HOW THIS THERMOMETER MEASURES
TEMPERATURE
This thermometer measures forehead and ear temperature.
FOREHEAD MEASUREMENT
This thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from the skin above the
eyebrow area and the surrounding tissue. This energy is collected through the
lens and converted to a temperature value.
Temperature readings obtained by scanning above the eyebrow area will
provide the greatest accuracy.
EAR MEASUREMENT
This thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from the eardrum and
the surrounding tissue. This energy is collected through the lens and convert
-
ed to a temperature value. The measured reading obtained directly from the
eardrum (Tympanic membrane) ensures the most accurate ear temperature.
Measurements taken from the surrounding tissue of the ear canal generate
lower readings and may result in misdiagnosis of fever.
To avoid an inaccurate measurement
1.
Switch on the thermometer by pressing the ON / OFF button
(4)
.
2. After one beep is heard (and the temperature scale icon is flashing),
straighten the ear canal by gently pulling the middle of the ear back and up.
3. Place the probe
(1)
firmly into the ear canal, press the START button
(2)
and keep the probe in the ear until the thermometer beeps to signal the
completion of the measurement.
