Important Safety Information
• If the forehead is cold, wait until the forehead is warmed up before taking a temperature measurement. The measured result may
indicate low when you use an ice bag or an ice pack, or immediately after coming in from the outside in winter.
• Do not use the unit when wet after swimming, bathing, or through sweating after physical exercise, as skin temperature
may have fallen. Wipe away moisture and allow 30 minutes for the body to acclimatize to room temperature before
measuring.
• Do not touch the probe lens with a finger or breathe on it.
• Do not attempt measurements when the unit is wet as inaccurate readings may result.
• Check the icon on the display before and after the measurement so that the measurement is taken in the appropriate
mode.
• When taking the temperature of an object with low emissivity such as gold or aluminum, inaccurate readings may result.
• When taking the temperature of something with low emissivity (such as milk) in surface measurement mode, slightly lower
readings may result.
• When you inform your doctor of your temperature, make sure you state that you measured the temperature from the
forehead.
