

Taking a rectal temperature

Apply a water-soluble lubricant to the probe cover. Gently insert the probe (MAXIMUM 1/2 ) into the rectum.

Approximate measuring time: 20 seconds.

Note: Please remember that the rectal temperature is a little higher than external temperature (about 0.5^ or 32.9^ ).

Replacing the battery

The battery in your digital thermometer needs to be replaced when "□" appears in the lower right corner of the display. Replace the battery with a 1.55 V, LR41 alkaline or SR41 silver oxide type or equivalent.

To replace the battery

1. Pull the battery cover away from the unit.
2. Remove the battery holder.
3. Use a non-metal pointed tool to remove the battery and insert the new battery with the positive (+) side facing up.
4. Replace the battery holder.
5. Carefully slide the battery cover back into place.

Warning: Please properly replace the battery away from small children and heat.

Cleaning instructions

Before and after each use, clean the thermometer with a soft cloth and isopropyl alcohol diluted with water, or wash with COLD soapy water. The unit can be submerged in water or alcohol (waterproof model only). Do not soak for an extended period time or sterilize by boiling method, gas or steam autoclaves.

Solution Dilution with water Method
Ethanol 70-80% Wipe the probe with the soaked cloth
Isopropyl Alcohol 70-90% As above
