HELPFUL GUIDELINES

Some helpful guidelines for best results when using the Vicks Professional Thermometer:

Practice until you receive consistent readings

Call your doctor when your child has diarrhea, vomiting or changes in appetite, lethargy (sluggishness) or is unusually sleepy.

It is important to know each individual’s “Normal” temperature when they are well. This is the only way to accurately diagnose a fever. Take multiple readings when healthy to determine “Normal” temperature. A child’s normal temperature can be as high as 99.9°F.

CAUTIONS

1.Temperature may only be taken by 3 methods: oral, underarm and rectal.

2.For hygienic purposes, Vicks recommends applying a probe cover for each use. (Probe covers sold separately)

3.Do not use this thermometer near combustible agents.

4.Never use an abrasive cleanser.

5.DO NOT SUBMERGE IN WATER.

6.Store in a cool, dry place at room temperature that is not in direct sunlight.
