It’s made of soft and flexible silicone that never gets hot even when the light has been on all night. The light is dimmable and can even be switched off so the light won’t disturb your or the baby’s sleep, and it plugs into a USB for power so there are no batteries to worry about. It’s simple, elegant, practical and affordable. When you power on the unit you will see the icon for measuring the temperature of your child’s forehead on the screen and you will hear 2 beeps. This is the default mode. The scanner lens is the most delicate part of the thermometer. Be careful when cleaning the lens to avoid damage. See care and cleaning section.

This thermometer also features a No-Sound mode to take your child’s temperature as they sleep so as not to risk waking them up. You can even use this unit to measure the temperature of the baby’s food, drinks and bathwater.

In power off mode, press and hold the START button then press the STAND-BY (ON/MEM) button for 3 seconds. °C will switch to °F. If you press and hold the START button, the reading of measurement will be continuously updated. This is useful if you want to know the temperature of water, milk, cloth, skin or other objects around your baby. To avoid risk of choking from swallowing small parts or batteries please keep the device out of the reach of children and pets. Ease of reading results - Is the result displayed digitally or do you need to measure and interpret the reading yourself? Does it give a reading in both Celsius and Fahrenheit, or can you alternate between the two? If you’re worried your child is unwell, the sooner you can see the result the better. Your patient and device should be in the same stable ambient (room) temperature for 15 minutes before taking the temperature.

NOTE: When you switch between °C and °F, this will clear any temperature records stored in the thermometer’s memory. The ThermoScan 7 can provide a reading in one second, perfect if you have a wriggly toddler, and it will warn you if you haven’t positioned it properly for an accurate result every time. This thermometer will also store the last nine readings, which is really useful when trying to establish if your little one is getting better or worse, or if you need to relay any readings to a doctor. This little device will always float at the surface, keeping your little one entertained, so you can comfortably see the temperature reading at all times. Not only will it tell you when the water is at a suitable enough temperature for the baby to get in, but it will also tell you when it’s getting a bit chilly so you can take them out too. It also comes with a little stand for you to place it on when using it as a room thermometer.Research has shown that what could be classed as a fever in a newborn baby could actually be a normal temperature in a four-year-old child. This clever device uses Braun’s patented Age Precision technology based on this research that adjusts the fever guidance and warning messages based on your child’s age.
