Forehead thermometer is a high quality product incorporating the latest technology

and tested in accordance with international standards. With its unique technology,

the Forehead thermometer can provide a stable, heat-interference-free reading with

each measurement. The instrument performs a self-test every time it is switched on

to always guarantee the accuracy of measurements. The Forehead thermometer is

indicated for intermittent measurement and monitoring of temperature for people of

all ages. It is intended for household use only.

Please read these instructions carefully before using this product and keep

the instructions and the thermometer in a safe place.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Keep out of reach of children under 12 years.

Never use the thermometer for purposes other than those it has been intended

for. Please follow the general safety precautions when using on children.

Never immerse the Forehead thermometer into water or other liquids (not

waterproof). For cleaning and disinfecting please follow the instructions in the

“Care and cleaning” section.

Keep the instrument away from direct exposure to the sun and keep it in a dust-

free, dry area at a temperature between 60.8°- 104°F.

Do not use the thermometer if there are signs of damage on the measuring

sensor or on the instrument itself. If damaged, do not attempt to repair

the instrument! Please contact our Consumer Relations Department at:

1-800-327-7226.

This Forehead thermometer consists of high-quality precision parts. Do not

drop the instrument. Protect it from severe impact and shock. Do not twist the

instrument or the measuring sensor.

Please consult your doctor if you see symptoms such as unexplained irritability,

vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, changes in appetite or activity, seizure, muscle

pain, shivering, stiff neck, pain when urinating, etc., even in the absence of fever.

Even in the absence of fever, those who exhibit a normal temperature may still

need to receive medical attention. People who are on antibiotics, analgesics,

or antipyretics should not be assessed solely on temperature readings to

determine the severity of their illness.

English

Temperature elevation may signal a serious illness, especially in adults who are

old, frail, have a weakened immune system, or neonates and infants. Please

seek immediate professional advice when a temperature elevation occurs on

persons whom are:

• Neonates and infants under 3 months

• Over 60 years of age

• Having diabetes mellitus or a weakened immune system (e.g., HIV positive,

cancer chemotherapy, chronic steroid treatment, splenectomy)

• Bedridden (e.g., nursing home patient, stroke, chronic illness, recovering from

surgery)

• A transplant patient (e.g., liver, heart, lung, kidney)

Fever may be blunted or even absent in elderly patients.

It is important to know each individual’s normal temperature when they are well.

This is the only way to accurately diagnose a fever. Take multiple readings when

healthy to determine normal temperature.

This thermometer is not intended for pre-term babies or small-for-gestational

age babies. This thermometer is not intended to interpret hypothermic

temperatures. Do not allow children to take their temperatures unattended.

Do not modify this equipment without authorization of manufacturer.

Use of this Forehead thermometer is not intended as a substitute for

consultation with your physician or pediatrician.

Why use the Braun Forehead thermometer?

Measurement in under 3 seconds

The innovative infrared technology allows measurement of

forehead temperature in under 3 seconds.

Accurate and reliable

Due to advanced technology, the Forehead thermometer

captures the heat naturally given off by the forehead to calculate

oral equivalent temperature.

Easy to use

The Forehead thermometer is non-invasive. A measurement

can be taken even while a child is sleeping.

Design is easy to hold and use.

The Forehead thermometer is less threatening to a child than a

rectal thermometer and easier to use than other methods.

Safe and hygienic

Helps minimize spreading of germs.

Completely safe for use on children and adults.

Auto-Display memory

The last reading is automatically displayed for 2 seconds when the unit is

switched ON.

How the Braun Forehead thermometer works

The Forehead thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from the skin and

surrounding tissue on the center of the forehead. Temperature readings obtained

from the center of the forehead will provide the greatest accuracy with this

thermometer.

The Forehead thermometer has been clinically tested and proven to be safe and

accurate when used in accordance with its operating instruction manual.

Normal temperature is a range. The range of normal also varies from person to

person and ﬂuctuates throughout the day. It is therefore important to determine

your normal temperature range. A person’s normal temperature range tends to

decrease with age.

3 sec

English

The best way to determine your normal temperature range is to use the

thermometer when feeling well. Record readings twice a day (early morning and

late afternoon). Take the average of the two temperatures to calculate normal oral

equivalent temperature.

A child’s normal temperature can be as high as 99.9°F or as low as 97.0°F.

Remeasure with a standard digital thermometer for conﬁrmation, especially on

infants.

Fever guidance feature

Fever guidance helps you to better understand the meaning of your child’s

temperature with the color indicated on the display. The screen displays green if

no fever, yellow when the temperature is slightly elevated and a red alert for fever.

3Position

Position the thermometer on the center of the

forehead. Be sure to hold the thermometer ﬂush

against the forehead. If the center of forehead is

covered with hair, sweat or dirt, please clean the

area beforehand to improve the reading

accuracy.

beeping is heard to let you know the

thermometer is working. Do not remove the

thermometer from the forehead until you hear

the long, 2-second conﬁrmation beep.

5Read temperature

At the conﬁrmation beep, remove the

thermometer from the forehead and read the

temperature. The screen will illuminate the

appropriate color for the temperature

reading. Green for normal temperatures,

Yellow for slightly elevated temperatures,

and Red indicates that fever may

be present.

To repeat

Go to step 3.

6To turn off

Press the power button. To conserve battery power,

the unit will automatically shut down after 20 seconds

of no use.

English

Temperature taking hints

Patients should stay in steady - state room condition for at least 30 minutes.

Hold the thermometer ﬂush against the center of the forehead without moving

the patient or the thermometer for the duration of the 3 second measurement.

Do not remove the thermometer from the forehead before hearing the ﬁnal beep.

Do not take a measurement while or immediately after nursing a baby.

Do not use the Forehead thermometer in high humidity environments.

Patients should not drink, eat, or be physically active before/while taking the

measurement.

Before placing the thermometer sensor onto the forehead, remove dirt, hair, or

sweat.

Use an alcohol swab to carefully clean the sensor and wait for 5 minutes before

taking a measurement on another patient. Wiping the forehead with a warm

or cool cloth may impact your reading. It is advised to wait 15 minutes before

taking a reading.

In the following situations it is recommended that three temperatures be taken

and the highest one taken as the reading:

• Newborn infants in the ﬁrst 100 days.

• Children under three years of age with a compromised immune system and

for whom the presence or absence of fever is critical.

• When the user is learning how to use the thermometer for the ﬁrst time

until he/she has familiarized himself/herself with the instrument and obtains

consistent readings.

Memory mode

The Braun Forehead thermometer includes a memory feature to recall the last

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

be automatically displayed for 2 seconds when it is turned on.

Calibration

The thermometer is initially calibrated at the time of manufacture. If this

thermometer is used according to the use instructions, periodic re-adjustment

is not required. If at any time you question the accuracy of temperature

measurements, please contact Consumer Relations.

Replacing the batteries

The Forehead thermometer comes with 2 AAA batteries.

To install the batteries, slide open the battery door as shown.

Insert 2 AAA batteries, correctly positioning with positive “+” and

negative “-” as shown. Replace the battery door and close

securely.

management directions.

Care and cleaning

Use an alcohol swab or cotton swab moistened with alcohol

(70% Isopropyl) to clean the thermometer casing and the

measuring probe. Ensure that no liquid enters the interior of the

thermometer. Never use abrasive cleaning agents, thinners or

benzene for cleaning and never immerse the instrument in water

or other cleaning liquids. Take care not to scratch the surface of

the LCD by replacing the protective cap after use.
