This thermometer is intended for household use only. Use of this
thermometer is not intended as a substitute for consultation with your
physician.
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 there is a
temperature elevation and if you are taking temperature on:
• Neonates and infants under 3 months (Consult your physician
immediately if the temperature exceeds 37.5°C)
• Patients over 60 years of age (Fever may be blunted or absent in
older patients)
• Patients having diabetes mellitus or a weakened immune system
(e.g., HIV positive, cancer chemotherapy, chronic steroid treatment,
splenectomy)
• Patients who are bedridden (e.g., nursing home patient, stroke, chronic
illness, recovering from surgery)
• A transplant patient (e.g., liver, heart, lung, kidney)
This thermometer is not intended for pre-term babies or small-for-
gestational age babies.
This thermometer is not intended to interpret hypothermic temperatures.
Do not allow children to take their temperatures unattended.
Please consult your doctor 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 thermometer?
Measurement in under 2 seconds
The innovative infrared technology measures forehead
temperature in under 2 seconds, whether you use the
touch or no-touch option.
Accurate and reliable
Due to the unique technology, the Braun No touch +
forehead thermometer captures the heat naturally given
off by the forehead to calculate body temperature. Get the
same professional accuracy whether touching your
forehead with the thermometer or holding it up to 5 cm
away.
Easy to use
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer is non-
invasive. A measurement can be taken even while a child
is sleeping.
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer is less
threatening to a child than a rectal thermometer and
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 Braun No touch + forehead thermometer measures infrared
energy radiated from the skin at the center of the forehead area. This
captured energy (which is twice as much thermal energy compared to
a traditional forehead thermometer1 ), is collected through the lens and
converted to a body temperature value.
The Braun 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.
Fever guidance feature
Fever guidance helps you to better understand the meaning of a
temperature with the color indicated on the display. A green screen
suggests no fever, a yellow screen suggests moderate fever, and red
signals high fever. 10 audible beeps indicate temperatures above
37.4°C to alert that the patient may have a fever.
NOTE: Backlight remains OFF when below temperature readings are registered:

Position device on or up to 5 cm
away from the center of the forehead,
just between the eyebrows.
For No touch readings, the yellow
guidance light will show you where
you are aiming. If the eyebrow area is
covered with hair, sweat or dirt, please
clean the area beforehand to improve
the reading accuracy.
It is important to hold the thermometer
and the forehead steady during measurement. Movement will impact
the temperature reading.

Take temperature
Press the temperature button (you can press and
hold the button or press and release it). When the
device is placed correctly, the screen displays a
dashed line animation while it takes a reading. After
the animation sequence (under 2 seconds), the
display shows the temperature. The appropriate fever light color is
displayed on the screen and the confirmation beep is heard.
If the device is positioned too far away from
the forehead, it will prompt you to move closer by
displaying a diagram and the letters “0-5 cm”. Slowly
move the device toward the forehead until the dashed
line animation starts and a reading is displayed.

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. To
determine normal temperature, take multiple readings when healthy.
A child’s normal temperature can be as high as 37.7°C or as low
as 36.1°C. Re-measure with a standard digital thermometer for
confirmation. This unit reads approximately 0.5°C lower than a rectal
digital measurement.
Patient must be inside for 30 minutes before taking a measurement.
Note: Patient and the thermometer should be in the same ambient
temperature for at least 10 minutes.
Always hold the thermometer and the forehead steady when taking a
reading. Do not move the thermometer until you hear the confirmation
beep.
Don’t take a measurement while or immediately after nursing a baby.
Patients should not drink, eat, or be physically active before/while
taking the measurement. Remove hats and wait 10 minutes before
taking a measurement.
Remove dirt or hair from the forehead before taking a measurement.
The presence of fringes may cause higher readings. We recommend
waiting at least 10 minutes after washing the forehead area before
taking a reading.
Always take the temperature exactly as directed. Temperature results
may vary if positioned in the wrong location.
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.
For patients measuring their own temperature, it is recommended to
use the “touch” option instead of “no touch”.

Calibration
The thermometer is initially calibrated at the time of manufacture. If this
thermometer is used according to the use instructions, periodic
re-adjustment is not required. If at any time you question the accuracy
of temperature measurements, please contact customer service.
Manufacturing date is given by the LOT number located inside the
battery compartment of the thermometer. The first three (3) digits after
LOT represent the Julian date that the product was manufactured and
the next two (2) digits represent the last two numbers of the calendar
year the product was manufactured. The last identifiers are the letters
that represent the manufacturer.
An example: LOT 11614tav, this product has been manufactured on the
116th day of the year 2014.
Changing the sound mode
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer
allows you to silence the beeps on the
thermometer to avoid waking a sleeping
child. To activate this feature, slide the
switch to the silent mode position and take a
temperature reading. An icon will appear on
the screen to indicate that the thermometer
is in silent mode.

Care and cleaning
The thermometer should be cleaned in between uses, as necessary. Use
an alcohol swab or cotton swab moistened with alcohol (70% Isopropyl)
to clean the thermometer casing and the measuring probe. Ensure that
no liquid enters the interior of the thermometer. Never use abrasive
cleaning agents, thinners or benzene for cleaning and never immerse the
instrument in water or other cleaning liquids. Wait 10 minutes after
cleaning before taking a temperature measurement. Make sure to replace
the protective cap after use to prevent scratches or damage from
occurring to the thermometer.
Never insert a sharp object into the scanner area or any other open
surface on the thermometer.
Replacing the batteries
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer comes with 2 AA batteries.
Replace with 2 new AA batteries when the steady battery symbol
appears on the LCD display. To change the batteries, slide open the
battery cover and remove batteries. Replace the batteries being sure to
align properly as indicated inside the battery compartment. Remove the
battery from the product if it is not required for extended periods of time
in order to avoid damage to the thermometer resulting from a leaking
