direct probe-cover-to-skin contact is required.
CAUTION: Long-term continuous temperature monitoring, greater than 5
minutes, is not recommended.
CAUTION: Ensure probe well is properly in place.
CAUTION: Biting the probe tip while taking a temperature may result in
damage to the probe.

the measurement.

before use with Root.
