Measuring body temperature in the ear
Some people produce di erent readings in their left and right ear. In order to record temperature changes,
always measure a person’s temperature in the same ear.
The ear thermometer may be used by children only under adult supervision. Measurement is usually possible
over the age of 6 months. In infants under 6 months, the ear canal is still very narrow so the temperature of the
eardrum often cannot be recorded and the result displayed is often too low.
The measurement must not be taken in an ear a ected by in ammatory diseases (e.g. discharging pus or
secretion), after possible ear injuries (e.g. eardrum damage) or in the healing period after operative proce-
dures. In all of these cases, please consult your doctor.
Use of the thermometer on di erent persons can be inappropriate in the event of certain acute infectious
diseases because of the possible spread of germs despite cleaning and disinfection. If you have any doubts,
please consult your doctor.
This thermometer may only be used without a disposable protective cover.
If you have been lying on one ear for some time, the temperature is slightly raised. Wait a little while or meas-
ure in the other ear.
As ear wax can a ect the measurement, you should clean the ear before measuring if necessary.
Press the button for 1 second to switch the thermometer on. Follow-
ing a successful self test, the device emits two short beeps.
Remove the cap by gently pushing it up (1) and then pulling it o for-
wards (2).
