Thermometer #106

HANGING YOUR THERMOMETER

Make sure to utilize the hanger molded into the backside of your thermometer. Use a securely anchored screw,
nail or hook to support the weight of your thermometer. Make certain that the screw/nail head is large enough
to prevent the thermometer from slipping off in the event that it is jarred or bumped.

HOW THE THERMOMETER WORKS

The thermometer will provide an accurate measurement of the air temperature in the vicinity of the instrument.
Dial type thermometers are operated by sensitive bi-metal coil spring mechanisms that respond to the air
temperature changes. The thermometer instrument has been calibrated at the factory and should not need
adjustment. As with all thermometers that are placed in a new location, you should always allow a period of
several hours for stabilization before determining whether it is reading accurately. Make sure that your
thermometer is not placed in direct sunlight, as this will affect the accuracy of your temperature reading.
Should you determine that an adjustment of the thermometer is needed, this can be achieved by gently rotating
the black thermometer housing on the back of the unit slowly in either direction until the correct temperature is
shown on the dial.
