5. Fit the probe snuggly into the ear canal and direct towards opposite

temple. Then push and release the Start button

6. ExacTemp® light will pulse while temperature measurement is in progress. The light will remain

solid for 3 seconds to indicate that a successful temperature reading has been achieved.

NOTE: If the probe has been properly inserted into the ear canal during the measurement, a

long beep will sound to signal the completed measurement.

If the probe has not been constantly placed in a stable position in the ear canal, a sequence of

short beeps will sound, the ExacTemp light will go out and the display will show an error

message (POS = position error).

See «Errors and troubleshooting» section for more information.

been taken. The result is shown on the display. Temperature reading displayed is

an equivalent of oral temperature.

Temperature-taking hints

Replace disposable Hygiene cap with every use to maintain accuracy,

hygiene and to prevent cross-contamination. Earwax and dirt on the tip of

the Hygiene cap, even in a microscopic layer, can create an obstacle

between the sensor and the infrared heat emitted by the ear and impact the

accuracy of the measurement.

External factors like poor probe replacement, used Hygiene cap or dirty Hygiene

cap may inuence ear temperature measurements.

In clinical studies, precision and accuracy of ear thermometer measurement has been shown to be inuenced by

variability in user technique. Correct probe placement is essential for accurate measurements.

Temperature in right and left ear diers, always compare measurements from the same ear. The natural

physiological dierence may reach 0.2 °C. In the absence of confounding factors, in high-risk population (like infants or

immunodepressed people) use the highest of the two to interpret the patient’s temperature.

In the following cases, wait 20 minutes prior to taking a temperature: extreme changes in room temperature, hearing

aid, lying on a pillow. Use the untreated ear if ear drops or other medications have been placed in the ear canal.

Memory mode

1. The last temperature taken is stored in its memory and will be

automatically displayed for 5 seconds when it is turned on again.

Night light feature

The thermometer includes a convenient night light to illuminate the display in a dim

environment.

The light will turn on when you press any button. It will stay on until the thermometer is inactive

for up to 15 seconds even after temperature is taken.

Changing the temperature scale

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 o.

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 conrm the new setting, then the thermometer is turned o 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.
