About this deal

We recommend that you take three measurements on the forehead, and if the results of three measurements are different, use the one with the highest value." Only use this thermometer for the specific purpose described in the instruction manual. Any misuse will void the warranty. JXB-178 can also be used to measure the temperature of a baby-bottle or bath (by using the Surface Temp Mode), or room temperature (by using the Room Mode). Instructions Remove the batteries if you do not wish to use the unit for an extended period of time. Otherwise there is a danger that the batteries may leak. Expiration date: The JXB-182 may last, but is not guaranteed, for up to 5 years from the date of the manufacturing

In this case, the temperature is above the measurement range selected, either above 43.0°C (109.4°F) in Body Mode. It's worth mentioning that this thermometer has a storage function for up to 32 readings, however, it doesn't store date or time along with the readings. After it reaches 32, the batteries need to be removed and re-inserted to clear the memory.To ensure an accurate measurement, this device must only be used indoors when the ambient temperature range is between 10°C (50°F) and 40°C (104°F).

When using the JXB-182 Thermometer, the message "HI" can show on the screen. In this case, the temperature is above the measurement range selected, either above 43.0°C (109.4°F) in Body Mode. Keep the thermometer away from electromagnetic fields produced by objects such as microwave ovens, arc welders or induction heaters. Oral temperature is easily influenced by recent ingestion of food or drinks and by breathing through the mouth. To measure oral temperature, the mouth must remain closed and the tongue lowered for three to four minutes which is a difficult task for young children to accomplish. For the first use or when inserting new Battery, wait from 10~15 minutes for the warm-up of the unit. This will allow the unit to become acclimated to the temperature of the room.

It’s pretty hard, actually, unless you’re willing to do some experimentation. You can test your thermometer repeatedly on yourself, observing whether your temperature changes significantly each time, even when all other parameters (like your location and activity level) don’t change. Press the On/Scan button, aim towards the forehead (see the diagram below for the JXB-178 positioning), from a distance of 3cm-5cm, When pressing the “OnIScan” button in the standby mode, the measuring is done when the temperature is showing in the screen or the beep is announcing, measuring time is one second. Although it may be easy to measure axillary temperature, it has been proven that it does not provide an accurate measurement of the child's internal temperature. To take this type of temperature, the thermometer must be wedged tightly over the axillary artery. Despite the low sensitivity and relative inaccuracy of axillary temperature in detecting fever, this method is recommended by The American Academy of Pediatrics as a screening test for fever in newborns. Tympanic thermometry Oral temperature is easily influenced by recent ingestion of foodordrinks and by breathing through the mouth. To measure oral temperature, the mouth must remain closed and the tongue lowered for three to four minutes which is a difficult task for young children to accomplish.

Each time there is a significant change in the ambient temperature due to a change in environment, to allow the JXB-178 to acclimatise to this ambient temperature for at least 15 minutes before using it. To clean the entire device, use a soft cloth slightly dampened with mild soapy water or 70% isopropyl alcohol. Under no circumstances may liquid enter the thermometer. • Do not use the thermometer again until it is completely dry and keep it stand still at least 30 minutes. The thermometer beeps when a reading is ready, and the screen is easy to see. It also recalls the last reading taken when it's turned on, has an auto shut-off feature, and we like that it can be used rectally and under the arm with infants and small children.

Dr. Johnston also flags the issue of cleaning and caring for your thermometer. Thermometers with a probe will require cleaning after use, she explains, while infrared thermometers won’t since they’re not used internally. Press the "On/Scan" button. The display will illuminate, will enter the "Standby Mode" and will display "---°C" or "----°F". Next, place the device 3-5 cm (1.5-2 in) away from the individual's forehead, aim the sensor of the device toward the forehead, and press the "On/Scan" button again, which will then take the individual's temperature. Temperature should be taken in a neutral context. The patient must not have undertaken vigorous physical activity prior to taking his/her temperature and the room temperature must be moderate.

When sitting, the temperature is lower by about 0.3°C to 0.4°C than when standing. How to take a temperature Each time there is a significant change in the ambient temperature due to a change in environment, to allow the JXB-178 to acclimatize to this ambient temperature for at least 15 minutes before using it. Basic instrument taken into consideration when evaluating the results: temperature increases by 0.5°C between 6 am and 3 pm. Women have a temperature that is higher, on average, by around 0.2°C. Their temperature also varies in accordance with their ovarian cycle. It rises by 0.5°C in the second half of the cycle and at the early stages of pregnancy. Infrared arterial temperature can be measured using a device placed on the forehead, in the temporal artery region. It has been demonstrated that this relatively new method of measuring temperature is more precise than tympanic thermometry and better tolerated than rectal thermometry. All objects, solid, liquid or gas, emit energy by radiation. The intensity of this energy depends on the temperature of the object. The JXB-178 infrared thermometer is therefore able to measure the temperature of a person by the energy the person emits. This measurement can be taken thanks to anexternal temperature probe on the device which permanently analyses and registers the ambient temperature.When purchasing a thermometer online or in a store, beware of retailers from outside the United States,” says Dr. Helzer, adding that the FDA offers guidance on purchasing and selling thermometers since they are considered medical devices (and some of those guidelines were modified during the pandemic). For the first use or when inserting a new Battery. wait from 10-15 minutes for the warm-up of the unit. This will allow the unit to become acclimated to the temperature of the room. This device complies with the EU Directive 93/42/EEC concerning medical products, the ISO 80601-2-56 and the European Standard EN60601-1-2, and is subject to particular precautions with Improperly installing the batteries could cause damage to the device. Do NOT use rechargeable batteries.
