2.5 Recommendations
Store the unit in the room where you are going to use it.
If the unit has been stored in a cool (cold) room, allow it to reach ambient
temperature before using (temperature of the environment needs to be
above 10 °C or keep the thermometer at least 30 minutes in the place
where you are going to use it). Do not warm the unit by placing it near a fire.
Instead, place it in the room where you are going to use it to allow it to reach
the room temperature.
Start measurement after the body (ear) is warmed up.
The measurement may indicate a lower temperature than the actual
temperature in the following cases:
• Immediately after returning to your home (especially in winter).
• In a cool or cold room.
• When the head (ear) is cooled by an ice bag.
Confirm the measuring method by familiarizing yourself with the best way
to insert the unit in the ear. Do this during normal body temperature periods.
• Note the angle you are holding the thermometer at when the highest
measurement value is indicated.
• The measurement value may differ for each ear. Try to measure the
temperature using the ear that shows the highest temperature in stable
conditions.
