ENGLISH Intended Use The Kinsa Smart Ear Thermometer is intended to measure the human body temperature in the ear. This device is reusable for clinical or home use on both adults and children. Warnings And Precautions • This thermometer functions with most Apple and Android mobile devices. Please see kinsahealth.com/phones for the full list of supported • devices. Clean the probe before and after use. • Never use the thermometer for purposes other than body temperature measurement.
Body Temperature Temperature readings vary from person to person, by age, time of day, and by site of measurement. For example, core body temperature often decreases with age. The best method to determine your own normal temperature is to use the thermometer when you are feeling well. Record your temperature twice a day (early morning and late afternoon) using the Kinsa app. Take the average of the two temperatures. This is considered your normal body temperature.
To Set Up Your Thermometer For First Time Use E 1. Open the battery door E. 2. Insert two AAA batteries (included), making sure the poles are in the right direction, into the thermometer. Snap battery door into place. 3. Enable Bluetooth on your mobile device. 4. Download the Kinsa app from the App Store or Google Play. The app can also be downloaded by going directly to kinsahealth.com/download. Please see kinsahealth.com/phones for the full list of supported devices. 5. Launch the Kinsa app.
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. • Some people produce different readings in their left and right ear. In order to record temperature changes, always measure a person’s temperature in the same ear. • The ear thermometer may be used by children only under adult supervision. Measurement is usually possible over the age of 6 months.
ENGLISH Taking a Temperature 1. Tap the Power/Start button A to turn on the thermometer. You will hear a beep when the thermometer is ready to take a temperature. During an internal self-check, the display shows all segments. The thermometer will be ready for temperature taking when the screen shows three dashes. 2. First, gently tug the ear straight up and back. Next, fit the probe snuggly into the ear canal. Be sure to position the probe so that it is pointing toward the center of the head.
Understanding Your Thermometer Display DISPLAY SITUATION SOLUTION Battery icon, empty, blinking Battery is critically low and may not operate correctly Insert new batteries. Battery levels: 2 bars = 40% battery 1 bar = 20% battery 0 bars = 5% battery HI Temperature taken is not within typical human temperature range (93.2108 °F or 34-42.2 °C) HI = too high LO = too low Make sure the probe tip and lens are clean. Make sure the thermometer is properly inserted. Then, take a new temperature.
ENGLISH Cleaning And Storage To ensure your Smart Ear thermometer is recording accurate temperatures, it is very important to keep the probe sensor tip clean. To clean the probe tip, gently wipe it with a cotton swab or soft cloth moistened with alcohol. Gently circle the alcohol wipe around the inner sensor area at the tip of the Smart Ear. Be sure to clean the inner flat surface of the sensor - not just the rim. Never submerge your Kinsa or put it in boiling water or a dishwasher.
