6. What you should know about using this thermometer
There are different thermometers for taking temperature measurements in different parts of the body:
- Ear/forehead thermometer (this thermometer, for measuring in the ear or on the forehead area)
- Rod thermometer (for rectal (in the back passage), axillary (under the arm) or oral measurement (in the mouth))

Taking the temperature gives a measurement that provides information about a person's current body temperature. If you are uncertain about interpreting the results or if the value is abnormal, please consult your doctor.
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 with one another. You should therefore tell your doctor (or bear in mind if you are diagnosing yourself) what thermometer you used to take your temperature and in what part of the body.
The temperature of a healthy person is affected by various factors: the person's individual metabolism, their age (body temperature is higher in babies and toddlers and decreases with age. Greater temperature fluctuations occur faster and more often in children, e.g. due to growth spurts), their clothing, the ambient temperature, the time of day (body temperature is lower in the morning and increases throughout the day towards evening), the preceding physical and, to a lesser extent, mental activity.
The temperature varies depending on the part of the body where the measurement is taken. The difference can be between 0.4 ^ ( 0,2 ^ ) and 1.8 ^ ( 1 ^ ) for a healthy body. The normal temperature ranges are as follows:
- On the forehead: 96.4^ - 99.7^ (35.8 °C – 37.6 °C), measured with a forehead thermometer
- In the ear: 96.8^ - 100^ (36.0 °C - 37.8 °C), measured with an ear thermometer
- In the back passage: 97.3 °F – 100 °F (36.3 °C – 37.8 °C), measured with a conventional thermometer
- In the mouth: 96.8 °F – 99.3 °F (36.0 °C – 37.4 °C), measured with a conventional thermometer. In order to track temperature change, always take the measurements in the same part of the body.
7. Measuring
Before each use, please check that the lens is intact. If it is damaged, please contact your retailer or the service address. Bear in mind that the thermometer needs to have been in the room in which the measurement is taken for at least 30 minutes before use.
Measuring body temperature in the ear

- Some people produce different readings in their left and right ear. In order to record temperature changes, always measure a person's temperature in the same ear.
- The 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 of the eardrum often cannot be recorded and the result displayed is often too low.
- The measurement must not be taken in an ear affected by inflammatory diseases (e.g. discharging pus or secretion), after possible ear injuries (e.g. eardrum damage) or in the healing period after operative procedures. In all of these cases, please consult your doctor.
- Use of the thermometer on different 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.
- This thermometer may only be used without a disposable protective cover.
- 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 affect the measurement, you should clean the ear before measuring if necessary.
-
Press the ① button for 1 second to switch the thermometer on. Following a successful self test, the device emits two short beeps.
- Remove the cap by gently pushing it up (1) and then pulling it off forwards (2).

natural_image
Line drawing of a human head with a hand holding a tool near the ear area (no text or symbols)Make sure that the sensor tip and also the ear canal are clean.
As the ear canal is slightly curved, you have to pull the ear slightly up and backwards before inserting the sensor tip. This is important so that the sensor tip can be pointed directly at the eardrum.
- Insert the sensor tip carefully and press the button for 1 second.
- Release the button. The end of the measuring time is signalled with a short beep and the measured value appears on the display.
If the measured value is within the normal range (< 100.4 °F/38 °C), the green LED lights up for 3 seconds. If the measured value is higher (≥ 100.4 °F/38 °C, high temperature), the red LED is illuminated.
Measuring body temperature on the forehead

natural_image
Side profile illustration of a human head with a handheld device, showing airflow direction (no text or symbols)Please note that the forehead/temples must be free from sweat and cosmetics and that taking vasoconstrictive medication and skin irritations can distort the result when measuring temperature on the forehead.
- Press the button for 1 second to switch the thermometer on. Following a successful self test, the device emits two short beeps.
- Place the measuring head with the forehead/cover cap fitted on the temples, hold down the button and move the thermometer smoothly over the forehead to the other temple.
- Then release the button. The end of the measuring time is signalled with a short beep and the measured value appears on the display.
If the measured value is within the normal range (< 100.4 °F/38 °C), the green LED lights up for 3 seconds. If the measured value is higher (≥ 100.4 °F/38 °C, high temperature), the red LED is illuminated.
Measuring surface temperature
- Press the ① button for 1 second to switch the thermometer on. Following a successful self test, the device emits two short beeps.
- Then press the and buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds to switch to the Object temperature mode. The symbol appears in the display.
- Press and hold the ① button and point the sensor tip towards to the object or liquid to be measured (never immerse in liquids), maintaining a distance of 3 cm.
- Release the ⓣ button. The end of the measuring time is signalled with a short beep and the measured value appears on the display.
Please note that the displayed temperature is the measured and not the adapted surface temperature. It is not the same as the forehead/ear temperature.
To switch back to the Ear/Forehead thermometer mode, press the and buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds until the symbol disappears and there is a short beep. By switching the thermometer off and on again, it automatically exits the Object temperature mode.
The temperature last measured, i.e. only the last value of a series of measurements, is automatically stored as soon as the thermometer switches itself off or is switched off. There are 10 memory spaces available for this.
If you do not press any other buttons, the thermometer automatically switches off approx. one minute after displaying the measured value.
To call up the saved values, switch the thermometer on and press the Ⓜ button.
The date, time, storage space number, the measurement mode symbol and the temperature are displayed in turn.
Browse through the stored measurements by pressing the button repeatedly.
8. Replacing the battery
When the batteries get weak, the battery warning symbol appears if it is still possible to measure temperature. The batteries must be replaced. When the battery symbol flashes and appears in the display, the batteries must be replaced. If the batteries are too flat, then the thermometer will switch off automatically.

Note:
- When changing the batteries, use batteries of the same type, make and capacity.
