The Braun ThermoScan thermometer has been

carefully developed for accurate, safe and fast

temperature measurements in the ear. The shape

of the thermometer probe prevents it from being

inserted too far into the ear canal and hurting the

eardrum.

However, as with any thermometer,

proper technique is very important

to obtaining accurate temperatures.

Therefore, read the use instructions

carefully and thoroughly.

Important

• The operating ambient temperature range for

this thermometer is 50 – 104 °F (10 – 40 °C).

• Do not expose the thermometer to temperature

extremes (below –4 °F / –20 °C or over 122 °F /

50 °C) nor excessive humidity (> 95 % RH).

• This thermometer must only be used with

genuine Braun ThermoScan Lens Filters. Other

lens filters can lead to inaccuracy.

• To avoid inaccurate measurements always use

this thermometer with a new, clean lens filter

attached.

• If the thermometer is accidentally used without

a lens filter attached, clean the lens (see «Care

and cleaning»).

• Keep lens filters out of reach of children.

• This thermometer is intended for household

use only.

• Use of this thermometer is not intended as a

substitute for consultation with your physician.

Body temperature

Normal body temperature is a range. The following

table shows that this normal range also varies by

site. Therefore, measurements from different sites

should not be directly compared.

• A person’s normal temperature range tends to

decrease with age. The following table shows

normal ThermoScan ranges by age.

The range of normal also varies from person to

person and fluctuates throughout the day.

It is therefore important to determine normal

temperature ranges. This is easily done using

Braun ThermoScan. Practice taking temperatures

on yourself and healthy family members to

determine each person’s normal temperature

range.

Note: When consulting your physician, com-

municate that the ThermoScan temperature is a

temperature measured in the ear and if possible,

note the individual’s normal ThermoScan

temperature range as additional reference.
