Cleaning the Instrument

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.

zProbe lens and cone should be shiny clean, if not, wipe with a small cloth or swab moistened with alcohol.

zHold upside-down to prevent excess moisture from entering the sensor area. It will not harm the sensor, but if it becomes too wet, you will be unable to take a temperature until it dries.

zThermometer case can be cleaned with any hospital approved disinfectant, alcohol, even bleach solutions. Avoid gritty, abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the thermometer.

zDo not hold the TemporalScanner under the faucet or submerge in water. It is not water- proof.
