5. After about 1 second, the measurement
result appears and the backlighting illumi-
nates for 5 seconds.
- If temperature taken is less than 37,6°C,
the fever indicator lights up in green.
- If the temperature taken is 37,6°C or hig-
her, the fever indicator lights up in red.
If you do not press any key for one minute,
the thermometer switches off automatically.
6. Clean the thermometer tip after every use
and dispose of the single-use protective
cap. To do so, use a soft cloth or a cotton
bud that can be moistened with disin-
fectant, alcohol or warm water.
8.2 Measuring forehead temperature
The thermometer measures the infrared radiation emitted
by the skin on the forehead, by the temple area and by the
surrounding tissue. Ensure the mode switch is set to Forehead
temperature measurement. Infrared radiation is captured by
the sensors and converted to temperature values. The most
accurate values are obtained when you scan the entire area
from one temple to the other.
Always use the forehead attachment for forehead temperature
measurements. Do not use a single-use protective cap intended
for ear temperature measurements when taking the forehead
temperature as this will distort the result.
Please note when taking a temperature on the
forehead:
Note that forehead and temples must be free of sweat and
cosmetics and that consumption of vasoconstrictor medica-
tions and skin irritations can distort the result when taking
forehead temperature.
Please note that forehead temperature can be affected by
being outdoors for longer periods (e.g. by the cold during
winter or by intensive sunshine during the summer) as well
as by wearing headgear. It is recommended to measure
forehead temperature only after having rested at room tem-
perature for at least 30 minutes.
We recommend you always measure over the same region,
as the values displayed could otherwise vary.
