Why Braun Sensian™ 4 thermometer ?
Measurement in under 2 seconds
The innovative infrared technology allows measurement of
forehead temperature in under 2 seconds .
Accurate and reliable
Due to the technology, the Sensian™ 4 thermometer
captures the heat naturally given off by the forehead to
calculate body temperature value .
Easy to use
The Sensian™ 4 thermometer is non-invasive . A measurement
can be taken even while a child is sleeping .
The Sensian™ 4 thermometer is safer to use on a child than a
rectal thermometer and is easier to use than other methods .
Safe and hygienic
Helps minimize spreading of germs .
Safe for use on children and adults .
How does the Braun Sensian™ 4 thermometer
work?
The Sensian™ 4 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 Sensian™ 4 thermometer has been clinically tested and proven to be
safe and accurate when used in accordance with its operating instruction
manual.
Color-coded fever guidance
Color-coded fever guidance helps you to better understand the meaning of the
individual's temperature with the color indicated on the display . The
color-coded screen displays GREEN for a normal temperature, YELLOW for a
fever, and RED for a high fever .

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 .
A child's normal temperature can be as high as 99 .9°F (37 .7 °C) or as low as
97 .0°F (36 .1°C) . Be sure to note this unit reads up to 1 .0°F (0 .6°C) lower than a
rectal digital measurement because it provides an oral equivalent reading .
Note: The thermometer and Individual being measured should be in the
same ambient temperature for at least 30 minutes to avoid impacts to
measurement accuracy.
ALWAYS hold the thermometer and the forehead steady when taking a
reading .
DO NOT move the thermometer until you hear the final beep (unless in silent
mode) .
Nursing mothers should not take a temperature measurement on themselves
or have their temperature measured by another individual while or immediately
after nursing a baby, as nursing can affect body temperature .
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 the forehead before taking a measurement .
ALWAYS take the temperature exactly as directed . Temperature results may
vary if positioned in the wrong location .
In the following situations it is recommended that three temperature
measurements from the same location be taken, and the highest measurement
of the three be used as the reading:
•
Newborn infants in the first 100 days since birth .
•
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:
•
Prior to measuring, remove any dirt or sweat from the forehead with a dry
cloth .
•
Avoid any cooling or warming cloths on the forehead for at least 30 minutes
prior to measurement .
•
Remove blankets and pillows away from the head and face prior
measurement .
DO NOT take temperature measurements over scar tissue, open sores, or
•
abrasions .
•
ALWAYS store the thermometer in a dry, clean environment . DO NOT store
in areas with sharp objects that could scratch the sensor . Dirt, debris, and
scratches will impact the accuracy of temperature readings .
