The VeraTemp is a top quality clinical thermometer for all the family - quick, accurate and reliable - and especially useful for Babies and Young Children -- The NON-CONTACT design allows instant, accurate temperature readings to be taken with no touch and no fuss. Just point the thermometer 5-8cm from the forehead and click the scan button to get an INSTANT reading, even while the child is asleep -- This technology and method of temperature taking is proven to be as accurate and reliable as oral, rectal and tympanic (ear) thermometry, but has the huge advantage of being non-invasive - making it perfect for babies and toddlers. And of course it works equally well for older children and adults -- The VeraTemp is also more reliable than digital ear thermometers which are difficult to position correctly for accurate readings and can cause discomfort in the very young. And of course it does not require any probe covers, saving extra expense -- The COLOUR backlit display screen allows the temperature to be read even in a dark room and for quick guidance displays 'traffic light' style colours according to the temperature result: In 'Body' mode GREEN (Normal) is for temperature 36.3 - 37.3°C, AMBER (Elevated) 37.4 - 37.9°C, and RED (High) above 38°C -- The built-in MEMORY records the last 32 temperature readings for instant recall -- MULTI-USE: By selecting from 3 modes - Body, Surface, Room - you can get instant, accurate temperature readings for a whole range of uses: Body temperature (Baby, Child, Adult) - Bottle/Formula - Food - Bath water - Room temperature -- The non-contact design means the instrument is perfectly hygienic, and no expensive probe covers are needed -- It is also completely safe: Medical Device Class IIa, CE 0123 Certified, FDA Approved -- VeraTemp brings every Mum the comfort of a trusted device when precision and reliability matter most -- FREE Spare Batteries included: 2 sets (4 x AAA) in brand new sealed pack
