8. About body temperature measurement:
How does the thermometer work?
The accurate measurement is obtained
by using a unique probe, which
measures the heat flow from the blood
vessels to the skin and converts it
to body temperature.
Information about Body Temperature
What is “normal” body temperature?
Blood
vessels
Energy Flow
Skin
“Normal” body temperature varies from person to person, changes according to time
6

of day and body location. Hot or cold baths, physical exercise, smoking and drinking,
hot or cold drinks may change body temperature by one degree or more.
The following table shows the temperature ranges:
What is fever? Average normal temperature ranges
Forehead Over 37.8°C/100°F
36.1°C–37.8°C / 97.0°F-100.0°F
Rectal* Over 38°C/100.4°F
36.3°C–38°C / 97.3°F-100.4°F
Oral* Over 37.8°C/100.0°F
36.1°C–37.8°C / 97.0°F-100.0°F
Axilla* (armpit)
Over 37.2°C/99.0°F
35.2°C–37.2°C / 95.4°F-99.0°F
*Fever definitions according to the American Medical Association
The thermometer is designed to measure the temperature in the forehead, in proximity
to the temple area, between the eye socket and the hairline. It is important to know
that the thermal characteristics of each measurement body location – temporal, axillar,
oral or rectal - are unique. The variance in temperature measurement in different body
locations is due to the human body and not the thermometer.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended to measure the body temperature when
healthy to establish the specific “normal” temperature
9. Troubleshooting and special indications
The thermometer has been designed to display feedback-warnings to ensure proper
usage and accurate temperature measurement. When an error appears, the device
will "beep" 5 times, and then the thermometer will turn off automatically. In the event
of a malfunction or incorrect temperature measurement, the following warnings will be
displayed:
