t
Children may try to measure by themselves and cause damage to the ear. If a child accidentally
swallows a battery or other component, immediately consult with the doctor.
If there is a di
ff
erence in temperature between the place where the unit is stored and the place where
your are going to measure, leave the unit in the room where you are going to use form more than
thirty minutes, then measure.
t
Correct measurement result may not be possible.
Don’t throw the battery into

unit.
To make the measurement data reliable and stable, when ambient temperature varies a lot, the
thermometer should be placed indoors for about 30 minutes before using.
When we measure somebody continuously, the temperature should be measured every minute, if
you need to measure yourself Continuously for a short time, there are some slight errors when you
read the temperature ,which is a normal phenomenon. At this time, we should choose the average.
We recommend that you measure yourself continuously maximum of three in a unit of time, and
because the temperature of the human will conduct to the thermometer, it may a
ff
ect the accuracy
of measurement.
There is no absolute standard about the temperature of the human, so please try to collect the
recording of Individual temperature in the usual, as a reference for having a fever or not.
Do not measure if that patient is treated with certain drug therapies.
In order to ensure the accuracy of measurement data, please don’t take measurement of body
temperature in strong electromagnetic interference environment (such as microwave, high frequency
equipment operation environment).
