7. If you cannot correctly measure the patient’s temperature in
Normal Mode, the unit will automatically enter Monitor
Mode. In this mode, measurement time is extended. Either
repeat the temperature measurement in Normal Mode or
keep the probe in place for three minutes in Monitor Mode.
The thermometer will not beep to indicate a final temperature. Record the
temperature before removing the probe from the site, as the temperature
reading is not maintained in memory.
8. After the temperature measurement is complete, remove the probe from the
patient’s rectum. Eject the probe cover by firmly pressing the ejection button
on the top of the probe.
9. Return the probe to the probe well. The LCD display will go blank.
10. Wash your hands.
Long-term continuous monitoring beyond three minutes is not
recommended in Rectal Mode.
Washing hands greatly reduces the risk of cross-contamination and
Nosocomial Infection.
