3. How this Thermometer measures Temperature

This thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from the
eardrum and the surrounding tissue. This energy is collected
through the lens and converted 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. Fit a new Microlife branded and undamaged probe cover CK on
the measuring sensor 1.
2. Switch on the thermometer by pressing the START/IO button 6.
3. 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.
4. Place the probe 1 firmly into the ear canal. «Good» will be
displayed with a short beep to confirm the device has detected
the correct position. Press the START/IO button 6 and keep
the probe in the ear until the thermometer beeps to signal the
completion of the measurement.
