hair or clothing. If necessary, brush away any hair from the forehead but remember,
this must be done a few minutes beforehand or the temperature reading will be higher
than the actual body temperature.
8. When taking a temperature reading, please note that in the presence of oils,
make-up or an oxygen mask, and in the case of elderly, the temperature detected may
be lower than the actual body temperature (see also par. #4.2).
9. The forehead temperature reading can be aected by profuse sweating, super
