Product description
The Braun ThermoScan
Ear thermometer has been carefully developed for accurate, safe and fast
®
temperature measurements in the ear.
The shape of the thermometer probe prevents it from being inserted too far into the ear canal, which can
hurt the eardrum.
However, as with any thermometer, proper technique is critical to obtaining accurate temperatures.
Therefore, read the instructions carefully and thoroughly.
The Braun ThermoScan Ear thermometer is indicated for intermittent measurement and monitoring
of human body temperature for people of all ages. It is intended for household use only.
Use of IRT 6575 along with Age Precision
