technical advice.
13. Do not use the 6-in-1 Thermometer on a person whilst
making a phonecall with a mobile or cordless telephone or
near to strong electro-magnetic fields.
14. Avoid knocking and dropping the 6-in-1 Thermometer,
and do not use if damaged or not functioning properly.
2.2. ATTENTION
1. Failure to observe the above-mentioned warnings (no.
2.1) may lead to very low or very high temperature
readings, which would not be a malfunction of this product.
2. The projection lights meet the photo-biological safety
requirements outlined in standard EN 62471. No harm will
be caused if the projection lights are accidentally shone
into the eyes: the beams are harmless!
3. This device is a delicate measurement instrument and
must not be used by children.
It is not a toy
. Keep out of
reach of children or persons with reduced manipulative
skills. Small parts can be ingested or inhaled.
4. This thermometer is not a substitute for medical
consultation. You should not use the reading from this
device to diagnose or treat a health problem. If you suspect
a medical problem, you should consult your doctor
immediately. Ensure you tell your doctor what type of
thermometer you are using and from which part of the body
the temperature reading was taken.
5. If a child is moving about, making it difficult to take a
correct reading, approach the child confidently and try to
take the temperature as quickly as possible.
6. When taking your own temperature, use a mirror or the
screen of a smartphone to ensure the position is correct in
order to give an accurate reading.
7. Since the 6-in-1 Thermometer is a non-contact device, it
does not require any “disposable” protection covers.
3. HOW IT WORKS
The 6-in-1 Thermometer detects the infrared radiation
produced by the human body.
The forehead is an ideal site for taking a temperature
reading, as it is crossed by the temporal artery and is in
direct contact with the brain.
Finally, the head is the first part of the body to change its
temperature as a fever rises and falls.
With each temperature measurement, your 6-in-1
Thermometer takes a series of 125 readings in a tenth of a
second. Its sophisticated microprocessor then amplifies
and processes this information along with the room
temperature and shows the correct body temperature in the
projection.
It is important to remember that there is not one single
"normal" temperature which applies to everyone
– a
person’s temperature varies according to the
measurement’s location and at different times throughout
the day, also in response to physical or mental stress (for
example, a baby
’s crying). Moreover, the body temperature
can be affected by the outside temperature and, depending
on the type of reading taken, other factors may also come
into play.
Due to heat dispersion from uncovered parts of the body,
the actual temperature at the forehead is generally lower
than that in covered areas.
