used for an extended period of time. Follow the polarity (+/-) diagram in the
battery compartment. Promptly remove dead batteries from the device. Dispose

and release the “SELECT” button, located on the front of the display, to
manually cycle through readings and records.
AUTO CYCLE: In AUTO-CYCLE mode, the display will automatically cycle through current readings for INDOOR (display) and OUTDOOR (sensor) temperature and humidity. Each reading will be displayed for 5 seconds.

Placement for Maximum Accuracy
AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper placement of both the display and wired temperature sensor is critical to the accuracy and performance of this product.
Place the display in a dry area free of dirt and dust. The display stands upright for tabletop use, is wall-mountable or magnet-mountable.
To observe outdoor temperatures, the wired sensor must be placed outside. The sensor can be securely mounted by using the adhesive pad or the integrated hang hole. Take care not to damage the wired sensor during mounting.
Important Placement Guidelines
- To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place display and wired sensor out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources or vents.
- The wired temperature sensor is not waterproof and is not intended for permanent submersion in liquids. Submersion in liquid for more than 30 seconds may result in the failure of the wired sensor.
High & Low Records
High and low records are displayed for INDOOR (display) temperature and
humidity and OUTDOOR (sensor) temperature. High and low records are available
from the past 24 hour time period or over all-time.
All-time high and low records reflect the minimum and maximum readings since
the unit was powered on, since the batteries were changed, or since the unit
was manually reset – whichever event was the most recent.
During Manual Mode (page 4), you can cycle through readings and high/low
records by pressing the “SELECT” button. Data is displayed in the following
order:
CURRENT TEMPERATURE – OUTDOOR (sensor)
CURRENT TEMPERATURE – INDOOR (display)
CURRENT HUMIDITY – INDOOR (display)
