For Axillary (Underarm) Measurement
The thermometer is ready to use when the body part symbol is flashing.
Press the Mode button until you see the Axillary measurement icon. Once the icon is showing, allow the thermometer to stay idle for 8 seconds before taking a measurement.
Make sure the underarm is dry and there is no material between the side and the arm. Hold the arm close to the side for 5 minutes before taking a temperature reading. Point the thermometer upward and place the tip well in the underarm.
Hold the thermometer with the tip slightly bent and the arm firmly pressed against the side for approximately 10 seconds. You will hear a 5 beeps when the temperature reading is complete.
