Daysy is your personal fertility monitor. Simply place the sensor under your
tongue each morning to record your temperature and then confirm the days
you are menstruating. Daysy will help you track your menstrual cycle and
determine when you are fertile and when you are not.

Store or our website daysy.me. This App gives you additional information about
your cycle.

1. Every morning before you get out of bed, pick up Daysy and press the
activation button. The activation ring will light up quickly, and your
predicted fertility status will be displayed.
2. Press the button once more, and the lights of the activation ring will start
rotating clockwise.
3. Place the sensor tip under your tongue, as far back as possible, and close
your lips around the neck of Daysy.
4. Wait until you hear 2 beeps.*
5. Daysy now shows today’s fertility status. To review your fertility status later
in the day, simply press the activation button, and your status will display.
*If Daysy did not successfully take your temperature you will hear a grumble buzz.
If this happens please try again. Measurements normally take around 60s.

After the temperature reading, the violet light may be blinking. This means that
Daysy expects menstruation to start soon.
– If you are menstruating, press and hold the activation button until
the violet light remains illuminated and you hear a beep.
– If you are not menstruating, don’t do anything, the light remains blinking.
– Enter menstruation for each day. Menstruation must be entered for
at least 3 consecutive days.
– If you are menstruating and Daysy does not ask you for menstruation, input
menstruation by pressing and holding down the activation button until the
violet light is illuminated. This confirms menstruation.
,QSXWWLQJPHQVWUXDWLRQ
Note: After the pill or other hormone-based contraceptives: The first bleeding after stopping
hormonal contraceptives is not a menstruation, but a pill-conditioned withdrawal bleeding.
Do not enter menstruation for this bleeding.

10
– Be sure to measure first thing in the morning. This means measure
before getting out of bed. If you get out of bed and then remember,
it is better to skip the measurement for that day.
– Be sure to input when you have your period.
– The more regularly you measure, the better Daysy can track your cycle.
– In the beginning, you will see a lot of yellow and red because Daysy
requires about 3 cycles to pinpoint your individual fertile window. We
know this can be frustrating, but please be patient. Once Daysy knows
your cycle, you will see the benefit.

11
Clean Daysy with a damp cloth when needed. Avoid using too much water,
as Daysy is not waterproof. Alcohol and soap can be used in small amounts
if necessary.
The battery lasts approximately 2 years. If the battery is nearly empty,
Daysy’s activation ring will blink frantically. If you change the battery
within a day or two, your fertility calculations will not be affected. If the
battery depletes completely, Daysy will have to relearn where you are
in your current cycle.
Note: When changing Daysy’s battery, be sure she is “OFF” before removing/replacing her battery.

Daysy learning phase – gives many yellow days.
– Daysy needs to get to know your cycle. The more regularly you measure,
the faster Daysy knows your individual cycle. The first 2 – 3 cycles, Daysy will
be cautious and give you many days of yellow and red. To speed up this pro-
cess, measure every morning. If you miss lots of measurements, Daysy will
show you yellow more often.
– Daysy will also show yellow when your cycle is fluctuating. Ovulation and
menstruation can vary from cycle to cycle, so Daysy will display this with
the yellow indicator.

13
The device does not do anything when the button is pressed.
Replace the battery. CR2032, available everywhere batteries are sold.
The ring blinks frantically.
Replace the battery as soon as possible. Before removing the battery, be sure
that Daysy is off by checking that her lights are not illuminated.
Daysy does not start measuring, but grumble buzzes instead.
Remove the cable before measuring. If the cable is not inserted, turn Daysy
on and then insert and remove the cable several times. Daysy should now
allow a reading.
For further questions of use, please visit our website’s extensive FAQ section at daysy.me
or contact our hotline.

14
Daysy ends the measurement with a grumble buzz
instead of beep-beep.
The measurement timed out and was not successful. Use these tips
and retake your temperature:
– Put the tip of Daysy all the way under your tongue. The tip must
be nicely surrounded by body tissue to get a good measurement.
– Close your mouth while measuring.
– After starting a measurement, do not take Daysy out of your mouth
until you hear a beep-beep.
– If you have a fever, Daysy may not accept the temperature.

15
After I have pressed the button, or after inserting the battery,
Daysy shows the red indicator and the ring is blinking frantically.
Something is wrong with Daysy. Please contact our customer care department.
I am not going to use Daysy in the coming months. What do I need to do?
If you plan not to use Daysy for an extended period of time, clean her,
remove the battery and store Daysy in a dry place. Your data will not be lost.
How does Daysy speak to me?
– Beep-Beep: Daysy is happy with the result, measurement was a success.
– Brrrrrrp (grumble buzz): Daysy is not happy. Measurement went wrong
or there is a problem during the self-test.
– Beep: Any button pressed is confirmed with a short beep.
For further questions of use, please visit our website’s extensive FAQ section at daysy.me
or contact our hotline.
