Installing/Replacing the Battery

Your indoor/outdoor thermometer requires one AAA battery, such as Radio
Shack Cat. No. 23-555.  Follow these steps to install or replace the
battery.

1.  Press down and slide off the battery compartment cover in the
    direction of the arrow.

2.  If necessary, remove and discard the old battery.

    Cautions:  Never leave a dead, old, or weak battery in the
               thermometer.  It can leak chemicals and corrode or damage
               electronic circuits.

               Always dispose of the old battery promptly and properly.

               Never burn a battery.

3.  Place one fresh AAA battery in the compartment as indicated by the
    polarity symbols (+ and -) marked inside the compartment.

    Note:  Use only a fresh battery of the required size and type.

4.  Replace the cover.

    Occasionally, the thermometer might not operate when you
    install the battery.  If this occurs, simply remove and
    reinstall the battery.

As soon as you install the battery, MAX, MIN or -1888 appears on the
display.  Then both the indoor and outdoor temperatures appear on the
display.
