7. Replace the probe cover after each measurement. To do this,
please follow the instruction in point 5 „How to reload a new

NOTE:
• Always take the temperature in the same ear, since the tem-
perature readings may be different from the right ear and left
ear.
• Please wait for a few minutes to take the ear temperature after
sleeping.
• In the following situations it is recommended that three
temperatures in the same ear be taken and the highest
one taken as the reading:
1) New born infants in the first 100 days.
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 IR thermome-
ter for the first time until he/she has
familiarized himself/herself with the instrument and
obtains consistent readings.
4) If the measurement is surprisingly low.
In case of doubt a comperative measurement is recommen-
ded.

pared because the normal body temperature varies between dif-
ferent measurement sites and the time of the day, being highest
in the evening and lowest about one hour before waking up.
