ICE WARNING

The temperature range at which water begins to freeze and turns to ice is approx. 37° F (3° C) to 28° F (-2°C). It is during this period that ice becomes most slippery, creating hazardous surface conditions dangerous for travelling.

The BAR609HGA’s Ice Warning feature gives out temperature readings to warn you when the temperature is approaching freezing. If Channel 1 sensor falls between 37° F to 28° F (3° C to -2°C), the freeze alert icon will flash on the main unit display.

HEAT INDEX

Heat index is the temperature the body feels when heat and humidity are combined. The temperature you feel does not always correspond to the actual air temperature

and relative humidity. The heat index (apparent temperature) is how hot the heat-humidity combination makes you feel.

The BAR609HGA’s heat index feature advises 4 levels of warning if the temperature is high.
