How to use your Braun ThermoScan®
Before taking the temperature, make sure the ear is free from
obstructions or excess earwax.
DO NOT attempt to take the reading without a hygienic lens
filter on – the measuring sensor must be kept protected and
clean from earwax to give accurate readings.
Change the hygienic lens filter with each use to ensure
hygiene, to keep child safe from cross-contamination and to
ensure earwax residues on the disposable lens filter do not
impact accuracy of the reading.
1. To turn the thermometer on, push the "start" button
During an internal self-check, the display
shows all segments.
The reading showed on the screen is the
last temperature taken.
Flashing symbol of lens filter will appear if
no lens filter is attached. Temperature can
be taken only if lens filter is mounted on
the probe.
The thermometer is ready to use after two
beeps are sounded and the non-flashing
ear icon appears.
2. Fit the probe (3) snugly into the ear canal,
aim the probe straight towards the
opposite ear or temple, then push the
"start" button (4).
One beep signals normal temperature.
Audio temperature indicator will trigger 2
consecutive beeps when the reading is
equal or higher to 99.5 °F (37.5 °C) and 4
beeps if the reading is equal or higher to
101.5 °F (38.6 °C). The result is shown on
the display (7).
