Care and cleaning
Braun ThermoScan probe covers are intended for single use
only! To ensure accurate readings, always use Braun
ThermoScan disposable probe covers with the Pro 3000
thermometer. Damaged, perforated, or soiled probe covers
can lead to inaccurate temperature readings. Additionally,
the accuracy of your temperature readings can be affected by
damage to the probe window, or the presence of dirt and ear
wax on the probe window.
Probe Window
To assure a high level of accuracy, it is very important to keep this
window clean, dry and undamaged. Fingerprints, earwax, dust and
other soiling compounds reduce transparency of the window and
result in lower temperature readings. If the thermometer is
accidentally placed in the ear without a probe cover installed,
the window must be cleaned immediately. Additionally, the window
and/or probe tip area should never be modified, changed, or
adjusted. These changes will affect calibration and accuracy of
the thermometer.
To clean the window, gently wipe its surface with a cotton swab
slightly moistened with alcohol and immediately wipe dry with a
clean cotton swab. After cleaning, allow at least 5 minutes drying
time before taking temperatures. Make sure probe window is clean
and dry. Avoid touching the window except when cleaning is
required. If the window is damaged, the thermometer must be
returned to Welch Allyn for service.
Note: Do not use any chemical other than alcohol to clean
the probe window.
Thermometer
Use a soft, cloth slightly moistened with alcohol to clean the
thermometer display and exterior. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Never submerge the thermometer in water or any other liquid.
Store thermometer and probe covers in a dry location free from dust
and contamination and away from direct sunlight. The ambient
temperature at the storage location should remain fairly constant
and within the range of 10°C - 40°C (50°F to 104°F).
