in the early stages of fever, resulting in a cool skin effect. The
recorded temperature using this thermometer can, therefore,be
unusually low.
• If the measurement result is not consistent with the patient’s

5
finding or unusually low, repeat the measurement every

− direct sunlight
− heat and cold
• If the instrument is not going to be used for a prolonged period
the batteries should be removed
3. How this Thermometer measures Temperature
This thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from the

Temperature readings obtained by scanning above the eyebrow
area will provide the greatest accuracy.
