TOPCOM EAR THERMOMETER 200
1INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of the Ear Thermometer 200. We hope you will enjoy using the thermometer and the benefits it offers.
The Ear Thermometer 200 uses infrared technology to measure infrared energy emitted from the eardrum and surrounding tissue, and then converts it into temperature value.
2ABOUT BODY TEMPERATURE
Normal human body temperature fluctuates throughout the day; generally, lowest in the morning, highest in the evening.
Different parts of human body also have different temperatures. Therefore, the standards of measuring oral, axillary, rectal and ear temperatures are different. The human body temperature is controlled and adjusted by the hypothalamus in the brain. As the veins flow through the hypothalamus, they also flow through the
Normal body temperature is a range, not a fixed value. When using an IR ear thermometer to take temperature, the normal body temperature range is 35.8 °C - 38.0 °C Also, people's normal temperature ranges tend to decrease with their age.
However, the normal range is also different from person to | Temperature of Armpit | Temperature of Ear |

person. To determine your and your family members'
normal temperature ranges is very important. It can be done easily by using our Infrared Ear Thermometer. Please practice to take temperatures on yourself and your healthy family members to determine their normal temperature ranges.
