  Battery Installation  Low battery warning:   When the battery power becomes low, the low battery symbol will appear on the display. The thermometer can still be used during this time, but the batteries should be replaced as soon as possible. If the batteries run out completely, “Lo” will be displayed along with the low battery symbol. In this case, the batteries will need to be replaced before using the thermometer again.  Replacing the Battery: 1.   Gently slide the battery cover back. 2.   Carefully remove the old batteries and properly discard. 3.   Insert new batteries (Two 1.5V alkaline AAA Size) according to the proper polarity. 4.   Slide the battery cover back on.  NOTE: Battery-operated 1.  Please properly dispose of the batteries away from small children and heat. 2.   It is recommended to remove the batteries if the unit will not be used for an extended period of time. 3.   For long durations of non-operation, please remove all batteries from the device. 4.   Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with local environmental and institutional policies. 5.   Dispose of used batteries in accordance with the applicable legal regulations. Never dispose of batteries in the normal household waste.  5   Switching Between Fahrenheit or Celsius  Your thermometer can display results in either degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F). To switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit, while the unit is on press and hold both the Human/Object button and the Memory button for approximately 3 seconds. This will change the mode to either °C or °F. Once the thermometer beeps, at which time the mode has been changed and you may release the buttons.    Switching between 4 Kinds of Scan Mode  1.   Under power on status, you can press the Human/Object button to switch different scan mode. There are 4 kinds of mode which including Human, Object, Human/Night, and Object/Night mode (in order). 2.   The beep sounds will be closed when your choice in Human/Night mode, and Object/Night mode, and the Moon symbol will appears on the LCD in both Night mode.  NOTE: Each press will comes with a beep sound to ensure the setting is activated. (Except both Night modes)    6
  Tips for Measuring Human Temperature  Bear in mind that the thermometer needs to have been in the room in which the measurement is taken for at least 30 minutes before use.  NOTE:   •    Attempting to take temperature readings from sites on the body other than the forehead may produce inaccurate results. •    The patient should remain still while the reading is being taken. •    Infrared forehead temperature readings are equivalent to oral temperature readings. In all of these cases, please consult your doctor. •    Readings taken while asleep should not be compared directly to readings taken while awake, as body temperature while asleep is typically lower. •    Do not take body temperature readings within 30 minutes of being outdoors, exercising or bathing.  Measuring Human Temperature  Taking a Measurement 1. Press the Measure button to power on the thermometer. The unit will run a self-test and the LCD will briefly display all of its symbols during this time. When the device is ready, ‘00’ will appear on the screen, and the thermometer will beep twice. 2. Select the desired mode by pressing and releasing the Human/Object button.    Note: -   When taking a patient’s temperature, ensure that the thermometer is in Human mode; the Human symbol “ ”will appear on the display. -  If the patient’s skin is covered with hair, sweat, or dirt, clean the area and wait 10 minutes before taking a measurement.-  Ensure that the thermometer is held firmly during measurement and that the patient does not move until the measurement is complete. Movement can impact the measurement. 7   Measuring Human Temperature  3.  Position the thermometer under 3cm (around 1 inches) from the center of the patient's forehead with the sensor aimed between the eyebrows.  4.   Press and release the Measure button. 5.   Slowly move the device toward or farther from the forehead until you have reached the correct distance. (If the distance is beyond the correct distance, the dash-icon on the display flashes with beep sound in this sequence until the correct distance is achieved. )  Note:   When the user presses the measure button, this workflow begins and they have 20 seconds to capture the temperature. After 20 seconds, the display turn to stand-by mode. 6.  As you hear a short beep means this temperature reading has been completed and accompany with a back-light. 7.   If the temperature measurement is below 38°C, a “Smiling Face ” will be appear next to the reading. If the reading is 38°C or above, a “Frowning Face ” will be displayed and the RED LED light up. 8.   After about 30 seconds after use, the thermometer will automatically beep and shut off.  Fever Alarm: Only in Human Mode and Human/Night Mode 8
  Measuring Object/Liquid Temperature  1.   Press the Power button to turn the thermometer on. All symbols on the display will momentarily appear. 2.   Ensure that the thermometer is in Object mode; the Object symbol will be on the display. To alternate between modes press and release the Human/Object Mode button until you see the desired measurement symbol on the display. 3.   Position the thermometer under 3cm (around 1 inches) from the object.  4.   Press and release the “Power & Measure button” and the temperature reading will be displayed.  5.   After about 30 seconds after use, the thermometer will automatically beep and shut off.    9   Memory Function  Memory Recall: You can recall up to 30 measurements currently stored in memory to share with your physician or trained healthcare professional. 1.    When the device is on, press once briefly on the "MEM button", then pass it again to show the last measurement accompanied by “” symbol. 2.    The “” symbol or “ ” symbol will appear with each measurement stored in memory to indicate whether a person or object temperature was taken. 3.  Each press of the same button recalls a previous measurement, so “” then all the way to “ ”.  Memory Deletion: 1.    Under power on status, you may keep press MEM Button for more than 3 seconds to delete all the readings. 2.    You will see "00" on display and “sound a beep”, that mean all the memories are cleared.   3.    Automatically on the 31th measurement:   when the 30 memories have been used up, any new measurement will be recorded with  “ ” and the oldest memory deleted without you having to do anything.  Note:   All the readings will be cleared no matter record in Human mode or Object mode. 10

Electromagnetic/Radio Frequency Interference (EMC/RFI):   Readings may be affected if the unit is operated within a radio frequency electromagnetic fi eld strength of approximately 3 volts per meter, but the performance of the instrument will not be permanently affected. Care should be taken to keep the NT16B at least 6 inches away from R/C transmitters to avoid radio frequency interference. 2.  Avoid keeping the NT16B too close to objects that continuously generate high heat (like a hot plate) for long periods of time, which can cause overheating of the NT16B.
