THERMOMETER FUNCTIONS
A built-in sensor measures temperature and shows the measured value on the display. The readout from the
temperature sensor can also be switched between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F).
Temperature Measurements
•The temperature display shows “LO”for temperatures below –50°C (–58°F) and “HI”for temperatures above
70°C (158°F).
•Though temperature readings are displayed up to 0°C (32°F) and greater than 41°C (105°F), note that such
readings are actually outside the guaranteed temperature range of this clock.
Switching between Celsius and Fahrenheit
•Push the °C/°Fbutton (4) to select either Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F).

immediately.
•Be sure to load the batteries with their positive (+) and negative (–) ends facing correctly.
•Never mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different brands.
•Never charge the batteries that come with the clock.
•Should batteries ever leak while in the clock, wipe out the fluid with a cloth, taking care not to let any get onto
your skin.
•Replace the batteries at least once a year, even if the current batteries are working properly.
•The batteries that come with the clock lose some of their power during transport and storage.
