INTRODUCTION
The ARC InstaTemp MD™ is a sophisticated,
technologically advanced electronic medical
device that has been carefully engineered to
quickly and accurately measure human body
temperature without requiring any contact with
the human body. To ensure the best results with
your ARC InstaTemp MD™ thermometer, please
be sure to read the following operational and
procedural manual carefully. If you give this
device to another adult, it is vital that you
include this user manual.
Intended Use
The ARC InstaTemp MD™ is intended for use by a
Health Care Professional, in a clinical environment,
for the measurement and display of human body
temperature for patients of all ages. This device
is not intended for home use.
The CE Mark of this device refers to the
0123
EC Directive MDD 93/42/EEC.
page 2 of 36
KEY INFORMATION
Only use ARC InstaTemp MD™ in ambient
temperatures ranging from 59–95˚F (15–35˚C).
The thermometer and patient must remain in a
stable temperature environment and away from
ventilation sources and heat sources for at least
20 minutes before measuring temperature.
Always protect the sensor, which is in the recess
at the top of the device (see illustration on page
4) from shocks or contamination. See Precautions
(page 22) and Cleaning (page 25) for more details.
Package Contents
The package contains:
• The ARC InstaTemp MD™
• This instruction booklet
• Wall mount
• Retractable tether

4
SET THE UNITS
The ARC InstaTemp MD™ can display
temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees
Celsius. Follow the steps page on 7 to toggle
between °F or °C and select the preferred
measurement units for display.
5
AFFIX THE WALL MOUNT
While not in use, the ARC InstaTemp MD™ should
be stored using the wall mount. In an operational
environment make sure to secure the wall mount
away from any direct heating, cooling or
ventilation systems. Otherwise the ARC
InstaTemp MD™ should be stored in a manner
which protects the sensor from contamination or
damage. [See Carrying and Storage, page 21]
6
ATTACH THE RETRACTING TETHER
The retracting tether can be used to safely carry
the ARC InstaTemp MD™ between uses. While
not in regular use, the ARC InstaTemp MD™
should be returned to the wall mount.

OPERATIONS
Changing Between Fahrenheit and Celsius:
The ARC InstaTemp MD™ is set to Fahrenheit by
default. To change to Celcius, follow these simple
steps:
1
Press and hold the activation
button to get a reading, which
can be a temperature reading,
Lo, Hi or “---”.
2
Once the reading appears on
screen in Fahrenheit, press and
release the activation button again
—the reading will automatically
change to Celsius.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 to change back.
!
Note: Once the display units are set (°F or °C),
they remain as the default display units until
changed again

59-95°F (15-35°C). Outside of this
range, a "---" will be displayed when
a measurement is taken. Move the

The thermometer and the patient
must remain in a stable temperature
environment for at least 20 minutes
before a reading can be taken. Do not
measure the patient’s temperature
immediately after he/she has been
exposed to really cold or hot climates,
or has has consumed hot or cold food
or liquids. In these instances, wait 20
minutes before taking a temperature
reading. Do not apply any hot or cold
compress, cloth or gel, on the patient’s

CARE OF DEVICE
Do not touch the lens of the sensor.
It is the most delicate part of the ARC
InstaTemp MD™ thermometer and
must be protected from dirt and
damage.
Do not immerse the ARC InstaTemp
MD™ in water or other liquids. It is
not water resistant.
Take care not to scratch the lens
of the sensor, the display or the
housing.
Never use aggressive cleaning
agents.
When cleaning is required, the
external surfaces of the thermometer, Wall Mount and Retractable
tether can becan be safely wiped
with a cloth moistened with a 70%
IPA (isopropyl alcohol) solution.
WARNING: DO NOT immerse or
soak the thermometer in any type
of fluid, or use any heat or steam
sterilization process.

TROUBLESHOOTING
LCD/LED Display Testing
The LCD can be tested for consistency at
regular intervals, or if any LCD figures seem
incomplete, by activating the display test
mode in the following manner:
Press the activation button and hold until
after the display period is complete. The ARC
InstaTemp MD™ then enters test mode and
runs the display test once.
During Test Mode, the device behaves as
follows:
The display turns off for 1 second,
1
then turns on with all segments active.
2
The LCD then cycles through the
following sequence to exercise all the
segment combinations:
1. The tens and units values of the
display will increment from 0 to 9.
2. The hundreds unit will toggle
between the upper and lower
segment.
page 27 of 36
TROUBLESHOOTING
3. The ˚F and ˚C symbols will be
display alternately.
4. The battery symbol and decimal
point will both turn on and off
alternately.
5. The green and red LEDs will be
display alternately.
If any of the above steps fail, the device
may be faulty and should not be used.
Should this occur, please contact ARC
Devices customer service (see page 35).
