Acurite 00891W3 Thermometer with Wired Temperature Sensor User Guide

Quick guide from the manual

This document provides instructions for the Acurite 00891W3 thermometer. Before use, ensure you remove the clear protective film from the LCD screen. The device requires one AA alkaline battery (not included) for operation. If the display fades or the unit stops functioning, replace the battery.

Setup

To set up the device, slide open the battery compartment cover on the back. Insert one AA battery, ensuring the positive (+) and negative (-) polarities match the markings inside. Inside the battery compartment, you will also find the switch to select between Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F) and buttons to set the time.

Placement

Choose an indoor location free from water, dust, and direct heat sources to ensure accurate readings. The wired temperature probe must be routed outside. A common method is to pass the wire through a window opening, ensuring the window frame does not pinch or damage the wire or its plastic coating. The probe can be secured using the provided adhesive pad or the integrated screw/nail hole.

Operation

You can toggle between viewing the current time and indoor temperature by pressing the Indoor Temperature/Clock Selection button. To view recorded temperature or humidity extremes, press the corresponding MAX/MIN button. The MAX and MIN indicators will appear on the screen. To clear these values, press the C button. If readings exceed the specified range, the display will show LO or HI.
