4. To measure ear temperature accurately, first
straighten the ear canal. To straighten the ear
canal for ages 2 years to adult: gently pull
the outer ear “up and back”. Fully insert the
thermometer gently into the ear.
5. Press and hold the ‘SCAN’ button until you hear a
beeping sound. Remove the probe from ear and the
temperature measurement is displayed on the screen.
• The key to an accurate reading is straightening the ear canal so
that measurements are taken directly from the eardrum.
• It is recommended that you measure the temperature 3 times
in the same ear. If the 3 measurements are different, select the
highest temperature.
• Always insert the thermometer in the same ear with the same
direction and depth.
• Always clean the probe accordingly (see Care and Cleaning)
after each use.
• Before measurements, remain in a stable environment and avoid
exercise and bathing for 30 minutes prior.
