Operation; Information On Measuring Temperature - Medisana ThermoDock Instruction Manual

5.1 Information on
Before use
• Acclimatise the device to the temperature of
the room
The ThermoDock must adapt to the ambient
temperature in order to measure body temperature
precisely. This occurs automatically. However, the
ThermoDock takes a certain amount of time to
equalise its own temperature to that of the room.
This depends on the difference in temperature and
can take more than 30 minutes. Precise readings can
only be taken once this process is completed.
NOTES
For the most accurate readings:
• The thermometer and the patient must remain
in a stable environment for at least 30 minutes
before measuring the temperature.
• Do not take a baby's temperature during or
directly after breastfeeding.
• Do not use the thermometer in damp
environments.
• Patients should not drink or eat directly before
or during a measurement, and they should
avoid any physical exertion.
• Clean the area where you are taking the
temperature and remove any dirt, hairs or
sweat before moving the sensor to the
measuring position.
• Do not remove the thermometer from the
measuring position until it has beeped to signal
the end of the reading.
