•
Measure temperature regularly to calculate the normal ear temperature and then use these mea
-
surements as a basis for comparison when taking measurements in the event of a suspected
high temperature.
•
Do not use the thermometer on multiple people if any of them have an ear infection, even when
using protective covers on the sensor tip.
•
Use this ear thermometer only with the protective cover in place.
•
Read these instructions for use carefully and keep them for later use.
NOTE:
•
Taking your temperature provides information about your current state of well-being. If you are
uncertain about interpreting the results or if the result is abnormal (e.g. fever), consult your doc-
tor. This also applies in the case of slight temperature changes if there are other symptoms of
illness such as agitation, severe sweating, flushed skin, fast pulse rate, tendency to collapse, etc.
•
Temperatures measured with different thermometers cannot be compared. You should tell your
doctor or keep in mind if you are measuring for yourself what type of thermometer you use and
in which part of the body.
