months. Failure to comply with this recommendation may lead to fluid leakage,
warming up or disintegration of the battery, and as a result, damage to the
device.
l
The device is not suitable for sterilization. The device is not intended for work
in the OXYGEN ONCENTRATION area.
l
Remove the device, batteries, accessories and packaging after use in
accordance with the applicable regulations on waste disposal.
l
Check the condition of the device before each use. Do not use a damaged
product. Continuous use of a damaged device may result in injury, getting
incorrect results or serious danger.
l
The device should not be disassembled, repaired or modified by yourself.
NOTE:
swallowing the battery may be fatal. If the battery is swallowed by a

RANGE OF BODY TEMPERATURE
Body temperature means internal temperature of body. Normal temperature
means that of a healthy person and has little change within short range.
Temperature of a person measured in the evening is normally 0.5°C (16.9°F)
higher than in the early morning and is also affected by the environment, time
and activeness. The chart below shows the average of normal changes. Refer to
it to found out the personal normal temperature range.

We recommend to use the infrared
thermometer to determine the
normal temperature range.
The temperature results depend on the method of measurement.
l
Keep the thermometer away from children and household animals.
l
The temperature measurement should be carried out under the
care of adult. You must not allow your child to remove the battery
cover, remove and eventually, swallow the battery.

8. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS CONCERNING
MEASURING TEMPERATURE ON THE FOREHE
AD
1) What is the temperature measured on the forehead?
The temperature on the forehead corresponds to the temperature under the
skin (within the arteries). It is the best way to measure body temperature
because measurement errors and time delay does not influence on the result, as
in the case of the oral or rectal method.
2) How to measure the temperature on the forehead correctly?
The thermometer should be directed towards the center of the forehead at a
distance of 5-10 cm. Nothing should cover the measurement area (hair, wig, hat,
bandages). Otherwise the results can be incorrect. Press the button
"SCAN" to get a result.
3) Why the temperature measurement on the forehead is more accurate
than the measurement in ear?
In the case of measurement on the forehead, the forehead area is scanned at an
angle the temperature released by the flow of arterial blood under the skin, and
we do not need to worry about the correct position during the measurement.
The measurement is delicate and non-invasive. The measurement in the ear is
less accurate because the position of the probe in the wire the auditory
influence has an effect on the accuracy of the measurement.
If the following circumstances occur, it is recommended to make at least three
measurements, and the highest result should be considered as the most
reliable:
l
Infants under 3 months old.
l
Children under 3 years old with weakened immune system.
l
If you use an infrared thermometer for the first time. If you do not obtain
accurate and permanent readings, repeat the measurements several times
