Some Helpful Guidelines For Best Results
When Using the Vicks OneSecond Ear
Thermometer,
• Practice until you receive consistent readings.
• Unit is calibrated with a Probe Cover.
Accuracy can only be assured when Probe
Covers are used.
• Call your doctor when your child has diarrhea,
vomiting or changes in appetite, lethargy
(sluggishness) or is unusually sleepy.
• 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.
• A child’s normal temperature can be as high
as 37.7 °C (99.9 °F). Re-measure with a
standard digital thermometer for confirmation.
