in your mouth could damage the device.
> The mouthpieces are single use and must be changed at each measurement.

blowing.
> When there is a difference in temperature from one place to another, wait for a few
minutes before using the device.
> Use alkaline batteries to obtain the best results.
> The use of the cigarette lighter adapter will cut off the battery supply.
