The Braun ThermoScan thermometer has been carefully developed for accurate, safe and fast
temperature measurements in the ear.
The shape of the thermometer probe prevents it from being inserted too far into the ear canal which
can hurt the eardrum.
However, as with any thermometer, proper technique is critical to obtaining accurate temperatures.
Therefore, read the instructions carefully and thoroughly.
The Braun ThermoScan thermometer is intended for intermittent measurement and monitoring of
human body temperature for people of all ages. It is intended for household use only.
Use of this thermometer is not intended as a substitute for consultation with your physician.

Please consult your doctor if the thermometer shows elevated temperature.
