1 WARNINGS
• Never use the thermometer for purposes other than those it has been intended for.
• Keep out of reach of unattended children. Do not allow children to walk or run while taking a temperature.
• Prolonged high temperature requires medical attention. Contact a physician when necessary.
• Use of this Device adjacent to or stacked with other device should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this Device and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
• This thermometer uses Bluetooth Low Energy 4.0 technology. Keep the Device away from sources of high levels of electromagnetic field (in excess of 30 A/m) to reduce the likelihood of interference.
• The Device should not be relied upon where external sources of movement are present.
• Movement from external sources such as being pushed in a bassinet or traveling in a vehicle may be detected by the Device.
• The monitored child must sleep in their own separate bed as the Device may detect the movement of any other person sharing the bed with the baby and will not alarm as long as it detects movement.
• The optional Base Station needs to work with a 2.4GHz wireless network. Hotspot Wi-Fi and 5GHz Wi-Fi are not supported.
2 PRECAUTIONS
• The Sense-U Device is splash-resistant, NOT WATERPROOF. Do not immerse in water. If it gets wet, dry it out immediately.
• Do not bend or bite the probe as this may damage the probe.
• Do not use the thermometer if there are signs of damage. If damaged, do not attempt to repair. Contact customer support instead.
• Avoid exercise and drinking hot or cold beverages before taking a temperature as these activities may affect accuracy of the reading.
• If the thermometer has been stored in cold conditions, allow it to warm to room temperature before attempting a measurement.
3 MAINTENANCE
• Clean the probe before and after use with a damp, soapy cloth or by disinfecting with rubbing alcohol (70% isopropyl alcohol). Wipe dry with soft cloth.
• DO NOT BOIL OR CLEAN IN DISHWASHER. This will cause the thermometer to no longer function and will void the warranty.
• Do not wash the unit with any thinner or chemical solvent.
• Do not keep the device in direct sunlight or at high temperatures.
• Performance of the device may be degraded if device is operated or stored outside of the stated temperature ranges.
• To prolong battery life, take off the Sense-U Device when it is not in use and turn off all alarms from the Sense-U app; remove the battery if it is not in use for a long time.
4 QUICK START GUIDE
4.1 How it works?
The Sense-U Smart Thermometer (Base Station Version) is comprised of a wearable Thermometer device, a Base Station, and a Sense-U Baby App. It is intended to be used by parents to monitor their child’s body temperature, body movement during sleep, room temperature, room humidity level, and sends the real-time health data to the App.
The Base Station is intended to provide notifications, such as no body movement within 20 seconds, body temperature / room temperature / humidity level out of preset values, with light and sound notifications from the Base Station and mobile notifications from smartphone app, to support restful sleep for the child.
2.4GHz WiFi Network:
The Base Station communicates with the Sense-U Cloud via 2.4GHz WiFi network. The Sense-U Cloud enables the sleep quality data to be shown in the app. This enables real-time readings and notifications on the app from anywhere.

6 TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Where should the Sense-U Thermometer be worn?
Attach the lower strip around right chest area, and make sure the Device is securely attached.
2. What does double-shaking mean?
Shaking the Device twice to initiate Bluetooth pairing by flashing BLUE three or more (3+) times.
3. My Thermometer Device does not flash when I double shake it.
Replace with a new CR 2032 coin battery. The device restarts with a GREEN light flashing once.
4. The Thermometer cannot pair to the base station.
Steps to troubleshoot the pairing issue:
STEP 1. Make sure the Base Station is flashing GREEN before double shaking the device to pair. If not, add the Baby device again from the Sense-U App->Add Device (+ icon on home page).
STEP 2. If the device does not flash when double shaking it, remove the battery and plug in again. Replace with a new battery until it flashes GREEN once to restart.
STEP 3. If the device only flashes GREEN when double shaking it, it means it is already connected to the Base Station or another smart device. Delete the Base Station or log out that smart device first before pairing again.
STEP 4. If the device flashes BLUE but is still unable to pair, check if Bluetooth is enabled on your smart device, then move the device closer to the Base Station, and other Sense-U devices and Bluetooth devices away, and try again.
* For Android devices, please make sure Location is enabled all the time for the Sense-U Baby app in Settings->Connections->Location, and Settings->Apps->Sense-U Baby->Permissions. Or else it can not pair to the device and stay connected.
5. The Thermometer shows as Disconnected in the App.
Steps to troubleshoot the connection issue:
1) Check the battery level of the Thermometer Device by double shaking the Device to see if the indicator lights up, or from the Sense-U App->Thermometer Device Settings ( setup icon on the home page)->Device Information (three dot). Replace with a new CR 2032 battery if necessary.
2) Move your smartphone closer to the Device and restart the App if necessary.
Tips: If it reconnects after placing them closer, an optional Sense-U Base Station is recommended to keep your Thermometer Device online all the time.
6. There is no movement reading in the App.
In default, movement monitoring is turned off for power saving purpose. Turn on the Movement notification from the Sense-U App->Thermometer Device Settings ( setup icon on home screen)->Thermometer Notification and the movement reading will show up shortly after it detects movements. Restart your smart device and reopen the Sense-U App if still no luck.
7. There is no movement reading but dashes in the App.
Turn on the Movement Notification from the Sense-U App->Thermometer Device Settings ( setup icon on home screen)->Thermometer Notification and the movement reading will show up shortly after it detects body movements.
8. The Device goes off while my child looks fine.
Make sure the Device is attached securely following the instructions. Meanwhile, you can increase the Activation Period from the Sense-U App->Setup->Child’s thermometer->Manage Alerts->Movement Notification->Activation Period for shallower movement patterns.
9. There is no audible alarm from my smartphone when alarms go off.
To receive audible alarms on your smartphone, your phone should not be in Do Not Disturb mode, and notifications need to be enabled for the Sense-U App in Settings->Notifications->Sense-U. For Android devices, turn on and increase Media Volume in Settings->Sounds & Vibration->Volume.
