User questions & answers

Question:	I have taken my temperature twice and i keep getting a reading of only 97.6 deg. f. why is it reading so low? can it be calibrated
Answer:	My normal temp for past few years has been 97.2. I found this helpful explanation about measurement differences on the body: "Although there is no one “normal” temperature reading, a temperature, taken orally, ranging between 97°F and 100°F is considered normal. A rectal temperature is generally 1° higher and an underarm (auxillary) temperature will be 1° lower."
Question:	When it says low on it does this indicates the battery is low
Answer:	Thank you for your inquiry. When the thermometer says "Lo", that means it is reading the current temperature around it and is ready to take a temperature. Once it says "Lo", it is ready to take your temperature. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact our consumer relations team by emailing us at [email protected]. Thank you.
Question:	where is the vicks V912 thermometer manufactured
Answer:	Thank you for your inquiry. This thermometer was manufactured in China. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact our consumer relations team by emailing us at [email protected]. Thank you.
Question:	Why so many negative reviews
Answer:	I have one. The battery died quickly. The replacement batteries only lasted a SHORT time. Next time I get a digital thermometer that takes something like AAA or AA batteries, since when you are sick, needing to fool around with tiny batteries, needing to buy batteries, etc. isn't acceptable.

Why Measure in the Ear?

Braun ThermoScan measures the infrared heat generated by the eardrum and surrounding tissue. The ear accurately reflects the core body temperature because the eardrum shares the blood supply with the temperature control center in the brain, making the ear an excellent site to measure temperature. When core body temperature rises, it is quickly detectable in the ear.

Choose the Ear Thermometer Brand most used by Pediatricians.

Based on July 2017 Ardent Consulting Survey reporting that of the surveyed pediatricians who recommend a brand of thermometers to their patients, Braun is the most recommended brand, and of the surveyed pediatricians that use a branded thermometer, Braun is the most frequently used brand.

Great for Infants, Toddlers, and Adults

The Braun ThermoScan is designed to take the body temperature of your family in a fast, gentle and easy to use way and give you some peace of mind when your child comes down with a fever. Used by more pediatricians' offices than any other thermometer brand, the ThermoScan features a pre-warmed tip that improves accuracy, a unique guidance system that ensures precise results, and infrared technology that takes your child's temperature in seconds.

Pre-warmed tip with ExacTemp

Unlike other thermometers, Braun ThermoScan features a pre-warmed tip that minimizes the cooling effect that could result from the introduction of a cool probe tip. The patented pre-warmed tip helps ensure accuracy, measurement after measurement to a tenth of a degree. The patented ExacTemp positioning system confirms good position in the ear with a light and a beep to ensure accurate temperature measurement.

Disposable Lens Filters

Designed so you can easily switch between users without having to spend time cleaning the probe. Use a clean disposable hygienic lens filter with each measurement:

1) To maintain hygiene 2) to protect your child from cross-contamination 3) to ensure earwax residues do not impact accuracy of the reading.

Fast, Gentle, and Easy to Use

Speed of measurement is important, especially when measuring the temperature of a child. Braun ThermoScan accurately takes your child's temperature in just few seconds.

Recall Last Temperature Taken

Memory function recalls the last temperature reading allowing you to keep track of of fluctuations.

Audio Temperature Indicator

Number of beeps indicates normal (1 beep), elevated (2 beeps), and high temperature (4 beeps).

Memory Function

Accurate

Measures the infrared heat generated by the eardrum and the surrounding tissues.

Why Measure in the Ear?

Braun ThermoScan measures the infrared heat generated by the eardrum and surrounding tissue. Since the eardrum shares blood supply with the temperature control center in the brain, the ear accurately reflects the core body temperature. When the temperature rises, it is immediately detectable in the ear. The result: the ear is an excellent site to measure temperature.

Lens Filters Improve Accuracy and Safety

To ensure the accuracy of every temperature reading, a new clean lens filter should be used for each measurement. Lens filters protect the tip from scratches, as well as from impurities such as earwax, which might adversely affect the accuracy. Furthermore, exchanging the lens filter before every temperature reading virtually eliminates the risk of spreading germs from one person to the next.

