Before use
• Acclimatise the thermometer to the temperature
of the room
For an accurate reading of a patient's temperature, their body
must first acclimatise to the temperature of the room where the
measurement will be made. The same applies to the FTN infrared
thermometer. When taken somewhere else, it automatically
adjusts itself to the new environment. The thermometer takes a
certain amount of time to equalise its own temperature to that of
the room. This depends on the difference between the two
temperatures and can take more than 30 minutes. Precise
readings can only be taken once this process is completed.
• Set the reference location for the temperature reading

temperatures taken using conventional thermometers. You can
