affecting your ears or if there is still
water in your ear, e.g. from showering
or swimming.
− Ear wax or a greasy forehead could
result in inaccurate measurements.
You should therefore clean your ear or
forehead before taking your tempera-
ture. Then wait approx. 5 – 10 minutes
before you perform a temperature
measurement.
− Repeat the measurements approx.
every 15 minutes if the readings are
unusually low or if you feel they are
inaccurate. If possible, use a conven-
tional clinical thermometer to take an
oral or rectal temperature reading for
comparison. Ask your physician if in
doubt.
− If ear drops or other medications have
been administered in one ear, you
should measure your body tempera-
ture in the other ear.
− When taking the temperature of per-
sons with hearing aids or ear plugs,
it is recommended to wait approx. 30
minutes after they have been removed
from the ear before taking their tem-
perature.
