Special Instructions for Safe Use

You should know the normal body temperature of individuals when they are healthy, which will help you to accurately judge whether they have a fever. To get the normal body temperature, please take more measurements when they are healthy. The normal temperature of childr

en can be as high as 37.7°C or as low as 36.1°C. Please confirm it with a standard electronic thermometer. The human body can regulate the temperature to keep the normal body temperature within a certain fluctuation range, up to 1°C within a day. Besides, the internal temperature of the human body, i.e. the body core temperature, is different from the surface temperature of the skin, so we cannot simply define what temperature is “normal”, as the body temperature is always in connection with to the measurement site. The level of body temperature is also affected by ambient temperature, age, sleep time, hormonal readiness and physical activity.

Note:

Note:
Avoid taking the temperature until stay in the room for 30 minutes (the subject to be measured and the infrared forehead thermometer should be at the same ambient temperature for at least 30 minutes). Keep the infrared forehead thermometer and forehead still when measuring, do not move the thermometer before the last beep is heard. Do not take the baby’s temperature immediately after breastfeeding. Wait a few minutes before taking the temperature after waking up. Do not eat, drink or do any other physical activity before or during the temperature measurement. If there is a hat on head, please take it off and wait for 10 minutes before taking the temperature. Please clean the dirt or hair on forehead before taking the temperature. Front bangs may cause readings to rise. Wait for 10 minutes before taking the temperature after cleaning the forehead. Please take the temperature in strict accordance with the instructions. Temperature readings may be affected by improper placement. For the following circumstances, it is recommended to measure the same site three times, and take the highest one as the final.

  1. Newborn babies less than 100 days old.
  2. Children under three years old, with low immunity and greatly affected by fever on health.
  3. The user learns to use the infrared forehead thermometer for the first time, who has little knowledge about the operation and fails to get stable readings.

If patients intend to take body temperature by their own, we recommend contact measurement.
