Forehead measurement
Place the probe gently onto the area approximately 1cm
above the center of the eyebrow. If the eyebrow area is
covered with hair, sweat or dirt, please remove the
obstacle beforehand to improve the reading accuracy.
Press the START button once and release it. Start to
move the instrument steadily from 1 cm above the center
of the eyebrow to the temple area. A long beep sound
will emit after 3 seconds to acknowledge the completion
of measurement. If the probe movement is too slow to
reach the temple area before the long beep sound is
heard, repeat the measurement as described above, but
simply move the probe a little quicker this time.
Read the recorded temperature from the LCD display.
NOTE:

state room condition for at least 30 minutes.

• Before placing the thermometer probe onto the
measurement area, remove dirt, hair, or sweat.
• Don't move the measurement device from the measuring
area before hearing the termination beep.
• Always take the temperature in the same location, since
temperature readings may vary according to location.
