brow to the temple area. A long beepsound 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 beeb sound heard, repeat the measurement as above
from point 4, but simply move the probe a little quicker this time.

☞ NOTE:
• Patients and thermometer should stay in steady-state room con-
dition for at least 30 minutes.
• Don't take a measurement while or immediately after nursing a
baby.
• Don't use the forehead thermometer in high humidity environ-
ments.
• Patients should not drink, eat, or exercise before/whil taking the

26
minutes before taking a measurement on another patient.
• 10 short beeps will sound and a red LCD backlight will illumi-
nate when the temperature is higher than 37.5 °C (99.5 °F) in
order to alert the patient that he/she may have a temperature
above 37.5 °C.
• Always take the temperature in the same location, since the
temperature readings may vary from different locations.
• In the following situations it is recommended that three tem-
peratures in the same location be taken and the highest one
taken as the reading:
1. If the measurement is surprisingly low.
2. Children under three years of age with a compromised immune
system and for whom the presence or absence of fever is critical.
3. When the user is learning how to use the thermometer for the
first time until he/she has familiarized himself/herself with the
instrument and obtainsconsistent readings.
