I. About Body Temperature It is a common myth that 98.6°F (37°C) is the “normal body temperature.” The truth is that 98.6°F (37°C) is an average body temperature. Normal body temperature is actually a range that varies with age, gender, and measurement site. Body temperatures also fluctuate through out the day, typically cooler temperatures in the morning, warmer in the afternoon, and cooling down again in the evening.

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.) 3. Remove probe from the probe well. This automatically turns on the thermometer. 4.
Oral & Axillary Temperature Taking 1. Make certain that the Blue isolation chamber/probe unit is attached. 2. Withdraw probe and apply a probe cover. The thermometer turns on automatically. 3. An icon identifying Oral or Axillary mode is displayed. The Rectal icon can not be displayed when a blue isolation chamber/probe is attached. 4. Press the Site button on the front panel to select either the Oral or Axillary mode. 5.
Direct Mode 1. The Filac 3000 AD/ADA Electronic Thermometer normally operates in 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 3000 AD/ADA Electronic Thermometer can be set to operate exclusively in Direct mode (disable Predictive mode).
Bio-Tech Mode (Option Configuration Menu) 1. To enter Bio-Tech mode, the thermometer must be in sleep mode (probe securely in place with blank screen). 2. Press and hold the Site and °C/°F buttons at the same time for 4 seconds. A “beep” is heard and a dash scrolls in the display. The software version of the device will be shown in the alpha-numeric section of the display 3. The thermometer is now in Bio-Tech mode. To navigate the Bio-Tech mode menu, follow the chart below. 4.

X. Troubleshooting 1. If device fails to function properly after washing & reconnecting probe, rinse all contacts in de-ionized water and blow dry. 2. Icons indicate all other possible errors and remedies. 3.
Water Bath Accuracy (35.5°C/95.9°F to 42.0°C/107.6°F): Direct Mode: Standard Prediction Mode**: Quick Prediction Mode (Oral Only)**: +/-0.1°C - +/- 0.2°F +/-0.1°C - +/- 0.2°F +/-0.3°C - +/- 0.5°F **Greater than 95% of the prediction mode readings will be within the specified accuracy. Patient Accuracy: In standard predict mode, thermometer accuracy meets EN 12470-3 A Standard Prediction Mode reading and a Direct Mode reading will differ by less than ±0.2°C (±0.
