Temperature Indoors Before measuringNote Temperatures are measured by the energy emitted by humans. A thermometer does not emit radiation as it is harmless. Safety precautions– Follow the maintenance advice stipulated in this instruction manual. Intended useThe device is an infrared thermometer intended to measure the forehead temperature of infants and adults without contacting the human body. It can be used by consumers in a household environment and doctors in clinics as a reference. IntroductionThe JXB-178 Non-contact Infrared to now. the most suitable thermometer for no risk on temperature measurement thermometer has been developed by using the latest infrared technology. This technology allows temporal artery (TA) temperature to be taken at a distance of about 3cm-5cm away from the forehead. Precise. Instantaneous and without Contact. the JXB-178 is. up. It has been demonstrated that this method of TA temperature measurement is more precise than the tympanic thermometry and better tolerated than rectal thermometry (1). However, as with other types of thermometers, it is essential to use the JXB-178 properly in order to obtain reliable and stable results. You are therefore advised to read this instruction manual and the safety precautions carefully before use. (1)Greenes D, Fleisher G. Accuracy of a Noninvasive Temporal Artery Thermometer for Use in Infants. Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med 20011 55:376 Precautions before useThe JXB-178 is pre-set at the factory. In order to obtain reliable and stable results, you are advised each time there is a significant change in the ambient temperature due to a change in environment, to avow the JX8-178 to acclimatize to this ambient temperature for 15 to 20 minutes before using it It is important to allow 3-5 seconds intervals between two measurements. Operating principleAll objects, solid, liquid, or gas, emit energy by radiation. The Intensity of this energy depends on the temperature of the object. The JX13-178 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 an extremal temperature probe on the device which permanently analyses and registers the ambient temperature. Therefore. as soon as the operator holds the thermometer near the body and activates the radiation sensor. the measurement is taken instantly by detection of the Infrared heat generated by the arterial blood flow. Body heat can therefore be measured without any interference from the heat of the surrounding environment. THE DIFFERENT METHODS OF TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTCore temperature Core temperature is the most precise measurement and involves measuring the temperature In the pulmonary artery by means of a catheter equipped with a thermal probe that can read the temperature in situ. The same method is employed for probes measuring the oesophageal temperature. However. such invasive temperature measurement methods require specific equipment and expertise. Reetal
thermometry Oral thermometry 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. Raillery (armpit) temperature 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 make this type of temperature, the thermometer must be wedged tightly over the axillary artery. Despite the low sensitivity and reffitWe 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 In order to able, a precise temperature reading, good command of the measurement technique is required. The thermometer probe must be placed as close as possible to the warmest part of the external ear canal Normal temperatures according to measurement method The temperature of the human body varies throughout the day. It can also be influenced by numerous external factors: age, sex, type, and thickness of skin… Advantages of temporal artery (ta) temperatureInfrared 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. The JXB-178 thermometer has been designed to produce an instant forehead temperature reading without any contact with the temporal artery. As this artery is quite close to the surface of this skin and therefore accessible and given the blood flow is permanent and regular, it allows precise measurement of the temperature. This artery is linked to the heart by the carotid artery which is directly linked to the aorta. It forms part of the main trunk of the arterial system. The efficiency, speed, and comfort of taking a temperature from this area make it ideal compared with other temperature measurements methods. The normal temperature according to agePractical considerations when taking a temperature – In order to ensure that precise and accurate temperature measurements are obtained, it is essential that each user has received adequate
information on and training in the temperature measurement technique when using such a device. How to take a temperatureAim at the middle of the forehead, from a distance of about 3cm-5cm, press the thermometers measurement button and the temperature is instantly displayed. Constraints Please observe the following before any temperature measurement to ensure a stable and reliable result:
– Avoid any drafts (e.g. from nasal specs, air conditioning…)
– 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 instrumentThe type BF applied part: Sensor. Features
Additional usage: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

Longevity of the product The JXB-178 was conceived for intense and professional use, its longevity is guaranteed for 100,000 takings. Maintenance of the product– The protective glass over the lens is the most important and fragile part of the thermometer, please take great care of it. – Clean the glass with cotton fabric, wet it with 95° alcohol. AccessoriesUser Manual in English 1 pc GuidelinesThis 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 regard to electromagnetic compatibility. TroubleshootingIf you have problems while using your thermometer, please refer to this guide to help resolve the problem. If the problem persists, please contact our customer service. THE SCREEN DISPLAYS TEMPERATURE HIGHER THAN 43.0°C (109.4°F): The temperature is in Fahrenheit. Change the measurement to Celsius. THE SCREEN DISPLAYS TEMPERATURE LOWER THAN 32°C (89.6°F): To take the surface temperature, press the “MODE” button and set to the reading called “Body” , If the device is in Surface Temp Mode, the 32°C (89.6°F) temperature displayed is showing the external temperature of your body, rather than the internal. THE SCREEN DISPLAYS THE MESSAGE HI THE SCREEN DISPLAYS THE MESSAGE LO When using the JXB-178 Thermometer, the message “LO” can show on the screen. In this case, the temperature analyzed is under the measuring range selected, either less than 32°C (89.6°F) in Body Mode.
