NOTE: When using the transmitter in the THERMO mode, care should be
taken to keep the transmitter away from direct heat sources such as direct
sunlight, heat ducts or fireplaces that could affect the temperature diode in the
transmitter. An incorrect temperature reading could result from exposure to
these other heat sources.
