INTRODUCTION

This Alecto BC-19 thermometer is a digital thermometer developed to take your temperature as simply and accurately as possible. In order to get the most reliable results, these instructions must be followed accurately. For the most accurate temperature reading, we recommend using the thermometer rectally. Although the generally accepted 'normal' temperature is 37.0°C, body temperature can vary from 36.1°C to 37.2°C.
Fluctuations in temperature can be due to activities such as sports, smoking, eating and drinking, and also depend on the part of the body where the temperature is taken. When measured orally, the body temperature is generally 0.5°C lower than when measured rectally, while a temperature measured under the armpit is 1.0°C lower. Your temperature is lower in the morning than in the evening.

MEASURING YOUR TEMPERATURE

*: If the room temperature is higher than 32.0°C, the room temperature will be shown instead of 'Lo'.

Measurement under the tongue:
Place the mometer under the tongue, as far back as possible to the left or right.
A temperature taken under the tongue is approx. 0.5°C lower than when taken rectally.

Measurement under the arm
Make sure the armpit is dry and place the thermometer under the arm. The sensor must touch the skin. Keep your arm crossed in front of your chest. A temperature taken under the tongue is approx. 1.0°C lower than when taken rectally.

Rectal measurement
Insert the thermometer sensor gently (maximum 1.25 cm).

BATTERY LOW

The battery is low when the symbol appears in the display.
The battery cannot be replaced. Please replace the complete thermometer.
