INFORMATION ABOUT THIS THERMOMETER

The value of the temperature being measured varies depending on the location on the body where it is taken. For people in good health, it may vary between 0.2^ and 1^ ( 0.4^ and 1.8^ ) on various parts of the body.

Normal temperature ranges between different thermometers

	Temperature values Thermometer used
Forehead temperature 35.8°C (< 37.8°C)	(96.4°F to 98.6°F)	Forehead thermometer
Ear temperature 35.8°C to 38°C (96.4°F to 100.4°F)		Ear temperature
Mouth temperature	35.5°C to 37.5°C (95.9°F to 98.6°F)	Ordinary thermometer
Rectal temperature 36.6°C to 38°C (96.8°F to 100.4°F) Ordinary thermometer

Normal temperature depending on age

Age Temp. in °C
0-2 years 36.4 to 38
3 to 10 years 36.1 to 37.8
11-65 years 35.9 to 37.6
>65 years 35.8 to 37.5

Lanaform's advice

Never compare temperatures taken with different thermometers.

Tell your doctor which thermometer you have used to take your body temperature and where on the body. Please also bear this in mind when self diagnosing.

The thermometer may overheat if it is held too long in the hand before taking your temperature.

This may skew the result of the operation.

FACTORS INFLUENCING BODY TEMPERATURE

• Individual metabolism of each person
  Age : The body temperature is higher for infants and very young babies than it is for adults. Greater variations in temperature occur more rapidly and frequently in children. Normal body temperature falls with age.
  Clothing
• External temperature
  Time of day: Body temperature is lower in the morning and rises throughout the day until the evening.
  Activities: Physical activity and, to a lesser extent, activity in the brain increase the body temperature.

Lanaform's advice

Taking the temperature of the body provides an actual measured value for an individual. If you are uncertain about how to interpret the results or get abnormal values (e.g. fever), consult the doctor treating you. This also applies in the event there are slight variations in temperature when other symptoms of disease come into play, for example agitation, heavy sweating, rashes, rapid heart rate, cardiovascular collapse, etc.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Measurement process

Measuring body temperature

1. Press the "STOP/START" button. All the symbols are displayed on the screen. The thermometer emits a short beep, then the ^ C / ^ unit starts to flash on the screen.
2. Press the "mode" button to select "body" mode. The temperature unit flashes (Fig. 7).
3. Place the sensor close to the forehead, making sure it is placed parallel to it and take the temperature at a distance of one centimetre. The thermometer automatically measures when the LED blue light flashes (Fig. 11).
4. It takes 3 seconds to display the measurement. Once the measurement has been taken, 3 short beeps will be heard and the reading is displayed on the screen, flashing green (Fig. 12).

Note:

• If the temperature is below 37.5^ (99.5^) , the LED turns green.
• If the temperature is above or equal to 37.5^ (99.5^) and below 43^ (109.4^) , the LED turns red and 10 short beeps are heard.
• The thermometer will take the measurement again only when the ^ C / ^ flashes again.
• If the sensor is placed on an incline close to the forehead, the ambient temperature will affect the reading.
• Infants' skin responds very quickly to the ambient temperature. Do not therefore take the temperature with a contactless thermometer during and after feeds because the skin temperature may then be lower than the internal body temperature.
• The thermometer switches off automatically after 60 seconds of inactivity.

Measuring the temperature of an object

1. Press the "ON/OFF" button. All the symbols are displayed on the screen. A short beep is heard, then the ^ C / ^ unit

starts to flash on the screen.

1. Press the "mode" button to select "object" mode. The temperature unit flashes (Fig. 8).
2. Hold the sensor 1cm away from the object, making sure it is parallel to the latter, then take the measurement. The thermometer takes the measurement automatically. The LED blue light flashes (Fig. 13).
3. Once the measurement has been taken, 3 short beeps will be heard. The reading is displayed in green at the same time (Fig. 14).

Note:

• The thermometer switches off automatically after 60 seconds of inactivity.
• Given that the surrounding environment may affect the temperature of the object, the reading should only be used for reference purposes.
• If the sensor is placed on an incline close to the object, the relevant ambient temperature will affect the reading.
• Switches off automatically after 60 seconds of inactivity.

Measuring ambient temperature

1. Press the "ON/OFF" button. All the symbols are displayed on the screen. A short beep is heard, then the ^ C / ^ unit starts to flash on the screen.
