Also refer to the short instructions at the front.
5. While gently pulling the ear, insert the probe snugly into the ear
canal.

NOTE:
 Patients and thermometer should stay in similar room
condition for at least 30 minutes.
 To ensure accurate readings, wait at least 30 sec. after 3-5
continuous measurements.
 It is essential that a new undamaged probe cover CK is
used for each measurement. Therefore, this device reminds
the user to take off the used probe cover when turning off the
device. The «probe cover» icon BN is displayed and the probe
LED light will flash for 3 seconds. For cleaning, follow the
instructions in the «Cleaning and Disinfecting» section.
 After cleaning the measuring sensor 1 with alcohol, wait 5
minutes before taking the next measurement, in order to allow
the thermometer to reach its operating reference temperature.
 10 short beeps and a red LCD backlight alert the patient that he/
she may have a temperature equal to or higher than 37.5 °C.
 For an infant, it is best to have the child lying flat with his/her head
sideways so the ear is facing upwards. For an older child or adult,
it is best to stand behind and slightly to the side of the patient.
 Always take the temperature in the same ear, since the temper-
ature readings may be different from ear to ear.
