4. Information about this thermometer
The temperature measurement varies depending on the part of the body where the measurement is taken. In a healthy person, the
variance can be between 0.2°C and 1°C (0.4 °F and 1.8°F) in dierent parts of the body.
Normal temperature range with various thermometers:
Measurements Thermometer used
Forehead temperature 35.8°C to 37.6°C (96.4°F to 99.7°F) Forehead thermometer
Ear temperature 36.0°C to 37.8°C (96.8°F to 100.0°F) Ear thermometer
Oral temperature 36.0°C to 37.4°C (96.8°F to 99.3°F) Conventional thermometer
Rectal temperature 36.3°C to 37.8°C (97.3°F to 100.0°F) Conventional thermometer
Beurer tip
• T
emperatures measured with dierent thermometers should never be compared with one another.
• T
ell 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 yourself.
Holding the thermometer in your hand for too long before taking a measurement can cause the device to warm up. This
means the measurement could be incorrect.

Influences on body temperature

person’s individual metabolism
• A
ge
Body temperature is higher in babies and toddlers than in adults. Greater temperature fluctuations occur faster and more often in
children. Normal body temperature decreases with age.

• T
ime of day
Body temperature is lower in the morning and increases throughout the day towards evening.
Activities
• P
hysical and, to a lesser extent, mental activities increase body temperature.
Beurer tip
Taking the body temperature provides a current measurement of a person’s temperature. If you are uncertain about in-
terpreting the results or if the values are abnormal (e.g. fever), please consult your doctor. This also applies in the case
of slight temperature changes if there are other symptoms of illness such as agitation, heavy sweating, flushed skin, fast
pulse rate, tendency to collapse, etc.
