Step Two

Mounting the Thermometer

Place your thermometer on a flat surface inside your car. For measuring outdoor temperature, the thermometer's sensor cord extends up to 10 feet.

Mounting the Bracket

1. Clean the desired location inside your car with a soft cloth.

2. Peel off one side of adhesive paper from the supplied mounting stickers, and attach the stickers to the back of the supplied mounting bracket. Then, peel off the paper on the other side of the sticker.

3. Firmly press the bracket onto the desired car location.

4. Slide the thermometer onto the bracket.

Mounting the Sensor

1. Peel off the paper from the back of the sensor to expose the adhesive tape.

2. Firmly press the sensor against a clean, flat surface on the outside of your vehicle.

2. Repeatedly press or hold down HR until the correct hour digits appear.

3. Repeatedly press or hold down MIN until the correct minute digits appear.

4. To select 12- or 24-hr time format, hold down C/F until the time display changes to the desired format.

Step Four

Using the Thermometer

1. Extend the sensor cord and attach the sensor to the outside of your car.

2. Repeatedly press MODE until the time and outdoor temperature (OUT), outdoor temperature (OUT) and voltage (V), or outdoor temperature (OUT) and indoor temperature (IN) appears on the display.

3. Repeatedly press C/F to select Celsius or Fahrenheit. The current temperature (IN or OUT, depending on your display view) appears.

Step Five

Using the Digital Voltage Meter

The supplied voltage meter is used to check your vehicle’s battery voltage and charging voltage.

1. Connect the supplied adapter to your vehicle’s cigarette light adapter.

2. Connect the other end to the unit’s 12V DC PLUG. The DC POWER LED flashes continuously.

3. For battery voltage, check the read ing one hour afte r turni ng your car engine of f. For char ging volt age, read the uni t whil e your car’s engine and main beam are turned on.

Care

Keep the thermometer dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Handle the thermometer carefully; do not drop it. Keep t he thermome ter away from dust and dirt, and w ipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.

: the current or charging voltage is less than 11.6V.

: the current or charging voltage is between 11.7V and 12.4V.

the current or charging voltage is between 12.5V and 12.9V.

the current or charging voltage is 13.0V or greater.

Step Six

Using the ICE Ale rt

You can set an alert to sound when outdoor temperatures ra nge f rom 30.2°F to 39.2°F (-1°C to 4°C), meaning there is potential for freezing rain,

sleet, snow, or icy road conditions. Press until

 appears to turn on the alert. When the

outdoor temperature is within this range, a beep sounds once every minute until you turn off the alert, or until the temperature rises or falls outside

of the range.

 remains on the di s pl ay as lo ng as

the temperature is less than 39.2°F (4°C).To turn the alert off, press

ALERT until  disappears.

Step Seven

Minimum and Maximum Memory

Repeatedly press MIN/MAX until MIN or MAX appears on the display to view the minimum or maximum recorded temperature within the last 24 hours. To clear memory, hold down about three seconds. Memory records are updated every day at 12:00 AM.

Cautions and Notes

• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly.

• Do not burn or bury batterie s.

• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.

• Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities.

• If you do not plan to use the thermometer for a month or more, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can damage electronic parts.

• Do not attach the thermometer to a surface that can get extremely hot, like the dashboard of a car.

• Do not mount the thermometer or sensor where they will be in direct sunlight.

• Do not place the thermomete r in water, or in a location where it is likely to get wet. Only the sensor and its cord are water-resistant.

• When mounting the sensor on a vehicle's windshield, be sure to place it out of the windshield wipers' path to avoid damaging the sensor.
