Forehead measurement
 Place the probe gently onto the area approximately 1cm
above the center of the eyebrow. If the eyebrow area is
covered with hair, sweat or dirt, please remove the
obstacle beforehand to improve the reading accuracy.
 Press the START button 2 once and release it. Start to
move the device steadily from 1 cm above the center of
the eyebrow to the temple area. A long beep sound will
emit after 3 seconds to acknowledge the completion of
measurement. If the probe movement is too slow to
reach the temple area before the long beep sound is
heard, repeat the measurement as described above, but
simply move the probe a little quicker this time.
 Read the recorded temperature from the LCD display.
