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. 

 

 Temperature station is blank: No letters, numbers or dashed lines 

 

  Check that the batteries are installed correctly. 

 

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. 

 

 Temperature station drains batteries quickly 

 

  Test a new set of alkaline batteries. Write down the date of installation and the voltage of the 

batteries. 

  When the batteries fail, please note the date and voltage again. This is helpful in determining the 

problem. 

  Check for leaking batteries, which may damage the temperature station. 

  Battery life is over 12 months when using reputable battery brands. 

 

 Temperature station has missing segments 

 

Explanation:

 When parts of numbers, letters, or pictures are missing on the display, it is often power
