Thermofocus is exceptionally easy to use to take a body temperature from a short distance. However, to avoid incorrect measurements, when taking the fever limit yourself to use Thermofocus in the same circumstances as conventional thermometers (Fig. 1). Use Thermofocus in a draught-free room at a constant temperature between 16°C (60.8°F) and 40°C (104°F).
With Thermofocus there is no need to place the thermometer in any part of your baby's body. A sleeping baby will not be woken when Thermofocus is used nor will it be caused discomfort by the device if awake.

Please refer to the appropriate chapter. The normal temperature taken from the forehead of a healthy person, using Thermofocus, can vary between 35°C (95°F) and 37.5°C (100.4°F), but in an adult, it can also be below 35°C (95°F).

Hold the thermometer perpendicular to the middle of the forehead and move Thermofocus closer to or further from the forehead until a single point of light appears. If the thermometer is too far away from the forehead, you will see two blurred points of light (fig 5). If the thermometer is too close, you will see two precise points of light (fig.

If you need to take your own temperature, you can either use a mirror, or easily show a child of ten years or older how to use Thermofocus. Thermofocus never touches the body so there is no need for expensive disposable lens covers.

TAKING THE TEMPERATURE FROM THE NAVEL If a baby is restless, crying or has a perspiring forehead, or if it proves difficult to take a temperature from the forehead, the reading can be taken from the belly, just on the navel. It is very important to carry this out while the baby is normally dressed.
OTHER MEASUREMENTS Thermofocus can also be used to take other temperatures, using the same method as for the navel (remembering to deduct the figure indicated on the label for 0700 models): the underarm temperature, by raising clothes strictly for the time needed to take a reading (this method is not reliable if the armpits have not been depilated);...
