by squeezing on the
ridges with your thumb,
and pushing away as
indicated. Use both
thumbs if necessary.

The TemporalScanner is an optical instrument. Like a camera or eye glasses, a dirty
lens will distort the view. If the thermometer is unable to see the heat clearly, it will be
unable to measure it accurately, resulting in low readings.
Cleaning the Instrument
