TEMPERATURE READINGS
Temperature readings vary from person to person. Although there is no one “normal” temperature reading, a
temperature, taken orally, ranging between 97°F and 100°F is considered normal. A rectal temperature is generally
1° higher and an underarm (axillary) temperature will be 1° lower.
The best method to determine your own normal temperature is to use the thermometer when you are feeling well.
Record your reading twice a day (early morning and late afternoon). Take the average of the two temperatures.
This is considered your normal body temperature. Any variation from it may indicate some sort of illness
and you should consult your physician.
BEFORE USE
Your VICKS®SpeedReadTM Digital Thermometer is a 3-in-1 thermometer
for oral, rectal, or underarm use. Whichever method is used, it is
recommended that for 15 minutes prior to use, avoid eating or drinking
any liquids, exercising, taking showers or baths or smoking.
PROBE COVERS
Disposable probe covers are provided with your VICKS®SpeedReadTM Digital Thermometer. Place a cover on the
probe tip each time the thermometer is used to help prevent spread of germs. Additional probe covers can be
purchased at most drug stores or pharmacy departments.
OPERATING YOUR VICKS®SPEED-READ
TM
DIGITAL
THERMOMETER
1. Turn unit on by pressing the On/Off button (Fig. 1).
2. Wait for unit to get ready
– A beep will sound and the display will show a test (Fig. 2).
– After about 5 seconds, the display will show it's ready (Fig. 3).
ORAL USE
1. It is suggested to use a probe cover for Oral Use. Discard the probe cover after taking
a temperature.
2. It is important to place the tip of the thermometer well under the tongue to get a good,
accurate reading. (Fig. 4) Place sensor tip in areas marked with “✓”. Keep mouth
closed and sit still to help ensure an accurate measurement.
3. When the peak temperature is reached (usually 12 seconds), 10 beep signals will
sound and the “°F” sign will stop flashing. The temperature is now ready to read and
will not change when the thermometer is removed.
4. Turn the thermometer off by pressing the On/Off button. If you forget to turn it off,
the thermometer will automatically turn off after approximately 10 minutes.
5. Dispose of used probe cover and wash the thermometer as recommended.
UNDER-THE-ARM (AXILLARY) USE
This method is used for babies and young children.
1. Wipe the underarm with a towel.
2. Place the probe tip under the arm so the tip is touching the skin and position
your arm next to your body (Fig. 5). With a young child, it is sometimes
helpful to hug the child to keep their arm next to their body. This ensures that
the room air does not affect the reading.
3. When the peak temperature is reached (usually 11 seconds but sometimes longer for this method), 10 beep
signals will sound and the “°F” sign will stop flashing. The temperature is now ready to read and will not change
when the thermometer is removed.
Note: This method produces a temperature 1° lower than a temperature taken orally.
4. Turn the thermometer off by pressing the On/Off button. If you forget to turn it off, the thermometer will
automatically turn off after approximately 10 minutes.
5. Wash the thermometer as recommended.

RECTAL USE
Commonly used for babies, young children, or when it is difficult to take an oral or underarm temperature.
1. Cover the thermometer’s tip with a probe cover and lubricate with a water-soluble jelly for easier insertion. Do
not use a petroleum jelly. Read the label of the lubricant to be sure you are using the right kind.
2. Lay the patient on his/her side. If the patient is an infant, the proper position for a baby is to lay on its stomach
with legs hanging down, either across your knees or at the edge of a bed or changing table. This positions the
infant’s rectum for safe and easy insertion of the thermometer.
3. Gently insert the tip of the thermometer NO MORE THAN 1/2 inch into the rectum. If you detect resistance, stop.
Hold the thermometer in place during measurement.
4. When the peak temperature is reached (usually 10 seconds) 10 beep signals will sound and the “°F” sign will
stop flashing. The temperature is now ready to read and will not change when the thermometer is removed.
NOTE: This method produces a temperature 1° higher than a temperature taken orally.
5. Turn the thermometer off by pressing the On/Off button. If you forget to turn it off, the thermometer will
automatically turn off after approximately 10 minutes.
6. Dispose of used probe cover and wash the thermometer as recommended.
TO RECALL THE LAST TEMPERATURE
When the thermometer is turned on, continue to hold the button down approximately 2 seconds. The last measured
temperature will be shown in the LCD display with the letter “M” shown under the degree sign for approximately 3
seconds, then unit will shut off.
