1. The probe lens is a very delicate part of this product. Care should be taken to protect the probe lens. Please do not touch the probe directly with your fingers or blow on it. Probe should be covered by the protective cap after measurement.
2. Before use, check the probe lens to make sure that it is clean. If necessary, please clean the probe lens by following the steps below:
a. Use 70% isopropyl alcohol wipes to gently clean the probe
lens.
b. Wait for one minute to allow the probe lens to dry, then
place a new probe cover onto the probe.
3. Do not use the thermometer in an environment with strong electromagnetic interference (EMI). Some common examples of EMI sources include an operating microwave oven, induction cooker, and in-use cell phone. EMI could cause less accurate results or even device damage.
4. Keep the thermometer out of reach of children. If children try to measure by themselves, they may damage their ears.
5. Keep the product at a place inaccessible to children to prevent children from swallowing the batteries or small parts.
6. Please keep the product in accordance with the storage conditions, so as not to cause usage problems and measurement errors.
7. Avoid dropping or subjecting the product to external forces. It may cause measurement errors or product failures.
8. Do not disassemble, repair, or modify the product.
9. Remove the batteries if you are not going to use the device for an extended period of time.
10. Do not keep the thermometer under direct sunlight, in high temperature, or moist environments. Do not submerge the thermometer in water or other liquids.
11. Do not place the product where an electric shock may result.
12. Please contact customer service if there are any issues with your thermometer. You should not repair it by yourself.
Note: Non-OEM parts will cause measurement inaccuracy.
13. This product is a measurement device. It is recommended that the accuracy of the product be verified annually by the manufacturer or a qualified third-party organization.
14. This product is in human body temperature measurement mode during normal use.
15. Use of this thermometer is not intended as a substitute for consultation with your physician. Please consult your doctor if you have any doubts about the temperature reading.
16. Do not throw batteries into an open fire or short-circuit the batteries.
17. There is no absolute standard for human body temperature. Knowing your own normal body temperature range is important to accurately determine if you have a fever.
18. It is normal for readings taken from continuous measurement to fluctuate within a small range. During continuous measurements, the subject’s body temperature may be transmitted to the thermometer, affecting measurement accuracy. We recommend taking only up to 3 consecutive readings within a short period.
19. If thermometer temperature readings are inaccurate, one or
more of the following may have occurred:
a. Operation outside of the manufacturer-specified subject temperature range.
b. Operation outside of the manufacturer-specified operating temperature and humidity ranges.
c. Storage outside of the manufacturer-specified ambient temperature and humidity ranges.
d. Mechanical shock.
e. Manufacturer-defined soiled or damaged infrared optical components.
f. Operation outside of the specified subject temperature range.
20. ASTM laboratory accuracy requirements in the display range of 98°F to 102 °F (37 to 39 °C) for IR thermometers is ±0.4 °F (±0.2 °C), whereas for mercury-in-glass and electronic thermometers, the requirement per ASTM Standards E667-86 and E1112-86 is ±0.2 °F (± 0.1 °C).
21. Earwax can affect the measurement, you should clean the ear before measuring if necessary.
22. Do not use the iHealth Infrared Ear Thermometer if you are allergic to plastics or rubber.
23. The patient contact materials have been evaluated according to the standards of ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-10.
No toxicity, allergy, or irritation reactions were reported.
Based on the current science and technology, other potential allergic reactions are unknow.
24. The patient is the intended operator.
25. This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
a. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
b. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
26. The thermometer may be used by children only under adult supervision. In infants under 6 months, the ear canal is still very narrow so the temperature is for reference only. Please consult your doctor.
27. Do not CARE OR PERFORM MAINTENANCE while the iHealth Infrared Ear Themometer EQUIPMENT is in use.
28. This product contains batteries and recyclable electronic waste. To protect the environment, do not dispose of it with other household waste, but take it to appropriate local collection points.
29. Following mechanical shock, the thermometer should not be used before recalibration.
30. WARNING: Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the ME EQUIPMENT. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.
