6. For the next measurement wait until the «°C»/«°F» icon

NOTE:
 Patients and thermometer should stay in similar
room condition for at least 30 minutes.
 Don't take a measurement while or immediately after
nursing a baby.
 Don't use the thermometer in high humidity environments.
 Patients should not drink, eat or exercise before/while
taking the measurement.
 Don't move the measurement device from the measu-
ring area before hearing the termination beep.
 10 short beeps and a red LCD backlight alert the patient
that he/she may have a temperature equal to or higher
than 37.5 °C.
 Always take the temperature in the same location, since
temperature readings may vary according to locations.
 Doctors recommend rectal measurement for newborn
infants within the first 6 months, as all other measuring
methods might lead to ambiguous results. If using a non
6
contact thermometer on those infants, we always recom-
mend verifying the readings with a rectal measurement.
 In the following situations it is recommended that three
temperatures are taken with the highest one taken as
the reading:
1. Children under three years of age with a compro-
mised immune system and for whom the presence or
absence of fever is critical.
2. When the user is learning how to use the thermometer
for the first time until he/she has familiarized himself/
herself with the device and obtains consistent readings.
3. If the measurement is surprisingly low.
 Readings from different measuring sites should not
be compared as the normal body temperature varies
by measuring site and time of day, being highest in the
evening and lowest about one hour before waking up.
Normal body temperature ranges:
- Axillar: 34.7 - 37.3 °C / 94.5 - 99.1 °F
- Oral: 35.5 - 37.5 °C / 95.9 - 99.5 °F
- Rectal: 36.6 - 38.0 °C / 97.9 - 100.4 °F
- Microlife NC 400: 35.4 - 37.4 °C / 95.7 - 99.3 °F

8. Changing between Celsius and Fahrenheit

This thermometer can display temperature readings in
either Fahrenheit or Celsius. To switch the display between
°C and °F, press and hold the MODE button 6 for 3
seconds; the beeper icon is shown on the display. Press
the MODE button again; the current measurement scale
(«°C» or «°F» icon) will be shown on the display AO.
Change the measurement scale between °C and °F by
pressing the MEMO-button 5. When the measurement
scale has been chosen, press the START/IO button 7 to
enter the «ready for measuring» mode; otherwise the
device automatically switches to ready for measuring after
10 seconds AT.
