Infrared Forehead Thermometer DT-8807S t
Now point the measuring sensor at a suitable measuring
spot in the middle of the forehead at a distance of about
1 to 4 cm.
Hold it steadily at this position and press the measuring
button. «- - - -» is displayed.
A beep will sound once the measurement is completed,
after approx. 1 second. The unit now displays the sym-
bol for body temperature mode (default mode) and the
measured temperature. If the temperature taken is lower
than 32°C, LO is displayed. If the temperature is higher
than 42°C, HI appears.
The device switches off automatically after approx.
7 seconds, if no button is pressed.
For repeated accurate measurements, always measure
at the same spot.
REMEMBER:
The forehead temperature is equivalent to oral tempera-
ture (oral temperature is normally 0.5°C less than rectal
measured temperature.) This is based on the average
population. For some people it may be different and it is
recommended to learn and recognize the forehead tem-
perature while healthy.
Alternatively, you can also measure the body tempera-
ture in the ear hole, on the earlobe or under the armpit.
7.2 Measuring surface temperature
After power on, press and hold the measuring button.
The symbol for body temperature mode is flashing.
Press the measuring button briefly. The surface tempera-
ture mode symbol is flashing. Press and hold the meas-
uring button for 3 seconds to confirm the selection.
Caution: If you do not make any settings, the symbol
continues to flash. The device does not switch off auto-
matically.
Simply aim at the target and press the measuring but-
ton. A beep will sound once the measurement is com-
pleted, after approx. 1 second. The unit now displays the
symbol for surface temperature mode and the measured
temperature.
Note:
This mode shows the actual and unadjusted surface
temperature which is different from body temperature.

6. Getting started
The battery compartment is located on the back of the
device. Open the battery compartment by sliding the
battery cover down.
Insert two new AAA 1.5 V batteries with the correct
polarity.
After inserting the batteries, the device automatically
enters the temperature unit setting mode. You will hear
two beeps and °C is flashing. Press the measuring but-
ton briefly to select between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit
(°F) as the temperature unit while the display is flashing.
Press and hold the measuring button for 3 seconds to
confirm the selection. The device switches off. If you do
not make any settings, the device switches off automati-
cally after approx. 30 seconds. The default setting is °C.
Close the battery compartment again. The cover is pro-
perly inserted in the housing, as soon as a click is heard.
7. Operation
7.1 Measuring body temperature on the forehead (Fig. 2)
Avoid taking a measurement less than 30 minutes after
physical exercise, bathing or dining.
The thermometer and the person to be measured should
be in the same room under constant ambient conditions
at least 15 minutes before the measurement.
Always make sure that the sensor is clean and un-
damaged.
Clean the forehead from sweat, makeup, etc
