Rapidread Thermometer

Melhor e mais eficaz termômetro que já tive. Mede a temperatura em uns 5 segundos

There is a small mini-booklet in the package that explains how to set up the thermometer (arm, mouth, or groin) for the first time. Once this is setup, the thermometer will go through a 10 second self check, zero out the display, and within two seconds this thermometer gives wicked fast, wicked accurate results with an easy to interpret stoplight color lit screen (green, yellow, red). I don't know why anyone who gets one would buy anything else.

4. SET A PREFERRED TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT SITE To save a preferred temperature measurement site, so that the preferred site will be automatically selected when the thermometer is turned ON, follow these steps. a. Make sure the thermometer is turned OFF. b. Press and hold the blue SITE SELECTION button and, without releasing it, then press and hold the gray POWER button. Release both buttons when the site selection icon appears with 3 flashing dots. c. Press the SITE SELECTION button until the desired temperature measurement site is selected. d. Wait 4 seconds for the site indicator dot to stop flashing. e. Press the POWER button to turn the thermometer OFF. f. The preferred temperature measurement site will be automatically selected when the thermometer is turned ON. NOTE: With a preferred temperature measurement site selected, an alternate temperature measurement site can still be selected during each use by pressing the blue SITE SELECTION button when the site selection icon appears after the thermometer is turned ON. g. To remove the preferred temperature measurement site setting, open the battery door, remove the battery and reinsert it. IMPORTANT: To ensure accurate readings, you must always take a temperature reading at the site on the individual that corresponds to the site selected on the thermometer.

O produto veio com defeito, a medição da temperatura fica oscilando, um produto tão caro..

We have been buying the Vicks thermometer for many years. It's always our favorite. This one is terrible. This version has 2 buttons as compared to the old version which has only 1 button. The old 1-button version requires no directions. You press the button, it beeps, and you take your temp. The new 2-button version has instructions to explain which button does what. The top button turns it on. The bottom button selects which bodypart to use - head, armpit, butt. The LED displays a person with a dot that quickly cycles through each bodypart. You need to be fast enough to press the large button when the dot is on the bodypart you want to use. If you mistakenly select the wrong bodypart there is no way to correct your choice other than to power it off and on and repeating the ridiculous process. By this time you will have developed a fever due to aggravation. After finally figuring out how to use it, we took the temp 4 times and we got 4 different readings ranging around a half degree. They managed to "upgrade" a perfectly good product with one that is complex and non-intuitive, and inaccurate. I hope they bring back to original 1-button version.
