Replacing the batteries
The thermometer is supplied with two 1.5 V type AA (LR 06). For best 
performance, we recommend Duracell
®
alkaline batteries.
Insert new batteries when the battery symbol appears on the display.
Open the battery compartment. Remove the batteries and replace with 
new batteries, making sure the poles are in the right direction. 
Slide battery door back until it snaps in place.
To protect the environment, dispose of empty batteries at 
appropriate collection sites according to national or local 
regulations.
Calibration
The thermometer is initially calibrated at the time of manufacture. 
If this thermometer is used according to the use instructions, periodic 
re-adjustment is not required. If at any time you question the accuracy 
of temperature measurements, please contact Braun ThermoScan 
customer service at 1-800-327-7226.
