<p><b>Taking oral measurements</b><br> Stick the ProTemp Flex DTR-1221A in your mouth under your tongue in one of the so-called heat pockets, to the left or right of your tongue root. Close your mouth and press the button. Wait 10-20 seconds till you hear a beep. Your results are ready!</p> <p><b>Taking rectal measurements</b><br> Wipe a small amount of petroleum jelly on the end of the probe. Put your baby on their back with their knees pointed towards their chest. Make sure they are secure and do not wiggle around too much. Turn on the thermometer and carefully insert the probe half an inch into the rectum. Gently hold the thermometer until it beeps, then take it out carefully and read the temperature.</p> <p>Clean the thermometer with rubbing alcohol or soap after every use. Never use the same thermometer you have used rectally to measure oral temperature.</p> <p><b>Simple but awesome fever indication</b><br> Know the severeness of your fever with a glance at the helpful indicator emoji’s. A beeping alarm will sound when your temperature reaches above 100.4°F, making it easy to recognise if you are running a fever.</p> <p><b>Soft & flexible tip</b><br> Measure orally with more comfort as the flexible tip molds to your mouth. Take your baby’s rectal temperature safely, even when they wiggle around a lot.</p> <p><b>Keep it clean</b><br> We made the DTR-1221A waterproof! Wash it with soap and water without the fear of breaking it. Next to that, the thermometer comes in a hard case for extra hygienic storage.</p> <p><b><i>Our DTR-1221A won’t let you down.
