 Temperature station is dim 

 

Explanation: Most temperature stations have a gray background. Place the temperature 

station at eye level, to determine if it is dim. Temperature stations that sit in the sunlight 

can develop a cloudy film over time. 

 

This is generally a power related issue.  

 

Batteries 

may be overpowered or underpowered. Remove batteries from temperature 

station.  

 

Press any button 20 times. Leave the temperature station unpowered for 1-2 hours. 

 

Install fresh alkaline batteries with correct polarity.  

 

 Temperature station has distorted or frozen display 

 

Explanation: On a brand new temperature station, check for thin plastic film of printed 

scratch guard that may be on the screen of the temperature station. This thin piece of 

plastic has printed numbers for store displays. When the batteries are installed, the “real” 

numbers show behind the printed scratch guard and create distortion. 

 

With all power removed, the temperature station should be blank.  

 

If numbers still appear, please check for scratch guard. 

 

Power: 

 

Check that the batteries are installed correctly. 

 

This is generally a power related issue.  

 

Batteries 

may be overpowered or underpowered.  

 

Remove batteries from temperature station.  

 

Press any button 20 times. Leave the batteries out of the display for 2 hours.  

 

Insert batteries into the temperature station.
