IV. Instructions For Use Probe Covers- Applying & Removing 1. Open probe cover box by lifting tab at top corner. 2. To view number of remaining probe covers, continue pulling tab to remove side panel. 3. Insert box of probe covers into top of Isolation Chamber. To aid infection control, never switch boxes between blue and red isolation chambers . Also, never switch probes between blue and red isolation chambers. Keep like colors together. 4. Remove the probe from its sheath. This automatically turns on the thermometer. 5. A moving picture is momentarily displayed before applying or removing Probe Covers, to help rem ind the user to apply or remove a Cover. 6. Insert the probe end into a cover in the box. Push the handle firmly until you feel the cover "snap" into place . 7. Wait fo r a short "beep." 8. Take appropriate temperature (oral , axillary or rGctal). 9. Eject used cover into bio-waste container by pressing top button . 10. Remove , discard and replace box when empty.
Changing Isolation Chambers and Probes 1. For aiding in infection control, use only the BLUE probe and BLUE Isolation Chamber for ORAL and AXILLARY temperature taking . The RED probe and RED Isolation Chamber must only be used for RECTAL temperature taking . 2. Do not attach a RED probe to a BLUE Isolation Chamber or vice-versa.

3. An icon identifying ORAL or AXILLARY mode is displayed. The RECTAL icon can not be displayed. 4. Press the ROUND button on -the front panel to select either the ORAL or AXIL LARY mode.
5. Wait for a short "beep." This indicates the unit is ready to take a temperature. 6. For ORAL temperatures, insert the probe tip into the sublingual pocket next to the frenulum linguae, (vertical fold of tissue in middle of tongue), on one side or the other, toward the back of the mouth. Note: Accurate readings can only be obtained in one of these two "heat pocket" locations as shown. Temperatures in other mouth locations could result in inaccurate temperature readings. 7. Patient's mouth must be CLOSED.
~-
8. For AXILLARY tempera tures, have the patient raise the arm, then place the probe tip in the axilla. Press gently to assure good contact. 9. Have the patient then lower ,. the arm. Hold the probe almost parallel to the arm as shown. 10. If two short beeps are heard, it means the unit switched to DIRECT (slow) mode for this temperature only. See page 11 for DIRECT mode operation.
11. A "Iong beepll is sounded when measurement is complete and the final temperature is displayed. FILAC* FASTEMP* Electronic Thermometer

12. To change between Celsius and Fahrenheit scales, press the OF / °C but ton. Press again as needed. 13. Eject used cover into a bio-waste container by pushing top button. 14. After returning the probe to its sheath, the temperature is stored for recall until the probe is once again withdrawn. If the probe is returned to its sheath before the Iflong beep" is heard , no temperature will be stored for the recall function.
Rectal Temperature Taking 1. Make certain that the RED Isolation Chamber/Probe unit is attached. 2. Withdraw the probe and apply a probe cover. Thermometer turns on automatically.
e
3. An icon identifying RECTAL mode is always displayed pro vided the RED Isolation Chamber/Probe unit is attached. Pressing the ROUND button on the front panel to change modes has no effect. 4. Wait for a "short beep." This indicates the unit is ready to take a tempera ture. 5. Insert the probe into the patient's rectum. To ensure proper tissue contact, angle the probe slightly after insertion. 6. Depth of insertion is recommended at 1/2" to 3/4/1 (12 mm - 19 mm) for adults and 1/4" to 1/2" (6 mm - 13 mm) for children. 7. If two short beeps are heard, it means the unit switched to DIRECT (slow) mode for this temperatu re only. See page 11 for DIRECT mode operation . 8. A "long beep" is sounded wnen measurement is complete and the final tem perature is displayed. ' ' 9. To change between Celsius and Fahrenheit scales, press the °F/oC button. Press again as needed. 10. Eject used cover into a bio-waste container by pushing top button. 11.

Direct Mode 1. Filac* FasTemp* normally operates in fast PREDICTIVE mode for accurate temperature measuring. In certain cases, such as with a hypothermic patient, the thermometer will automatically shift to DIRECT (slow) mode and will then act as a temperature monitor. 2. The Filac* FasTemp* can be set to only operate in DIRECT mode (disable PREDICTIVE mode) . See page 13 to lock DIRECT mode on . 3. In 01 RECT mode this device requires several minutes to reach equilibrium and display patient temperature. 4. Turtle icon will be continuously displayed whenever the ther mometer is functioning in DIRECT mode.

6. UP or DOWN arrow will also display in the temperature line whenever current temperature reading is out of range, either HIGH or LOW, respectively.
t
7. DIRECT mode auto feature is always functional regardless of attachment to RED or BLU E isolation chamber/ Probe units. 8. A "long beep" is sounded when measurement is complete and the final tem ,perature is displayed. 9. After returning the probe to its sheath, the temperature is stored for recall until the probe is once again withdrawn. If the probe is returned to its sheath before the "long beep" is heard, no temperature will be stored for the ~ recall function.
Recall Last Temperature 1. After each temperature measurement, a "long beep" is heard. That means the temperature has been stored and is available for recall. This tempera ture can be recalled after the probe is returned to its sheath. 2. To recall this temperature, press OF / °C button on the front panel. 3. Press again to change between Celsius and Fahrenheit scales, as many times as desired. , 4. Withdrawing probe from sheath cancels last temperature memory.

XI. Customer Service The circuitry of the Filac* FasTemp* is not customer serviceable. In particular, electronic assembly rework will likely affect accuracy. Certain replacement items such as probes, iso-chambers, and battery covers are available from the service centers listed below. All service personnel must be properly trained, qualified and familiar with opera tion of the thermometer. Improper service may impair proper operation of the Filac* FasTemp*. A FasTemp Calibration Plug (reorder number 202099) is available to check accuracy of the Filac* FasTemp. It replaces the regular probe and verifies the accuracy of the main-unit electronics. Replace the main unit if accuracy is defi cient (error greater than ±0.1 QC). Follow the instructions that accompany the FasTemp Calibration plug. Probe accuracy can be checked by using the thermometer as you would on a patient in any mode with a cover, but place it in a calibrated waterbath. Direct mode is accurate to ±0.1 QC of the calibrated waterbath temperature. Predict mode accuracy is accurate to ±0.2QC of the calibrated waterbath temperature. The probe cable connector is designed to exceed 1,000 insertions. Do not lubricate or solvent clean. Replace the probe if the connector is thought to be faulty. See Section IV. A 9-Volt Lithium battery may be used as an alternative to alkaline to provide longer operation periods. See Section VI . In the event that it becomes necessary to return a unit for service, please follow these instructions: 1. Call the appropriate phone number listed below for an Authorized Return Number and shipping instructions. 2. Pack the instrument carefully and ship insured parcel to the appropriate location: .r-
