GB QUESTIONS REGARDING Body TEMPERATURE 4.0 4.1 Questions regarding aural (ear) temperature What is aural temperature? 4.2 How is aural temperature measured correctly? 4.3 Why is the ear the best place to measure body temperature? The body temperature relates to the internal temperature of the body (core temperature). Because of this, the inner ear area can accurately reflect fluctuations in body temperature.
QUESTIONS REGARDING Body TEMPERATURE GB body temperature measurements. Normally, rectally measured body temperatures will be 0.3°C higher than body temperatures taken orally, while this area in turn gives values 0.3°C higher than those taken from readings in the armpit. In order to establish your personal normal body temperature, and obtain readings for family members, too, you can take body temperature readings at differing times of the day, over the course of 3 or 4 days, when you are in good health.

BASIC FUNCTIONS GB 7.0 Basic Functions 7.1.1 In standby mode, the current date, time and ambient temperature will be displayed. The date display range lies between 2001-2099 (Gregorian calendar), the time display can be set to be displayed in either 12 or 24-hour format. The starting time when instrument is reset is set to be 01.01.2008. An announcement of the time and the ambient temperature can be made by pressing the [TALK/OK] button.
TIME MODE 8.0 GB Time mode Step 1 - standard display The following data will be displayed when in time mode: Year, month, day, hour, minute and ambient temperature reading. The two flashing dots between the hour and minute displays indicate the passing of second-long intervals. The display of hours and minutes (see Fig. 1) alternates roughly every 5 seconds with the ambient temperature display (see Fig. 2).
Memory mode GB 9.0 Memory mode - calling up the measuring results D Press the [MEM/SET] button when in time display mode in order to be able to read off the saved temperature measurement readings. If no measurement reading has taken place, the display will appear as shown in illustration fig. D. If temperature measurements have taken place, then these will be displayed in turn by each successive pressing of the [MEM/SET] button (see fig. E).
SET-UP MODE GB 10.0 Set-up mode Step 1: In order to get into the set-up mode, you should hold down the button [MEM/SET] for around 2 seconds. Now the 12 or 24 hour setting will flash. If the [MEM/SET] button is now pressed down once again, you can set the display to be on either 12 or 24 hours.
GB Scope of supply/part data 11.0 Measuring temperature in the ear Fig. 1 Make sure, before taking each ear temperature reading, that the measuring sensor and the ear canal are clean, because otherwise the reading will be inaccurate. For ear temperature to be taken, the plug-in attachment (see page 10, Nr. 5, Fig. 1) must be taken off. Pull the ear gently back and insert the measuring probe (measuring sensor) along the ear canal, pointing towards the eardrum. Set the sliding switch (page 10, Nr. 5, Fig.
CHANGING THE BATTERY GB 13.0 Changing the battery A C B Step 1: Press down lightly on the cover of the battery compartment and slide it out to the right (see Fig. A). Now you can take out both of the AAA batteries and insert new batteries in their place. Pay attention to the correct polarity (+ = positive pole, - = negative pole). The correct position of the batteries is indicated on the bottom of the battery compartment.
Technische Störungen GB 14.0 Technical malfunctions Error No response Checklist Batteries flat? Countermeasure Insert new batteries. Batteries badly inserted? Insert batteries correctly. Battery symbol appears on the LED-Display “Lo“ shown on display (measurement result under 32.0°C) “Hi“ shown on display (measurement result over 42.9°C) “ErrE“ shown on display ErrU“ shown on display “ErrH“ shown on display Low Battery Insert new batteries.
