Temperature taking hints (continued)
In the following situations it is recommended that three temperatures in the same
location be taken and the highest one taken as the reading:
• Newborn infants in their first 100 days of life.
• Children under three years of age with a compromised immune system and for
whom the presence or absence of fever is critical.
• When the user is learning how to use the thermometer for the first time until
he/she has familiarized himself/herself with the instrument and obtains
consistent readings.
General precautions:
• Remove any sweat prior to measuring with a dry cloth.
• Avoid any cooling or warming cloths on the forehead for at least 30 minutes
prior to measuring.
• DO NOT take temperature measurements over scar tissue, open sores,
or abrasions.
• Keep the measurement sensor and lens clean. Avoid directly touching the
sensor or lens.
• ALWAYS store the thermometer with the protective cap in place to prevent dirt
and scratches from damaging the device.
• Make sure to remove the protective cap before taking a measurement and to
put the cap back on after using the thermometer.
