Taking your Temperature
Before You Start
This product is intended for household use only. lf you have questions
about the meaning of a specific temperature, please consult your
physician.
Use the thermometer at room temperature between 60.8ºF - 104.0ºF
(16ºC - 40ºC). lf the ear thermometer is stored in an environment where
the temperature is out of that range, move the thermometer to a location
with a room temperature of 60.8ºF - 104.0ºF (16ºC - 40ºC). Allow the
thermometer to equalize to that temperature range before use.
DO NOT measure temperature if:
• Your ear is cold, wet or blocked with ear wax
• lt is within 30 minutes after eating, taking a bath or physical exercise
• You are suffering from an ear infection
NOTE: Make sure the tip of the thermometer is clean. A dirty lens may cause an inaccurate
measurement. Clean the lens with a soft, alcohol moistened cloth or cotton swab. Never use an
abrasive cleaner. Never submerge the body of the thermometer in water or any other liquid.
We recommend you practice with the A&D Medical ear thermometer
on yourself and family members while you are healthy. This way you
know how the thermometer works and will feel more confident of the
measurements when you or a family member is ill.
