measurements.

5 Verification of the temperature module is necessary as frequently as dictated by
your Hospital Procedures Policy. When you need to calibrate the temperature
measurement, please contact the manufacturer.

visit to the doctor. Remember to compare the measurement result to the regular
temperature of the patient. Please consult with doctor if you have health concerns.
