cap in place.
• The following circumstances may influence the temperature
in the ear: if you have been lying on the ear for an extended
period, the ears are covered, the ears are exposed to exces­
sive heat/cold, or after swimming or bathing. In the event
of one of these circumstances, wait 20 minutes before per­
forming the measurement.
