Thermometer
Easy Touch
Dear user, thank you for purchasing our
product!
Easy Touch Plus is the innovative 2-in-1
multifunction infrared
that is able to read and register both body
temperatures and ambient temperatures.
This thermometer was designed by a very
experienced group of engineers and was
produced in conformance to all the applicable
European Standards.
measures the infrared
the forehead surface and converts these
measurements into an oral equivalent
temperature.
Keep the product away from children and
don't leave the children alone while taking
measurement. This thermometer contains
small parts which could be accidentally eaten
by children. In case of doubts or temperature
rise, consult your doctor
"FEVER" MODE
Forehead readings in just 5 seconds. A combined
visual and acoustic warning system is triggered
when temperatures exceed 37.5°C: No Fever –
green light, Fever – red light and beep.
BODY TEMPERATURE
Like blood pressure, body temperature
varies from person to person and undergoes
different fluctuations during the course of
the day, running approximately from 35.5°C
to 37.8°C (95.9°F – 100°F). For these reasons,
to correctly determine the temperature it
is suggested to know one's normal, healthy
forehead temperature at various times of
the day. This will provide a valid reference
when evaluating any real rise in temperature.
To determine if one has a fever, compare
the temperature detected with the person's

normal temperature. Remember, a rise
over the reference body temperature of 1°C
(1.8°F) or more is generally indication of
fever. More than this, different measurement
sites (rectal, axillary, oral, frontal, auricular)
will give different readings and it is hard to
make correlations which are significant and
objectively valid for each person. It is therefore
absolutely normal that body temperature
taken orally will be different from an axillary
measurement and it is wrong to compare
the two. Here below typical temperatures for
adults, based on different measurement sites:
- Rectal: 36.6 – 38°C / 97.9 – 100.4° F
- Axillary: 34.7 – 37.3°C / 94.5 – 99.1° F
- Oral: 35.5 – 37.5°C / 95.9 – 99.5° F
- Auricular:35.8 – 38°C / 96.4 – 100.4° F
HOW TO MEASURE TEMPERATURE
Precautions
• The thermometer compensates the reading
of the forehead's temperature based on
the room's temperature. For this reason, to
optimise the result, before taking the reading,
the thermometer should be at least 20-25
minutes in the room where the temperature
will be measured and the person whose
temperature is being taken should be in
the same room for 5 minutes before the
measurement. Avoid direct sunlight, fireplace
heat and direct air conditioner flow on the
forehead while taking the temperature.
• Clean the forehead from sweat, makeup,
etc., and wait a few minutes before taking a
reading.
• Avoid measuring temperature for 30 minutes
after physical exercise, bathing or eating.
• When pointed at a hot object, the probe reads
temperature at a distance. To avoid erroneous
readings, minimise the time from when the
thermometer is ready to when it scans the
forehead.
• Do not touch the sensor or the surrounding
metallic part with your fingers. If there are
fingerprint marks, clean as indicated in "CARE
AND MAINTENANCE"
