•
The sensor
all times in order to guarantee that the measurements are accurate.
•
Ear wax affects the measuring accuracy. If necessary, clean your
ear and the sensor tip of the thermometer before measuring in or-
der to avoid erroneous measurements.
•
Before taking a measurement on the forehead, clean the area and
remove any dirt, sweat or cosmetics before moving the sensor to
the measuring position as otherwise erroneous results could be
measured.
•
Do not measure your temperature immediately after eating,
training or bathing. Wait for half an hour.
•
Do not take successive measurements at intervals of less than one
minute. If you have to take your temperature at shorter intervals,
the results may fluctuate slightly.
• The human body temperature fluctuates within a natural range.
There is no such thing as a standard body temperature.
• Measure and record your body temperature on normal days. This
will allow you to detect a fever more easily.
In order to make an accurate measurement in the ear, the sensor
•
must be directed at the eardrum and be inserted far enough into
the ear canal.
