Wait until 30 minutes until the thermometer has adapted to the room temperature - at this time, you can set the date and time. Then make sure that the end icon appears and flashes _not_. Then put the thermometer to the temple. Then press the scan button. Then circle / move and wait for the long confirmation tone is emitted. Then read. Now wait until the end symbol _not_ stops flashing. Then measure again. Thats how it works.
If you operate it correctly, it works great: Fast readings to undress without the child. However, if you expected that the decimal never twitches, is not happy.
A few improvement I see in the operability. The date and time could be saved in a forehead thermometer, however. Fortunately, the Janosch-Design is very discreet ;-)
Nice product, I am pleased with a good buy.
