INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing our BébéSounds® Ear Thermometer. This Ear Thermometer will enable you to take an accurate temperature in just one second.

The ear thermometer is a delicate electronic device designed to measure body temperature. This thermometer will provide you with an accurate and reliable temperature reading by detecting infrared heat from the eardrum. The eardrum reflects the body’s temperature because it shares blood vessels with the part of the brain that controls body temperature.

Temperature readings from an ear thermometer are considered to be as accurate as those taken orally. Please keep in mind that body temperature will differ based on a person’s age and the time of day it is taken. Temperature will also vary from ear to ear. Therefore, for best results, temperature should be taken from the same ear whenever possible.

NOTE: According to extensive clinical examinations, the temperature readings given by an ear thermometer are equivalent to those given by its oral counterparts.

Use of this ear thermometer should not replace a visit to your doctor. It is recommended that you advise your doctor any time a temperature is above 100°F/37.8°C.
