With its unique technology, this device can provide a stable, heat-interference-free reading with each measurement. The device performs a self-test every time it is switched on to always guarantee the specified accuracy of any measurement. This Microlife thermometer is intended for the periodic measurement and monitoring of human body temperature.
This thermometer has been clinically tested and proven to be safe and accurate when used in accordance to the operating instruction manual.
Please read through these instructions carefully in order for you to understand all functions and safety information.

1. The Advantages of this Thermometer

Measures in a matter of seconds
The innovative infrared technology allows the measurement without even touching the object. This guarantees safe and sanitary measurements within seconds.

Multiple uses (wide range of measurement)
This thermometer offers a wide range of measurement from 0.1 – 99.9 °C / 32.2 – 211.8 °F, meaning the unit can be used to measure body temperature or it also has a feature allowing it to be used to measure surface temperature of the following examples:

  • Milk surface temperature in a baby’s bottle
  • Surface temperature of a baby’s bath
  • Ambient temperature

Accurate and reliable
The unique probe assembly construction incorporates an advanced infrared sensor, ensuring that each measurement is accurate and reliable.

Gentle and easy to use

  • The ergonomic design enables simple and easy use of the thermometer.
  • This thermometer can even be used on a sleeping child without causing any interruption.
  • This thermometer is quick, therefore child-friendly.

Multiple readings recall
Users will be able to recall the last 30 readings with a record of both time and date when entering the recall mode, enabling efficient tracking of temperature variations.

Safe and hygienic

  • No direct skin contact.
  • No risk of broken glass or mercury ingestion.
  • Completely safe for use on children.

Fever alarm
10 short beeps and a red LCD backlight alert the patient that he/ she may have a temperature equal to or higher than 37.5 °C.

2. Important Safety Instructions
  • Follow instructions for use. This document provides important product operation and safety information regarding this device. Please read this document thoroughly before using the device and keep for future reference.
  • This device may only be used for the purposes described in these instructions. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by incorrect application.
  • Never immerse this device in water or other liquids. For cleaning please follow the instructions in the «Cleaning and Disinfecting» section.
  • Do not use this device if you think it is damaged or notice anything unusual.
  • Never open this device.
  • A basic physiological effect called vasoconstriction can occur in the early stages of fever, resulting in a cool skin effect. The recorded temperature using this thermometer can, therefore, be unusually low.
  • If the measurement result is not consistent with the patient’s finding or unusually low, repeat the measurement every 15 minutes or double check the result by another core body temperature measurement.
  • This device comprises sensitive components and must be treated with caution. Observe the storage and operating conditions described in the «Technical Specifications» section.
  • Ensure that children do not use this device unsupervised; some parts are small enough to be swallowed.
  • Do not use this device close to strong electromagnetic fields such as mobile telephones or radio installations. Keep a minimum distance of 3.3 m from such devices when using this device.
  • Protect it from:
    – extreme temperatures
    – impact and dropping
    – contamination and dust
    – direct sunlight
    – heat and cold
  • If the device is not going to be used for a prolonged period the batteries should be removed.

Warning Icon  WARNING: The measurement results given by this device is not a diagnosis.

Microlife WS 200 BT - Note NOTE:

  • Patients and thermometer should stay in similar room condition for at least 30 minutes.
  • Don’t take a measurement while or immediately after nursing a baby.
  • Don’t use the thermometer in high humidity environments.
  • Patients should not drink, eat or exercise before/while taking the measurement.
  • Don’t move the measurement device from the measuring area before hearing the termination beep.
  • 10 short beeps and a red LCD backlight alert the patient that he/she may have a temperature equal to or higher than 37.5 °C.
  • Always take the temperature in the same location, since temperature readings may vary according to locations.
  • Doctors recommend rectal measurement for newborn infants within the first 6 months, as all other measuring methods might lead to ambiguous results. If using a non contact thermometer on those infants, we always recommend verifying the readings with a rectal measurement.
  • In the following situations it is recommended that three temperatures are taken with the highest one taken as the reading:
  1. Children under three years of age with a compromised immune system and for whom the presence or absence of fever is critical.
  2. When the user is learning how to use the thermometer for the first time until he/she has familiarized himself/herself with the device and obtains consistent readings.
  3. If the measurement is surprisingly low.
  • Readings from different measuring sites should not be compared as the normal body temperature varies by measuring site and time of day, being highest in the evening and lowest about one hour before waking up.
    Normal body temperature ranges:
    – Axillar: 34.7 – 37.3 °C / 94.5 – 99.1 °F
    – Oral: 35.5 – 37.5 °C / 95.9 – 99.5 °F
    – Rectal: 36.6 – 38.0 °C / 97.9 – 100.4 °F
    – Microlife NC 150: 35.4 – 37.4 °C / 95.7 – 99.3 °F
8. Changing between Celsius and Fahrenheit

This thermometer can display temperature readings in either Fahrenheit or Celsius. To switch the display between °C and °F, simply turn OFF the unit, press and hold the START button 4 for 5 seconds; after 5 seconds, the current measurement scale («°C» or «°F» icon) will flash on the display 16. Change the measurement scale between °C and °F by pressing the START button 4. When the measurement scale has been chosen, wait for 5 seconds and the unit will automatically enter the «ready for measuring» mode.

9. How to recall 30 readings in Memory Mode

This thermometer can recall the last 30 readings with a record of both time and date.

  • Recall mode 17: Press the M-button 8 to enter recall mode when the power is off. The memory icon «M» will flash.
