temperature changes in the product.
A disposable sheath (D) is necessary for the middle ear reading
mode, and the tip for the forehead thermometer mode (C). Otherwi-
se, the apparatus may not take the temperature reading and the
symbol will flash on the LCD.
In order to avoid deviations in the temperature reading, ensure that
the ear and forehead are clean.
Any scratches on the membrane of the disposable sheath may lead
to inaccurate readings.
If the LCD display does not change when you press any of the but-
tons, remove the batteries from the battery compartment and then
insert them again.
Do not use the thermometer to take the ear temperature reading if
you have any inflammation or injury to this area.
We recommend taking a reading on a normal day when you feel well
in order tohave a reference of the regular temperature. This allows
you to see the difference.
Keep in mind that the forehead and ear readings do not necessa-
rily have to display the same result, since there can be variations
between one reading and another.
Steps for taking a reading:
- Press the on/off button (E).
- The LCD screen will turn blue displaying all the colour values (Fig.
1) and you will hear an alarm. After this initial check, the display
will show the temperature 0.0 indicating that it is now ready to take
a reading.

1. Press and hold down the on/off button until the display shows

ton to change from Celsius to Fahrenheit or vice versa.
2. To change the reading unit again, proceed as above.

EAR reading mode:
Ensure that the disposable sheath is firmly fitted onto the product
and that the symboldoes not appear on the screen
.
In order to prevent the transmission of germs, use a new sheath
every time you use the product. If the sheath or its membrane tear,
discard and replace with a new one.
Straighten up the ear canal by tugging the ear slightly upwards and
backwards. This allows both the tip and lens of the temperature
sensor to be directed to the eardrum (Fig. 4).
Slowly insert the tip into the ear canal and press the temperature
scan button for 1 second to start the reading. When you hear a
beep, this means that the reading has been completed.
