Activate Thermometer

plastic tab at the base of the thermometer. Note:

The temperature may read higher than the actual

temperature at rst due to body heat from handling.

Placement for Maximum Accuracy

AcuRite products are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper
placement of the thermometer is critical to the accuracy and performance of
this product. To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place unit out of
direct sunlight and away from any heat sources.

Mounting the Thermometer

This product is water resistant and designed for general outdoor use, however,
to extend its life place it in an area protected from direct weather elements.

Clean the area where the suction cup will be adhered with a household
cleaner. Be sure surface is free of oil, grease, dust or other matter. Moisten the

suction cup. To mount, push rmly on the thermometer, pressing it against the

mounting surface to form a strong suction. For best suction, select surface that

is hard, smooth and non-porous. Do not use suction cup on wood or plaster.
