HOW TO TAKE A TEMPERATURE READING
5.The thermometer automatically powers off after 30 seconds. To protect the ear thermometer, replace the thermometer in its protective case. Store the thermometer in a dry place at room temperature.
Before measuring, check the following: - Has one probe cover been installed?
- Is the probe tip clean?
NOTES:
-When a measurement is to be taken at a room temperature greater than 34ºC/ 93.2ºF , insert the thermometer into the ear, THEN press the START button.
-Do not keep the thermometer inserted into the ear for a long period of time. Do not measure more than five times consecutively.
-We recommend taking three readings and using the highest reading.
-When consulting a physician, be sure to tell the physician that this is ear temperature. The normal range of ear temperature is similar to the familiar oral scale.
