Braun ThermoScan 7 IRT6520 Bedienungsanleitung Seite 5

How to change temperature between °C and °F
Your Braun ThermoScan is shipped with the Celsius (°C) temperature scale activated . If you wish to switch to Fahrenheit
(°F) and/or back from Fahrenheit to Celsius, proceed as follows:
1 . Make sure the thermometer is turned off .
2 . Press and hold down the Power button . After about 3 seconds the display will show this
sequence: °C / SET / °F / SET .
3 . Release the Power button when the desired temperature scale is shown . There will be a
short beep to confirm the new setting, then the thermometer is turned off automatically .
Care and cleaning
The probe tip is the most delicate part of the thermometer . It must be clean and intact to ensure accurate
readings . If the thermometer is ever accidentally used without a Hygiene cap, clean the probe tip as follows:
Very gently wipe the surface with a cotton swab or soft cloth moistened with alcohol . After the
alcohol has completely dried out, you can put a new Hygiene cap on and take a temperature
measurement .
If the probe tip is damaged, please contact Consumer Relations .
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the thermometer display and exterior . Do not use abrasive cleaners .
Never submerge this thermometer in water or any other liquid . Store thermometer and Hygiene
caps in a dry location free from dust and contamination and away from direct sunlight .
Additional Hygiene caps (LF 40) are available at most stores carrying Braun ThermoScan .
Replacing the batteries
The thermometer is supplied with two 1 .5 V type AA (LR 06) batteries . For best performance, we recommend alkaline
batteries .
1 . Insert new batteries when the battery symbol appears on the display .
2 . Open the battery compartment . Remove the batteries and replace with new batteries, making
sure the poles are in the right direction .
3 . Snap battery door into place .
Only discard empty batteries . They should not be disposed of in the household waste, but
at appropriate collection sites or at your retailer .
