During Use; Forehead Measurement - Beurer medical FT 60 Mode D'emploi

6. During use

Always ensure that the sensor is clean and undamaged. Switch on the thermometer with the " " button.

6.1 Forehead measurement

After a short self-test and two short beeps, the thermometer is ready for measuring the temperature at the forehead/tem-
ple. The infrared thermometer is in 'Forehead thermometer' mode. This is indicated by the symbol .
Note that
– the thermometer must have been at least 30 minutes in the room in which the measurement is made,
– the measuring result may be falsifi ed by physical activity, fundamentally increased sweat formation on the forehead,
consumption of vasoconstrictive medications and skin irritations,
– the forehead or temple must be free of sweat and cosmetics.
Apply the thermometer to the left or right temple and press the "SCAN" button. Move the thermometer to
and over the temple. During the measurement you can hear short beeps signalling that the thermometer
has found a new maximum temperature. The end of the measuring time is signalled with a long beep. Re-
lease the "SCAN" button. You can now read off the temperature measured. The LED is also illuminated
according to the test result: a green LED indicates that body temperature is within the normal range, but
a red LED lights up with measured values over 37.5 °C, i.e. it is a fever alarm. The measurement normally
takes from 5 to 8 seconds, but can take up to 30 seconds.
The thermometer signals with two short beeps and a no longer flashing forehead symbol that the thermometer is ready for
a new measurement.
6.2 Saving the temperatures measured
The temperature last measured, i.e. only the last temperature of a series measured, is saved automatically as soon as the
thermometer is switched off. There are 9 memory locations available for this.
You can call up the last temperature measured with the " " button. The date and time are also shown. The LED does not
support any requests for stored measured values. If you continue to hold down the " " , you will enter a special measu-
ring mode, in which the thermometer will not make a correct measurement. In this event, allow the thermometer to switch
off automatically after about 1 minute and then switch it on again.
