Temperature readings are different from person to person and also vary
depending upon the body location from which the temperature is measured.
Ear temperatures tend to be comparable to oral temperatures and
approximately 1˚ lower than rectal temperatures for the same individual.
Temperature readings can also be affected by other factors, including exercise,
consuming hot or cold food/beverages prior to taking a reading, and technique.
“Normal” temperature refers to each individual’s average temperature while
healthy. You may want to measure and record your child’s temperature a few
times when he or she is well, so that you will know what is normal for your
own child. On average, temperature ranges are as follows:
Thermometer stores the last 30 measurements in memory. When a new
reading is taken, the oldest memory
(30)
is deleted and the newest reading
becomes 1.
ToScrollThroughMemory:
With the unit on, press and release
M
to see the most recent reading. The
temperature will display with
1
below it, with the object or ear mode icon
and the date and time of measurement. Press
M
again to see the next
reading in memory. It will have a
2
below it, to indicate that it is the second
oldest reading.
Repeat to see additional readings
Hint: To scroll faster through memory, you may want to turn off sound.
