7. Measuring in forehead mode
The thermometer measures the infrared radiation emitted by the skin in the
forehead and temple area and the surrounding tissue. The radiation is picked up
by the sensor and converted into temperature values. The most precise values are
obtained when you scan the entire area starting from the middle of the forehead
towards over the temple.
1. Please check that the mode switch is in the right position.
You
must switch on the device before taking a measurement. To do this, please
press the On/Off button (O/I). All symbols will be shown in the display for two
seconds.
2. The device shows the value last measured for three seconds.
3. The temperature display then goes out. On the display, you will see the
forehead symbol . The device is ready for the measurement as soon as the
"°C" symbol flashes.
4. Position the thermometer in the middle of the forehead at a distance of
3 – 5 cm from the skin.
5. Press the SCAN button to start the measurement.
6. Move the thermometer, starting in the centre of the forehead (approx. 1 cm
above the eyebrow), evenly along the forehead towards over the temple.
The blue positioning light shines for the duration of the measurement. The
measuring distance is correct if the light circle forms a clear outline on the
forehead. The forehead measurement takes 3 seconds. At the end of the
measurement, the positioning light goes out and the display lights up blue or
red, depending on the temperature value.
7. Read the measured temperature from the display. The result is displayed for
five seconds and then the flashing "°C" symbol appears in the display. The
device is now ready for the next measurement.
