Infrared thermometers: how to take accurate temperatures without mistakes

Did you know that a contact or contactless infrared thermometer is the quickest way of taking your temperature? It's also very user friendly, but you must take a few minor precautions to get an accurate reading.

Infrared thermometers: be careful of magnetic fields

Keep in mind that infrared thermometers are sensitive to magnetic fields, so it's important to keep them away from mobile phones, televisions and consoles. They should also be kept away from humidity.

Let them adjust!

Before you take your temperature with an infrared thermometer, it's a good idea to let it adjust to the room you're in. This doesn't take long: wait for 15 minutes before taking the measurement.

Infrared auricular thermometers: expand and release the ear

Using an infrared auricular thermometer to take your temperature? Before you insert it, use your fingers to widen your ear and then release it when the thermometer is in. When you let go, you'll get a reading in a few seconds.
