system. Please seek professional advice immediately when there is a
temperature elevation and if you are taking temperature on:
• Neonates and infants under 3 months (Consult your physician

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

Why Braun No touch + forehead thermometer?
Measurement in under 2 seconds
The innovative infrared technology measures forehead
temperature in under 2 seconds, whether you use the
touch or no-touch option.
Accurate and reliable
Due to the unique technology, the Braun No touch +
forehead thermometer captures the heat naturally given
off by the forehead to calculate body temperature. Get the
same professional accuracy whether touching your
forehead with the thermometer or holding it up to 5 cm
away.
Easy to use
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer is non-
invasive. A measurement can be taken even while a child
is sleeping.
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer is less
threatening to a child than a rectal thermometer and
easier to use than other methods.
Safe and hygienic
No-touch option helps minimize spreading of germs.
Completely safe for use on children and adults.

How does Braun No touch + forehead work?
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer measures infrared
energy radiated from the skin at the center of the forehead area. This
captured energy (which is twice as much thermal energy compared to
a traditional forehead thermometer1 ), is collected through the lens and
converted to a body temperature value.
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer has been clinically
tested and proven to be safe and accurate when used in accordance
with its operating instruction manual.
1. A traditional forehead product without any optical system to capture radiated heat.
Fever guidance feature
Fever guidance helps you to better understand the meaning of a
temperature with the color indicated on the display. A green screen
suggests no fever, a yellow screen suggests moderate fever, and red
signals high fever. 10 audible beeps indicate temperatures above
37.4°C to alert that the patient may have a fever.
NOTE: Backlight remains OFF when below temperature readings are registered:
34.4 ≤ T ≤ 35.7°C

you are aiming. If the eyebrow area is
covered with hair, sweat or dirt, please
clean the area beforehand to improve
the reading accuracy.
