BATTERIES
• Half of all warranty issues can be resolved with fresh batteries of the appropriate
voltage.
• We suggest name brand alkaline batteries.
• Use batteries dated six years in advance of the current year. Batteries dated earlier
than six years from now may still work but may be unstable in performance.
• Alkaline batteries manufactured this year will have an expiration date 10 years in the
future. Battery technology has improved, and batteries will maintain voltage longer in
storage. However, the environment the batteries reside in for the 10 years can deplete
the power.
• Good name brand alkaline batteries make less noise, which reduces the chance of RF
(radio frequency) interference from the battery compartment. A minimum voltage of
1.48V for each battery is necessary for proper performance.
INDOOR COMFORT METER FACTORY RESTART
The factory reset will return your indoor comfort meter to its default settings. This will clear
all previous recorded history, so you may want to write down data before taking this step.
• Basically, this is a great way to return your station to “out of the box” condition.
• All history records will be removed, so write down anything you want to keep.
To factory rest your station:
1. Remove batteries and press any button 20 times.
2. After 15 minutes insert fresh alkaline batteries.
