3 | taking the temperature
This thermometer is designed for use in the ear (ear passage /
eardrum) usually for persons older than 6 months. With children
under 6 months, the ear passage is still very narrow so that the
temperature of the eardrum can often not be recorded and
the measurement result displayed is too low. Before taking the
temperature, remove the protective cap and ensure that the sensor
tip and also
the ear passage are clean. If there are signs of acute inflammation
(discharge of pus or secretion, pain), in the case of injuries or
directly after operations on the ear, the non-affected ear should be
chosen. Otherwise, the measurement result can be incorrect. Use of
the thermometer by different persons can be inappropriate
in certain acute infectious diseases because of the possible spread of
germs despite cleaning and disinfection. Discuss this with your doctor
in the individual case. The thermometer must only be used without
disposable covers. There is already a battery in it already so it can be
used immediately when operated for the first time.

mode when it is next turned on.

slightly up and backwards before inserting the sensor tip.

approx. 1 second.

recorded temperature.
• When the ear symbol in the display is no longer flashing and 2 short
signals have sounded, the device is ready for further measurements.
• If you now take further measurements without switching off the
device in between, only the last recorded measurement is stored.
• Measurements can be repeated up to 3 times especially in newborn
infants, in sick and feverish children or when you have insufficient
experience with this type of temperature measurement.
