Caution:
Allow 30 minutes for both patient and thermometer to become
accustomed to existing environmental conditions prior to measurement.
Caution:
Wherever possible, measurements should be taken by pointing the
infrared sensor at the same area of the forehead. Temperatures measured at
different measurement sites on the temples, on opposite sides of the head,
or on different body parts can vary considerably.
Caution:
Avoid taking temperature measurements for at least 30 minutes
after physical activity, bathing, swimming, consuming food or beverages,
or spending time outdoors.
Caution:
Wait at least 1 minute between temperature measurements.
Repeating measurements more often may compromise the accuracy of
the readings.
Caution:
When taking patient temperature, avoid pointing the infrared
sensor at any heat source other than the patient. When using in object mode,
be sure to point sensor directly at the object being measured.
Caution:
Holding the thermometer for an excessive period of time or exposing
the device to external heat sources may result in distorted temperature readings.
