The product has been designed to help you ensure that your bathwater is
at a safer and more comfortable temperature for your child. The
thermometer works by measuring the bathwater temperature every
second, and displays the current temperature in degree Celsius on the
center of the LCD screen. The LCD also provides a color-coded backlight
based on the measured water temperature. The colors are orange if the
water temperature is too cold , green if the water temperature is just
right, and red if the water temperature is too hot.
