Congratulations on your purchase and thank you for your confidence!You have purchased a quality product by MEDISANA, one of the world’s leading companies in the health care market. To ensure the best results and long-term satisfaction with your MEDISANA FTO Infra-red Ear Thermometer, we recommend that you read the following operating and maintenance instructions carefully. [. . . ] The display will immediately show the temperature measured and automatically store the result. In the case of a raised body temperature (above 37, 5 °C / 99, 5 °F) you will hear 10 short tones after the reading has been taken. 5 seconds, the unit will be ready to take another reading when the unit of measurement symbol (°C / °F) starts to flash. After taking 3 – 5 consecutive readings, wait for approx. 30 seconds before taking a further reading. In each of the following cases, you should take three consecutive readings in the same ear, using the highest reading as a reference: • With newly born children under 3 months old. € With children under 3 years of age who suffer from diseases of the immune system, and with persons for whom deviations from normal body temperature can be dangerous. € If you are not familiar with taking temperature and there are large discrepancies between consecutive readings. 3 Other temperature readings The infra-red thermometer can also be used to measure the temperature of surfaces, such as the skin or of babies’ bottles. To do this, switch on the thermometer and hold the sensor gently against the object to be measured. After you hear a short tone, the unit is ready to use. Give the START button  a short press and keep the thermometer in place until a long tone sounds, signalling the end of the reading. The result is shown on the backlit LCD display and stored automatically. If the result is not within the range 32 °C to 42, 2 °C, a crossed-out ear symbol will appear in the display. When measuring the temperature of liquids, e. , you must only insert the light-grey sensor tip. Make sure that no liquid can get into the unit. 4 Switching off The thermometer features an energy-saving function and will switch off automatically if no buttons are pressed for 45 seconds.
