This unique no-touch and touch forehead thermometer uses breakthrough technology to make taking temperature easier, stress-free and incredibly accurate. This innovative dual technology means that you get fast and precise temperature readings two ways.
You can take your child's temperature by holding the thermometer in front of your child's forehead up to 5cm away. The thermometer doesn't touch the forehead at all, therefore reducing stress for your child. The temperature can then be taken without any risk of waking them if they're asleep. The no-sound mode can also be used so that your child's temperature can be taken almost silently
Using the forehead to take a temperature is a gentler way to monitor a fever than other methods, and it's clinically proven to be as accurate and reliable as any other. It's also extremely hygienic, as there is no contact with the forehead which helps to stop contamination passing from one family member to another. However, if you need further reassurance when your child is awake for instance, the thermometer can be used in Touch mode and placed directly onto the forehead.
For an accurate measurement, it is important that the temperature is taken in the right location - between the eyebrows. To ensure that this happens, the new Braun No-Touch and Touch Forehead Thermometer has a proximity sensor. This guides the thermometer onto your child's forehead to position it at the correct distance of up to five centimetres away. Taking their temperature this way with a proximity sensor and light is essential to get the most accurate readings every time.
