Memory Function - Safety 1st HOSPITAL'S Choice 49531 Guide D'utilisation

Introduction
How Does it Work? (continued)
To obtain the equivalent of a rectal reading for these children, add 0.5°C (0.9°F) to the
ear measurement reading.
Consulting with your physician
When discussing a person's fever with your physician, be sure to inform your physician of
that person's reference temperature. (Reference temperatures are discussed on page 2.) If
you do not have a reference temperature, find the person's age on the chart (page 2) to
determine his or her normal temperature range and use that instead.
Persons who are ill often do not have a high temperature or a temperature as high as
would be expected for their illness. These can include infants less than 90 days of age;
persons whose immune systems have been weakened; and persons taking antibiotics,
steroids, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, or aspirin. Check with your doctor if someone
appears to be ill but has a normal or unexpectedly low temperature.
The Accu-Light 1-Second Ear Thermometer should not be a substitute for any medical care.
Information on Fever
A fever is a body temperature that exceeds an individual's normal body temperature
range. Except in the cases of newborn infants, the presence of a fever need not necessarily
be a cause for concern. In fact, a fever can help the immune system to work more
effectively. However, a physician should be consulted if a fever is accompanied by
vomiting; diarrhea; changes in appetite, breathing, or activity level; or, in the case of
children, irritability, lethargy, or sleepiness.
Accu-light and Mute Functions
The Accu-light illuminates when the On/Off Button is pressed. It stays lit, allowing you to
find your child's ear, even in the dark. The Accu-light flashes and the unit beeps to
indicate the reading is complete. The Accu-light glows steady until unit is powered down
or until the unit automatically shuts off. Automatic shut off occurs after one minute of no
activity. If desired, the unit can be used in mute mode so as not to wake the child.

Memory Function

The Accu-Light 1-Second Ear Thermometer memory function stores the last measurement.
This measurement will appear for approximately three seconds after turning the
thermometer on and after it runs its built-in test. The ready display will then show after
last reading appears. This feature allows you to compare your most recent measurement
to the prior one.
