swimming, consuming food and/
or hot/cold beverages or spending
time outdoors.
• Wait at least one minute between
one temperature measurement
and the next. Measurements per-
formed too frequently could result
in incorrect temperature readings.
Otherwise, use the average value
of the readings as a reference.
• There is no absolute body tempera-
ture value. Keep reliable records of
your own body temperature as a
reference for determining whether
or not you have a fever.
• Contact your local distributor for
any assistance you may require
with configuration, use and main-
tenance operations.
• The batteries must be kept strictly
out of the reach of children, as their
ingestion could result in poisoning
and/or other serious health risks.
• Remove all traces of sweat, make-
up, creams, etc. from the forehead
a few minutes prior to performing
any temperature measurements.
• If the infrared sensor is pointed in
the direction of a hot object, it will
perform the temperature meas-
urement remotely. In order to avoid
incorrect readings, the infrared
sensor must not be pointed at any
heat sources, and the interval that
passes from the time in which the
thermometer is ready and the time
in which the forehead is scanned
must be kept to a minimum.
• If possible, the measurements
should always be taken by pointing
the infrared sensor at the centre of
the forehead.
• Holding the thermometer in your
hands for too long and/or exposing
the device to external heat sources
could result in distorted tempera-
ture readings. For this reason, the
body temperature reading could
result as being higher or lower than
the actual value.
• Any use upon children or individu-
als with limited cognitive abilities
should be supervised by an adult.
MEASURING THE TEMPERATURE
OF THE FOREHEAD
Remember that the thermometer
needs to be left in the room in which
the measurement is to be taken for at
least 30 minutes prior to use.
1. Any attempts at taking measure-
ments in areas of the body other
than the forehead could provide
inaccurate results.
2. Both the child and the adult must
remain still during the measure-
ment.
3. Forehead temperature measure-
ments taken using infrared ther-
mometers are normally equiva-
lent to oral temperature measure-
ments taken using digital or liquid
metal thermometers.
4. Temperature measurements car-
ried out during sleep should not
be directly compared with meas-
urements during wakefulness,
because the temperature during
sleep is generally lower.
