Warning
Many people may not have an elevated temperature even if they are ill. In the
following cases please consult your medical professional before using this product.
• Under 90-day-old infants
• People on steroids, antibiotics or antipyretics.
• People with compromised immune systems.
Cautions
• The reliability of the measurement cannot be guaranteed if the temperature is
measured from parts of body that are not recommended (anywhere other than the
forehead or behind the earlobe).
• Similar to other thermometers, measurement error may occur within a range of ±
0.2C ( ± 0.4F)
• Measurement should not be taken until completely relaxed at normal room
temperature.
• Please note that measurement may be incorrect after exercising, bathing or getting
wet in the rain.
• Temperature between right and left forehead could be different.
• Measurement may be incorrect when low battery (
) signal is indicated. Replace
the battery and re-measure.
• When measuring the temperature of a liquid (milk, water) place the probe as close
as possible to the liquid but ensure that it is not immersed into the liquid as this
may damage your thermometer.
• Check your product regularly for damage and exhausted batteries.
