9.2 Measuring body temperature in the ear
WARNING
•
Some people produce dierent readings in their left and right ear.
In order to record temperature changes, always measure a person’s
temperature in the same ear.
•
The built-in ear thermometer may be used by children only under
adult supervision. Measurement is usually possible over the age of 6
months. In infants under 6 months, the ear canal is still very narrow so
the temperature frequently cannot be recorded and the measurements
displayed are often too low.
•
The measurement must not be taken in an ear aected by inflammatory
diseases (e.g. discharging pus or secretion), after possible ear injuries
(e.g. eardrum damage) or in the healing period after operative proce-
dures. In all of these cases, please consult your doctor.
•
Use of the multi functional thermometer on dierent persons can be
inappropriate in the event of certain acute infectious diseases because
of the possible spread of germs despite cleaning and disinfection. If
you have any doubts, please consult your doctor.
•
If you have been lying on one ear for some time, the temperature is
slightly raised. Wait a little while or measure in the other ear.
•
As ear wax can aect the measurement, you should clean the ear
before measuring if necessary.
1.
Hold down the ON/MEAS button for one second to switch on the
multi functional thermometer.
2.
Remove the forehead/cover cap by gently
turning it to the right (1) and then pulling it
o forwards (2).
