Temperature elevation may signal a serious illness, especially in neonates and
infants, or in adults who are old, frail, or have a weakened immune system.
Please seek professional advice immediately when a temperature elevation
occurs on persons that are:
• Neonates and infants under 3 months (Consult your physician immediately if
the temperature exceeds 37.4 °C [99.4 °F ])
• Individuals over 60 years of age (Fever may be blunted or absent in older
individuals)
• Individuals having diabetes mellitus or a weakened immune system (e.g.,
HIV positive, cancer chemotherapy, chronic immunosuppressant treatment,
splenectomy)
• Individuals who are bedridden (e.g., nursing home patient, stroke, chronic
illness, paraplegia, quadriplegia, surgical recovery)
• A transplant recipient (e.g., liver, heart, lung, kidney).
This thermometer is not intended for pre-term babies or small-for-gestational-
age babies. Pre-term is defined as babies with a calendar age of less than 37
weeks. Small-for-gestational-age is defined as a baby born at 37 weeks or later,
with a weight below the 10th percentile for babies of the same gestational age.
This thermometer is not intended to interpret hypothermic temperatures. If the
device displays a temperature of 36.4 °C (97.5 °F) or less with an LED backlight
color of green or white, and the individual is exhibiting atypical symptoms or
behaviors, contact your physician or health care professional.
DO NOT allow children to take their temperatures unattended.
Please consult your physician if you see symptoms such as unexplained irritability,
vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, changes in appetite or activity, seizure, muscle
pain, shivering, stiff neck, pain when urinating, etc., even in the absence of fever.
Even in the absence of fever, those who exhibit a normal temperature may still
need to receive medical attention. People who are on antibiotics, analgesics, or
antipyretics should not be assessed solely on temperature readings to determine
the severity of their illness.
DO NOT modify this equipment without the authorization of the manufacturer.

Why Braun No touch + forehead?
Measurement in under 2 seconds
The innovative infrared technology allows measurement of forehead
temperature in under 2 seconds whether you use the forehead or no
touch option.
Accurate and reliable
Due to the unique technology, the No touch + forehead thermometer
captures the heat naturally given off by the forehead to calculate body
temperature value. Get the same professional accuracy whether
touching your forehead or holding up to 2.5 cm (1 inch) away.
Easy to use
The No touch + forehead thermometer is non-invasive.
A measurement can be taken even while a child is sleeping.
The No touch + forehead thermometer is safer to use on a child than
a rectal thermometer and is easier to use than other methods.
Safe and hygienic
No touch option helps minimize spreading of germs.
Completely safe for use on children and adults.
How does Braun No touch + forehead work?
The No touch + forehead thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from
the skin at the center. This captured energy is collected through the lens and
converted to an oral equivalent value.
The No touch + forehead thermometer has been clinically tested and
proven to be safe and accurate when used in accordance with its
operating instruction manual.
1. A traditional forehead product without any optical system to capture radiated heat.

AgeSmart™color-coded display
Clinical research shows the definition of fever changes as newborns grow into
infants, infants grow into children and children grow into adults.1
Select the appropriate age setting, take a temperature, and the display will glow
green, yellow, or red to indicate whether the temperature is in a normal,
moderate fever, or high fever range, respectively.
The device is only intended for the measurement of human body temperature. It
is not intended to diagnose or monitor a serious medical condition or disease.
The device also has a food/bath mode.

Temperature taking hints
It is important to know each individual’s normal temperature when they are well.
This is the only way to accurately diagnose a fever. Take multiple readings when
healthy to determine normal temperature.
A child’s normal temperature can be as high as 37.7 °C (99.9 °F) or as low as
36.1 °C (97.0 °F). Be sure to note this unit reads 0.5 °C (0.9 °F) lower than a rectal
digital measurement.
Thermometer needs to acclimate to the room temperature for 10 minutes
before taking a measurement.
The individual being measured should be indoors for 30 minutes before taking
a measurement. External temperature can impact skin temperature.
If the individual is inside but in a room that is more than a few degrees warmer
or cooler than the room the thermometer is in, it will impact the accuracy of the
reading.
ALWAYS hold the thermometer and the forehead steady when taking a reading.
DO NOT move the thermometer until you hear the final beep. DO NOT take a
measurement while or immediately after nursing a baby.
Individuals should not drink, eat, or be physically active before/while taking the
measurement.
Remove hats and wait 10 minutes before taking a measurement.
Before taking a measurement, remove dirt or hair from the forehead area. Wait
10 minutes after cleaning before taking measurement.
ALWAYS take the temperature exactly as directed. Temperature results may
vary if positioned in the wrong location.
For individuals measuring their own temperature, it is recommended to use the

7
English
“forehead” option instead of “no touch.”
In the following situations it is recommended that three temperatures in the same
location be taken and the highest one taken as the reading:
• Newborn infants in the first 100 days.
• Children under three years of age with a compromised immune system and for
whom the presence or absence of fever is critical.
• When the user is learning how to use the thermometer for the first time until he/
she has familiarized himself/herself with the instrument and obtains consistent
readings.
General precautions:
• Remove any sweat prior to measuring with a dry cloth.
• Avoid any cooling or warming cloths on the forehead for at least 30 minutes
prior to measurement.
•
DO NOT take temperature measurements over scar tissue, open sores, or abrasions.
• Keep the measurement sensor and lens clean. Avoid directly touching the
sensor or lens.
• ALWAYS store the thermometer with the protective cap in place to prevent dirt
and scratches from damaging the device.
• Make sure to remove the protective cap before taking a measurement and to
put the cap back on after using the thermometer.
