Tips for measuring your temper ature

LAD Y-COM P® will wake yo u up with a tone. To switch o the tone, click the c ontrol button. To measure your temp erature, just p ress any button on th e home screen . LADY-COMP® will be rea dy to measure when the “ Measurement” symbol star ts to blink.

– Now place t he sensor und er your tongue a nd close your mo uth. – Me asurement wil l take approx. 6 0 seconds. If no measureme nt

value can b e determined af ter 3 minutes, the measurem ent will be

cancelled automatically.

– The displ ay shows measur ement values fro m 34.5 to 41.0°C. – From 37.8°C upwards, the mea surement value will alternate

with F for feve r.

– On ce the measur ement is comple ted, you will h ear a tone and

your current temperature wi ll appear on th e screen. It w ill also show your fer tility statu s for that day.

Measurement period

The measu rement period is the time spa n in which you may proceed t o measure your basa l body temperature every day. This time spa n is monitored b y the LAD Y-COM P® device. Th e measurement period is inde pendent of the alarm and i s calculated b ased on the time you too k your measurem ent on the previ ous day (-3/+3 hours). The measu rement period extends over 6 hours and begins/ends three hours before an d after the last m easurement ti me, if this poi nt in time does not coinci de with the time you wake up the n ext day.

Tips for the measure ment perio d:

- The measu rement perio d is displayed i n form of a measurem ent symbol on t he home scree n.

- Within th e measurement period, pres sing any button on the home screen will st art the meas uring process .

- We recommen d using the L ADY-COMP® alarm to wake you.

- Should you wake up any time w ithin the mea surement period, e .g. because yo u have to nurse you r child, star t

to measure your temperature.

- Should you get up after th e measurement period is over, skip that m easurement.

- You may redene the measurem ent period at a ny time by resetting the alarm (e.g. on weekends or i n case of working nightshifts).

After measurement, you will possibly see «M» = menstruation blinking.

– In case of «M» yes, conr m «M» with «up » yes. – In case of «M» no, reject «M» with «down» no.

As soon as LADY-CO MP

knows everything about your cycle, the

device will pr ompt you for «M» on days tha t «M» is expected.

– The prompt ing for «M» («M» b linking) sta rts two days pr ior to «M». – Once «M» is over, LADY-COMP® will stop p rompting for «M ».

After th ree measure ment-free d ays, the mea surement p eriod will b e cleared a gain and

measure ment will on ly be possib le the day af ter, in conj unction wit h an activat ed alarm.

The measu rement per iod will th en again de pend on the wake-up ti me (-3/+3 hours).

Please no te:

Conrm «M» on at least thr ee successive days. If you have «M » without be ing prompted by yo ur device, act ivate «M» as des cribed. Should you h ave erroneously input «M», yo u may correct «M » on the sam e day and three day s backwards.
