INTRODUCTION

Thank you or selecting the Oregon Scienti ic™ Forehead

Thermometer (FT101) as your personal healthcare product o choice.

The FT101 Forehead Thermometer is a Class II, over-the-counter,

non-invasive, non-sterile, reusable, in rared clinical electrical

thermometer intended or the intermittent measurement and

assessment o the skin orehead temperature or people o all ages.

Your new orehead thermometer is designed to give you many years

o reliable service, and includes the ollowing conveniences:

• Quick, easy-to-use design with large LCD display or viewing

temperature readings.

• Bright LCD backlight or viewing temperature readings in the

dark.

• Sa e, accurate, non-invasive body temperature readings

correlated to axillary (under arm) measurements.

• Automatic time and date stamping o the last ten temperature

readings taken, with recall and memory erase eatures.

• Temperature conversion into Fahrenheit and Celsius degrees.

• Long battery li e (typically one or more years, depending on use).

• 10 disposable hygienic sensor covers.

This manual contains important sa ety and care in ormation, and

provides step-by-step instructions or using this product. Keep the

manual in a sa e place, in case you need to re er to it later.

Caring for yo r forehead thermometer

To ensure you receive the maximum bene it rom using this product,

please observe the ollowing guidelines.

• Cleaning – Use the disposable sensor covers or each measurement.

Clean the sensor probe with a so t cloth or cotton swab that has

been moistened with alcohol a ter each use. Do not submerge the

do not continue to use it or attempt to repair or modi y it by

yoursel . There are no user-serviceable parts inside the unit.

Contact the retailer or our customer service department or

servicing.

HOW THE FOREHEAD THERMOMETER WORKS

When properly administered by swiping the sensor probe across

the orehead and temple region, this product provides accurate,

near-instantaneous readings that can be used to gauge normal

and elevated body temperatures (e.g., ever). According to clinical

test results, the readings gathered by this device are correlated to

the axillary (under arm) method.

How the thermometer works

As the thermometer moves across the orehead, an in rared sensor

located within the sensor probe detects the skin temperature. The

thermometer then converts this reading to body temperature using

specialized, proprietary so tware that accounts or body heat trans er

di erences and environmental actors such as how cool or warm

the room is. The body temperature is then shown on the LCD display

or you to read.

For best results, observe the ollowing guidelines when using the

thermometer:

• 20 minutes prior to use, place the orehead thermometer in the

room where the measurement will be taken. Five minutes prior,

place the person whose temperature is to be measured in the

same room as the thermometer. This results in more accurate

readings by allowing the person’s skin temperature to reach

equilibrium with the room temperature, and the thermometer’s

environmental compensation so tware to register the room

temperature prior to measurement.

• Gently wipe and dry the orehead prior to taking a measurement.

• Thoroughly clean the unit and sensor probe a ter each use.

• Turn the thermometer o or a ew minutes between

measurements to avoid overheating the sensor and resultant

measurement errors. The thermometer has not ully cooled

down i any part o the meas rement in progress icon is

showing on the LCD display.

Information on body temperat re

Body temperature is a measurement o the amount o heat that the

body conducts. A healthy body has a mechanism or regulating the

temperature within a narrow, sa e range that is productive or its

normal operation. This mechanism can become blocked during

illness, which can result in temperature elevation ( ever) or

depression.

There is no single, normal temperature range or healthy people.

Rather, body temperature luctuates rom person to person and is

a ected by age and time o day. For example, the normal body

temperature or small in ants is usually 1 – 2 degrees higher than

that o healthy adults, and or most people, body temperature lowers

at night while sleeping, and elevates during the day. To gain an

accurate gauge o a person’s normal range, take a temperature

reading several times daily or 3 – 4 days while the person is known

to be healthy.

Temperature measurements are also impacted by the type o

measurement method used. Rectal temperature is generally 1/2 to

1 degree higher than oral temperature, and axillary temperature is

generally 1/2 to 1 degree lower than oral. The ollowing chart lists

general temperature ranges or each method.

GETTING STARTED

Unpacking the forehead thermometer

When you unpack your orehead thermometer, make sure to keep

all the packing materials in a sa e place, in case you need to later

transport or return it or servicing.

Batteries

This product requires two (2) 3-volt CR2032 batteries to operate.

The unit is shipped with a pair o batteries already installed. To

conserve battery li e during shipment, a clear plastic tab is inserted

between the batteries and the connection terminal: Yo will need

to remove the tab before yo se the thermometer.

CR2032 batteries generally have a long battery li e (1 or more

years), but need to be replaced whenever the low battery indicator

( ) shows on the LCD display. It is recommended that you take

the unit to the retailer whenever you need to exchange the batteries.

To change the batteries:

1. Remove the battery compartment door located on the back o

the sensor probe.

2. With a small Phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws that

hold the metal bracket in place. Set the screws and bracket aside.

3. Remove the old batteries. The batteries are stacked one on top

o the other in the battery compartment.

4. Gently slide in the new batteries with the positive (+) polarity

acing up.

5. Replace the metal bracket and screws.

6. Tighten the screws with a Phillips screwdriver until they are

secure.

7. Replace the battery compartment door, and gently close it.

Note: Batteries can be harm ul to the environment. Contact

your local waste disposal authority or proper disposal

instructions.

T rning the thermometer off and on

Press to turn the thermometer o and on.

Setting the calendar clock and meas rement nit

The orehead thermometer includes a 50-year auto-calendar and

optional measurement units in Fahrenheit or Celsius degrees.

These settings are used to maintain a record o the last 10

temperature readings taken, and only need to be set the irst time

you use the thermometer, and whenever you replace the batteries.

To set the calendar clock and measurement unit:

1. Press to turn on the thermometer.

2. Press mode until “12hr” lashes on the display.

3. (Optional) Press to switch between “12hr” and “24hr” time

display.

4. Press mode until the hour lashes on the display.

5. Repeat Steps 3 – 4 to change the hour, minute, year, display

ormat (M/D or D/M), month, date, and unit o measurement.

6. When you are inished, press mode to accept the changes.