For ease of use, a lens filter detector makes sure that a lens filter always is in place, and a lens filter ejector makes removing used lens filters as easy as can be.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it measure in degrees Celsius
Answer:	Yes, it certainly does. To change units on your thermometer, press the ON/OFF button twice in rapid succession while the thermometer is turned on. To change the units used in the app, click on the “Menu” icon and select the “Settings” icon. An icon will be displayed to indicate which mode the thermometer is in. Touch the icon to switch modes. Hope that helps!
Question:	What’s the best way to clean this so not to damage the thermometer if sharing amongst the family
Answer:	You can clean the probe before and after use with a damp, soapy cloth or by disinfecting it with rubbing alcohol (70% isopropyl alcohol). Then, just wipe it dry with a soft cloth and you'll be all set! We hope that helps. :-)
Question:	Do you have to use the smart phone app to read the temp
Answer:	The Kinsa QuickCare smart thermometer can take and show temperature readings on its own, BUT there are some things you should know if you don't want to use any smart features. Out of the box, QuickCare shows "APP" on the display. This prompts you to connect with the Kinsa app before it will let you take readings. In a pinch, you can temporarily skip this APP message and take readings immediately by quickly double pressing the button. QuickCare will go into temperature taking mode and allow you to take readings. For a quick demo, watch this video: kinsa.help/skipAPPmessage But this is not how QuickCare was designed to work. If you're looking for just a simple thermometer without any smart features, this smart thermometer may not be a good fit for you. Got any more questions? Text us at (415) 236-4811 or get in touch at kinsa.help/ContactUs
Question:	Can this thermometer be used like a regular digital thermometer or does it work only with the app
Answer:	This Kinsa QuickCare thermometer can be used on its own - no app required. Click the button once to turn it on, then when APP appears on the display, double click the same button and you're done! APP will change to three flashing lines showing that it's ready to take a temperature. For a demonstration, watch this video: kinsa.help/skipAPP - The Kinsa Customer Happiness Team 😀

Important Tips for All Temperature Readings

• Always wait for three flashing lines on the display before every reading. Wait at least 15 minutes to take a reading after eating, drinking, exercising or bathing.
• If you or your Kinsa were outside on a cold day, wait until you are used to the new temperature before taking a reading.
• A person’s body temperature will fluctuate depending on the time of the day. The best method to determine your own normal temperature is to record it twice a day (early morning and late afternoon) when feeling well. The average of the two is considered your normal body temperature.

Underarm Readings

Wipe armpit with a dry towel and make sure that no clothes are in the way. Place the thermometer probe in the armpit and keep your arm pressed firmly against the body. In general, a normal underarm temperature is considered 35.8°C - 37.2°C (96.5°F - 98.9°F). Also, please note that underarm readings are typically 0.6°C (1°F) lower than oral readings; this is perfectly normal. The Kinsa app automatically takes underarm readings into account when calculating the severity of the fever, but it does not artificially add that 0.6°C (1°F) to the temperature reading.

Oral Readings

For oral readings, always place the probe tip of the thermometer in your mouth’s heat pocket - under the tongue at the back of the mouth. Keep your mouth closed while the temperature reading is being taken. The temperature in one spot of the mouth can be very different from another so always put the probe tip in the same heat pocket for every reading. A normal oral temperature is considered 36.1°C - 37.7°C (97.0°F - 99.9°F).

Rectal Readings

Consider applying a bit of petroleum jelly on the QuickCare tip to make it easier to insert. Place your baby on a firm surface, either on her stomach or back, with legs lifted up to the chest (think diaper-changing position). Insert the probe tip about ½ inch inside the rectum. Never insert the probe past the metal tip. Stop if you meet any resistance. Hold QuickCare between two fingers while keeping your hand cupped around your baby's bottom (you might need to squeeze the cheeks together to hold it in place). Remember, rectal temperatures tend to be about 0.3°C (0.5°F) higher than oral and 0.6°C (1°F) higher than underarm readings. In general, a normal rectal temperature is considered 36.4°C - 37.9°C (97.5°F - 100.3°F). If you'd like to verify your results, be sure to wait 5 minutes first for the most accurate second reading.
