- When all symbols appear on the display, the self-diagnosis is finished, it is ready
for measuring. - After the device beeps twice, place the probe on the measuring site.
- The measurement is done when you hear one long beep.
- Read the temperature on LCD.
- Backlight will light up in accordance with the reading. Please refer to Table 1.
- The device’s fever alarm will beep continuously when the temperature reading
is higher than 99.5°F. - Press and hold the ON/OFF button to turn off the device or the device will shut
off automatically within 60 seconds of inactivity.
Read-back last memory by NFC
Install OUcare APP from Google play or App Store successfully. OUcare not only collect temperatures but also can do graph for checking temperature’s trend easily.
For Android mobile device: When the device is off, put mobile device
above the thermometer, the last temperature will be read-back and
show on mobile device.
For iPhone7 or above: The iOS should be 11.0 or above. When the
device is off, press the NFC icon of APP then close to the thermometer,
the last temperature will be read-back and show on mobile device.
Refer to the figure of NFC area of iPhone7 in the right.

ABOUT BODY TEMPERATURE
A person’s normal body temperature can range from 95.9°F to 100.0°F throughout the day. We recommend taking your temperature at different times during the day when you are NOT sick. This will give you a preliminary reference to know what your normal temperature is and how it fluctuates during a normal day. Then, when you feel sick or uncomfortable, knowing this information will provide an index for a reliable diagnosis of a fever.
