are directly related. When the body temperature(98.6°
F) is different to the ambient air temperature, the
infrared sensor distance will be farther. When the body
temperature (98.6° F) is close to the ambient air
temperature, the infrared sensor distance will be shorter.
2. Do not use this item in an environment where air
currents are caused by a window, air conditioning,
or air outlet.
3. Do not have the infrared sensor face a directsource
of heat such as a heater.
