100.0 °C (32.0 °F to 212.0 °F), meaning the unit can be used as
an ear thermometer to measure body temperature , it also has a
feature allowing it to be used to measure surface temperature of
the following examples:
• Milk surface temperature in a baby’s bottle
• Surface temperature of a baby’s bath
• Ambient temperature
Probe Cover Free and Probe LED
This thermometer is more user-friendly and more cost-effective
since a probe cover is not required.
This thermometer includes a probe LED light which enables the

3. How this Ear Thermometer measures Temperature
This thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from the
eardrum and the surrounding tissue. This energy is collected
through the lens and converted to a temperature value.
The measured reading obtained directly from the eardrum
(Tympanic Membrane) can ensure the most accurate ear
