Each time there is a significant change in ambient temperature due to a change in environment,
you are advised to allow the MyThermo BW-CX10 15 to 20 minutes to acclimate to this ambient
temperature before using it in order to obtain reliable and stable results. It is important to allow
a one minute interval between two measurements.
- The protective glass of the lens is the most fragile part of the thermometer.
- Do not touch the infrared lens with your fingers.
- Clean the surface of the glass with a cotton ball lightly moistened with 70° isopropyl alcohol.
- Do not put the thermometer in contact with an open wound.
- Do not drink hot or cold drinks, or exercise when measuring temperature.
3. INTRODUCTION
The MyThermo BW-CX10 is an infrared thermometer that provides body surface and forehead
temperature measurements without contact to the human body, appropriate for both infants
and adults. Precise and instantaneous, the MyThermo BW-CX10 is a thermometer perfectly
suited for safe temperature measurement and is designed for use in a home environment as well
as a medical setting. The technology allows the measurement of temperature on the temporal
artery (TA) to be taken at a distance of about 1-2 in. (2 - 5 cm) from the forehead/temple.
The MyThermo BW-CX10 is an infrared thermometer without contacting to human body for
body surface and forehead temperature measurement for infants and adults. It is precise,
instantaneous and can be used by consumers in household environment and doctor in clinic
as reference.
However, it is essential to use the MyThermo BW-CX10 properly in order to obtain reliable and
stable results.
You are therefore advised to read this instruction manual and the safety precautions carefully
before use.
4. OPERATING PRINCIPLES
All objects, solid, liquid or gas, emit energy by radiation. The intensity of this energy depends
on the temperature of the object. The MyThermo BW-CX10 infrared thermometer is therefore
able to measure the temperature of a person by the energy the person emits. This measurement
can be taken thanks to an external temperature probe on the device which permanently
analyzes and registers the ambient temperature. Therefore, as soon as the operator holds
the thermometer near the body and activates the radiation sensor, the measurement is taken
instantly by detection of the infrared heat generated by the arterial blood flow. Body heat can
therefore be measured without any interference from the heat of the surrounding environment.
Advantages of temporal artery (TA) temperature
Infrared arterial temperature can be measured using a device placed on the forehead, in the
temporal artery region.
The MyThermo BW-CX10 thermometer has been designed to produce an instant temporal/
