1.2 Important
1.2.1 When taking body temperature
• To ensure an accurate reading, it is crucial that the sensor is
angled towards the ear drum and inserted sufficiently deeply
into the auditory canal.
• Some people produce different results in the left and right
ear. In order to accurately measure changes in temperature,
always take readings in the same ear with any given person.
• The position in which you sleep can influence readings. If
someone has been lying on one ear for a long period of time,
the temperature in that ear will be higher than normal. In this
case, either use the other ear or wait a few minutes before
taking a reading.
• Earwax can influence the accuracy of a reading. If necessary,
clean the ear and the sensor tip of the thermometer before
taking a reading in order to prevent inaccurate results.
1.2.2 General tips
• Only use the unit for the specific purpose described in the
operating instructions. Any misuse will void the warranty.
• The unit is not designed for commercial use.
• Do not let children use the unit. Medical products are not
toys!
• If a fault occurs or the unit is damaged, do not attempt to
repair the unit yourself, as this will void the warranty. Contact
your dealer and only have repairs carried out by authorized
service partners.
• Do not immerse the thermometer in water or other liquids.
However, should moisture somehow get into the unit, re-
move the battery and do not take any further readings with
the thermometer. Before any further use, contact your
specialist dealer or MEDISANA directly.
• Do not shake or tap the thermometer.
