Been exposed to very hot or very cold temperatures, or
Been recently swimming or bathing
In these cases, remove the individual from the situation and wait 30 minutes prior to taking
a temperature.
- Do not remove the thermometer out of the ear canal until you hear beep at the end of the
measurement.
- This thermometer may only be used without a disposable protective cover when
measuring the ear temperature.
- Do not use ear mode to measure forehead temperature, otherwise you may get the
inaccurate measurement.
- Do not use 12Y-up mode to measure the body temperature of people aged 12 and below,
Do not use 12Y-down mode to measure the body temperature of people over 12 years old,
otherwise the measurement results may be slightly biased.
Cautions:
- In order to measure the correct temperature value, make sure that the probe is aimed at
the eardrum and closely matched with the ear canal.
- Use the untreated ear if prescription ear drops or others ear medication have been placed
in the ear canal.
- Keep the probe tip surface clean, otherwise the measurement may not be accurate.
Notes:
- Some people produce different reading in their left and right ear. In order to record
temperature changes, always measure a person’s temperature in the same ear.
9.2 Forehead temperature measurement
（
non-contact measurement
）
1) Install the batteries (please refer to ”8 Battery Installation/Replacement”);
2) Put on the forehead cap to the probe to enter the forehead mode(the Ear/forehead
mode switch is closed state), there should be no obvious gap after the cap is installed,
(The icon on LCD will disappear if the thermometer is powered on, this means that
the thermometer has successfully entered the forehead mode.)
