Very gently wipe the surface with a cotton swab or soft cloth moistened with alcohol. After the
alcohol has completely dried out, you can put a new lens filter on and take a temperature
measurement.
If the probe tip is damaged, please contact local service center.
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the thermometer display and exterior. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Never submerge this thermometer in water or any other liquid. Store thermometer and lens filters
in a dry location free from dust and contamination and away from direct sunlight.
Additional lens filters (LF 40) are available at most stores carrying Braun ThermoScan®.

2. Open the battery compartment. Remove the batteries and replace with new batteries, making
sure the poles are in the right direction.
