• When you see the temperature at the
midpoint between the two arches (g. 6), the
thermometer is at the right distance: release
the button and keep the device steady while
the lights ash. You can also read the tempera-
ture on the display, lit in light blue. If necessary,
you can immediately take another reading.
• Close the protective cap.
When the thermometer remains idle for 20 seconds, it reverts to stand-by mode
and will display the room temperature for 45 minutes (“DOCT” mode) or 30 minutes
(“NURS” mode) before shutting o.
4.2 In case of sweating, oxygen mask, elderly patients:
take the reading on the eyelid
In case of perspiring forehead, oxygen mask, elderly patients - especially with wrinkled
forehead -, the measurement must be taken on the eyelid.
Proceed as you would do for a forehead rea
-
ding using the “FACE” button (g. 7).
No need to worry that the patient could open its
eyes while you are taking the reading: the lights
are harmless.
Precision is not guaranteed, but such reading
can be considered a valid approximation of
one’s body temperature.
Such reading is also indicated when one has
oil or make-up on the forehead. or when the subject is not perfectly stabilized in the
environment, like for example in the case of readings in airports or when entering in
stations, companies, schools, emergency room.
