I. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS - Follow the maintenance advice specified in this instruction manual. - This device may be used for professional purposes and personal home use. - Do not use this device for any other purposes than described by this user manual. - This device must only be used in an ambient temperature range between 10°C and 40°C. -

TA temperature measurement is more precise than the tympanic thermometry and better tolerated than rectal thermometry (1). However, as with other types of thermometers, it is essential to use the AT2102 properly in order to obtain reliable and stable results. You are therefore advised to read this instruction manual and the safety precautions carefully before use. -

emits. This measurement can be taken thanks to an external temperature probe on the device which analyses and registers the ambient temperature. Therefore, as soon as the operator holds the thermometer near the body and activates the infrared sensor, the measurement is taken instantly by detection of the infrared heat generated by the arterial blood flow. -
Page 6: Normal Temperatures According To Measurement Method
The AT2102 thermometer has been designed to produce an instant forehead temperature reading without any contact with the temporal artery. As this artery is quite close to the surface of this skin and therefore accessible and given the blood flow is permanent and regular, it allows precise measurement of the temperature. -

- Allow a 1 minute interval between each measurement. - Each time there is a significant change in the ambient temperature due to a change in the environment, allow the AT2102 to acclimatize to this ambient temperature for at least 15 minutes before using it. -
