OPERATION

Placement for Maximum Accuracy

AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper placement of both the display unit and temperature probe are critical to the accuracy and performance of this product.

Display Unit & Probe Placement

Place the display unit in a dry area free of dirt and dust. Display unit stands upright for tabletop use or is wall-mountable.

To observe outdoor temperatures, the wired temperature probe must be placed outside. The probe sensor can be securely mounted to a surface utilizing the adhesive pad or the integrated hang hole. Take care not to damage the sensor during mounting.

Important Placement Guidelines

To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place units out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources or vents.

The wired temperature probe is not waterproof and is not intended for permanent submersion in liquids. Submersion in liquid for more than 30 seconds may result in complete failure of the probe.

High & Low Records

High and low values are recorded for display (indoor) and probe (outdoor) temperature. High and low records reflect the minimum and maximum temperature recorded since the unit was powered on, since the battery was changed, or since it was manually reset (whichever was most recent).
