Understanding Body
Temperature
Normal body temperature is a range
and not a xed value. Body temperature
uctuates throughout the day and is
generally lower in the morning and
higher in the evening. Body temperature
is also lower as one ages. An infant
can have a higher normal temperature
than an adult. Additionally, temperature
taken at different parts of the body (oral,
axilla, rectum and ear) will have different
temperature ranges. Therefore, body
temperature from different parts of the
body should not be directly compared.
The normal temperature range for the
Swaive ear thermometer for different
ages is shown below.
Age
(years)
Range
(°C)
Range
(°F)
0-2 36.4-38.0 97.5-100.4
3-10 36.1-37.8 97.0-100.0
11-65 35.9-37.6 96.6-99.7
>65 35.8-37.5 96.4-99.5
The Swaive thermometer app can learn
each family member’s normal body
temperature range and compensate
for variations that may typically exist.
Use the Swaive app on yourself and
your family members to determine the
normal temperature range.
Why Use the Ear?
Human body temperature is controlled
and regulated by the hypothalamus in
the brain. The blood owing through
the hypothalamus also ows through
the ear drum. The Swaive thermometer
uses infrared technology to measure
the energy emitted from the ear drum
and the surrounding tissue. This is
safely and accurately converted into
core body temperature.

Correct Usage
1. Measurements should only be taken with
a probe cover. A new and clean probe
cover before every measurement.
2. To obtain the most accurate temperature,
the ear should be gently tugged allowing
a clear view of the ear drum (gure A). If
the ear is not tugged, then a incorrect
temperature reading could be taken
(gure B). Tugging the ear straightens
the ear canal providing a clear passage
to the ear drum. While tugging the ear, t
the probe snugly into the ear canal.
3. For children under 1 year (older than 6
months), pull the ear straight back (gure
C). For children aged 1 year to adult, pull
the ear up and back (gure D).
Taking Safe & Accurate Readings
• Please use a new and clean hygienic
cover for every measurement.
• Do not use the thermometer outside of the
normal operating ambient temperature of
10°C (50°F) ~ 40°C (104°F).
