Why Braun Sensian™ 7?
Measurement in under 2 seconds
The innovative infrared technology allows measurement of forehead
temperature in under 2 seconds whether you use the contact or non-contact
option .
Accurate and reliable
Due to the unique technology, the Braun Sensian™ 7 thermometer captures
the heat naturally given off by the forehead to calculate body temperature
value . Get the same professional accuracy whether touching your child's
forehead or holding up to 2 .5cm away .
Easy to use
The Braun Sensian™ 7 Non-contact forehead thermometer is non-invasive .
A measurement can be taken even while a child is sleeping .
The Braun Sensian™ 7 thermometer is safer to use on a child than a rectal
thermometer and is easier to use than other methods .
Safe and hygienic
Non-contact option helps minimize spreading of germs .
Completely safe for use on children and adults .
How does Braun Sensian™ 7 work?
The Braun Sensian™ 7 Non-contact forehead thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from
the skin at the center of the forehead just above the eyebrows . This captured energy is collected
through the lens and converted to an oral equivalent value .
The Braun Sensian™ 7 thermometer has been clinically tested and proven to be safe and
accurate when used in accordance with its operating instruction manual.
Age Precision™ Technology
Clinical research shows the definition of fever changes as newborns grow into children and
children grow into adults .

Temperature taking hints
It is important to know each individual's normal temperature when they are well . This is the only
way to accurately diagnose a fever . Take multiple readings when healthy to determine normal
temperature .
2 sec
A child's normal temperature can be as high as 37 .7 °C (99 .9 °F) or as low as 36 .1 °C (97 .0 °F) . Be sure
to note this unit reads 0 .5 °C (0 .9 °F) lower than a rectal digital measurement .
An individual must be inside for 30 minutes before taking a measurement.
Note: The thermometer and individual should be in the same ambient temperature for at
least 10 minutes.
ALWAYS hold the thermometer and the forehead steady when taking a reading . DO NOT move the
thermometer until you hear the final beep . DO NOT take a measurement while or immediately
after nursing a baby .
Individuals should not drink, eat, or be physically active before/while taking the measurement .
Remove hats and wait 10 minutes before taking a measurement .
Before taking a measurement, remove dirt or hair from the forehead area . Wait 10 minutes after
cleaning before taking measurement .
ALWAYS take the temperature exactly as directed . Temperature results may vary if positioned in
the wrong location .
For individuals measuring their own temperature, it is recommended to use the contact option
instead of non-contact .
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 the first 100 days .
•
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
measurement .
•
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 .
