Beurer tip

•

Temperatures measured with dierent thermometers should never be compared

with one another.

•

Tell your doctor what type of thermometer you used to take your temperature

and on what part of the body. Also bear this in mind if you are diagnosing your-

self.

Holding the thermometer for too long in the hand before taking a measurement can

cause the device to warm up. This means the measurement could be incorrect.
